Model.linefromsurfedgecomp

Model.linefromsurfedgecomp(collection, comp_flag)

Takes selected surface edges or edges of selected surfaces and makes their copy as free lines. This function replaces the function Model.linefromsurfedge() which only creates a copy of edges in the component of the surfaces.

Parameters:

• collection (Collection) – The collection containing the entities to make their copies as free lines. Valid entities are surfaces and lines. If the entiities are surfaces, then a copy of all surface edges is created.

• comp_flag (int) – Flag to specify whether copied lines are created in current component (1) or in the component of surfaces they were copied from (0).

Example

Copy all surface edges of surface with ID 12 into the current component

import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

model.linefromsurfedgecomp(collection=hm.Collection(model, 12), comp_flag=1)
