Model.voxel_lattice_hex_mesh_import

Model.voxel_lattice_hex_mesh_import(collection)

Imports an existing voxelization in to the current voxel session. Import is successful only if all the elements in the selection are voxels of the size exactly equal to the current voxel size and the grid is aligned to the global axes and (0,0,0).

This must be preceded by a call to Model.voxel_lattice_hex_mesh_init().

Parameters:

collection (Collection) – The collection containing the entities that the voxelization will be imported.

Example

Register voxels in comps with IDs 100 and 101 and drag elements with IDs 500 - 600 use the face with nodes with IDs 100 - 110 by ( 50,0,0 )

import hm
import hm.entities as ent

model = hm.Model()

# Creating a collection that contains the components with IDs 100 and 101
in_component_collection = hm.Collection(model, ent.Component, [100, 101])

# Creating a collection that contains the elements to be draged
filter_drag_elements = hm.FilterByEnumeration(ent.Element, list(range(500, 601)))
drag_elements_collection = hm.Collection(model, filter_drag_elements)

# Creating a collection that contains the nodes of the face to drag
filter_nodes = hm.FilterByEnumeration(ent.Node, list(range(100, 111)))
nodes_collection = hm.Collection(model, filter_nodes)
