Model.translatemark

Model.translatemark(collection, vector, distance)

Translates a selection of entities along a vector.

Parameters:

• collection (Collection) – The collection containing the entities to be translated.

• vector (hwTriple) – The hwTriple object defining the vector components used for translation. User can also supply a Python list of three doubles.

• distance (double) – The distance to translate.

Example

Translate node with ID 1 , 5.0 units along the y - axis

import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

# Creating collection containing node with ID 1
input_collection = hm.Collection(model, ent.Node, [1])

model.translatemark(collection=input_collection, vector=[0.0, 1.0, 0.0], distance=5.0)
