Model.selfstitchcombine2

Model.selfstitchcombine2(collection, allow_self_stitch=1, allow_stitch_different_surfs=1, stitch_only_free_edges=1, allow_small_edge_collapse=0, equivalence_to='across_comp', tolerance_across=0.0, tolerance_within=0.0)

Performs equivalencing of edges within surfaces or/and between surfaces.

Parameters:

• collection (Collection) – The collection containing the surface entities to operate on.

• allow_self_stitch (unsigned int) –

  Specifies whether to consider stitching edges of the same surface. Valid values are:

  0 - Do not consider self-stitching.

  1 - Consider self-stitching (same surface edges). (default)

• allow_stitch_different_surfs (unsigned int) –

  Specifies whether to consider stitching edges between different surfaces. Valid values are:

  0 - Do not stitch edges between different surfaces.

  1 - Stitch edges between different surfaces. (default)

• stitch_only_free_edges (unsigned int) –

  Specifies whether to restrict to free edges for stitching. Valid values are:

  0 - Consider all edges.

  1 - Consider free edges only. (default)

• allow_small_edge_collapse (unsigned int) –

  Specifies whether to allow collapsing small edges when stitching. Valid values are:

  0 - Do not collapse small edges. (default)

  1 - Collapse small edges.

• equivalence_to (hwString) –

  Specifies which edges to consider for stitching. Valid values are:

  across_comp - Allow equivalence between components. (default)

  within_comp_only - Do not equivalence between components.

  to_connected_surfs - Equivalence between selected surfaces and surfaces connected to selection.

  within_selection - Equivalence only within the subset of selected surfaces.

• tolerance_across (double) – The equivalencing tolerance value for edges of different surfaces. The default geometry tolerance is used if this input is not specified.

• tolerance_within (double) – The equivalencing tolerance for edges within a single surface. The default geometry tolerance is used if this input is not specified.

Example

Equivalence edges between all displayed surfaces using a tolerance value of 0.2

import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

# Creating a collection that contains all the displayed surfaces
surfaces_displayed_collection = hm.CollectionByDisplayed(model, ent.Surface)

model.selfstitchcombine2(
collection=surfaces_displayed_collection, tolerance_across=0.2, tolerance_within=0.2
)
