GeometryImporter
The geometry importer.
Example
application = cf.Application.getInstance() project = application:NewProject() -- Auto determine the CAD file type and import it into the current project project.Importer.Geometry:ImportFile(FEKO_HOME..[[/shared/Resources/Automation/car_geometry.x_b]])
Inheritance
The GeometryImporter object is derived from the Object object.
Usage locations
The GeometryImporter object can be accessed from the following locations:
Property List
- AutoMergeWires
- Enables auto-merging of wires which touch. (Read/Write boolean)
- AutoStitchFaces
- Enables auto-stitching of faces which touch. (Read/Write boolean)
- ExtrudeEnabled
- Enables the extrusion option. (Read/Write boolean)
- HealingType
- The type of healing to be applied. (Read/Write ImportHealingTypeEnum)
- ImportScaleFactor
- The factor by which the imported geometry will be scaled. This value must be greater than 0. (Read/Write number)
- Label
- The object label. (Read/Write string)
- SimplifyModelEnabled
- Enables model simplification during importing. (Read/Write boolean)
- StitchTrimmedFacesEnabled
- Enables stitching of trimmed faces during importing. (Read/Write boolean)
- Type
- The object type string. (Read only string)
- UseTwoStepImportEnabled
- Enables the legacy two step import process during conversion. (Read/Write boolean)
Method List
- Delete ()
- Deletes the entity.
- Duplicate ()
- Duplicates the entity. (Returns a Object object.)
- GetProperties ()
- Returns a table of properties representing the state of the object. The properties table can be used with the SetProperties method to change multiple properties of the object in one step. (Returns a table object.)
- SetProperties (properties Object)
- Modifies the state of the object using the provided table of properties. This method is used to modify multiple properties of the object in a single step.
Static Function List
- GetDefaultProperties ()
- Creates a table containing the default settings to create an object. (Returns a table object.)
