HMIN_start_trim_line()

Syntax

void HMIN_start_trim_line (int outer, int preference);

Type

HyperMesh hminlib Function

Description

Signals the start of a trimming line.

Inputs

outer

1, if this is the outer trimming loop of the current surface; otherwise, 0.

preference

Determines the type of trimming. Use:

• 0 - No preference.
• 1 - Object space trimming preferred.
• 2 - Parameter space trimming preferred.

This is currently ignored by HyperMesh. It is here so that when object space trimming of NURBS is provided, this useful information is provided.

Example

A trimming line consists of the start signal (this command), followed by a parameter space line, an object space line (or both), and then the end signal.

It is presumed that the parameter space line represents the object space line in the parameter space of the surface.

This command is only valid after a call to HMIN_startsurf() and before the corresponding call to HMIN_endsurf().

Errors

None.
