Create a new oriented selection set.

name: The name of the oriented element set.
id: The ID of the oriented element set.
orientation_point: Orientation point for the oriented selection set.
orientation_direction: Orientation direction for the oriented selection set.
element_sets: Element sets.
geometries: Virtual geometries.
rosettes: Rosettes for the oriented selection set.
rosette_selection_method: Method to calculate element orientation : (‘minimum_angle’, ‘maximum_angle’, ‘minimum_distance’, ‘minimum_angle_superposed’, ‘minimum_distance_superposed’, ‘maximum_angle_superposed’, ‘ansys_classic’, or ‘tabular_values’).
reference_direction_field: Table column used to compute reference directions.
draping: Draping enabled.
draping_seed_point: Seed point used to start draping.
draping_direction: Direction for draping.
auto_draping_direction: Generate direction for draping.
draping_mesh_size: Mesh size for draping.
use_default_draping_mesh_size: Enable this property to use the default size for the draping mesh. The default is the average element size of the shell mesh.
draping_material_model: Material model for draping, either ‘woven’ or ‘unidirectional’.
draping_ud_coefficient: Coefficient for the unidirectional draping material model.
rotation_angle: Angle to rotate the reference directions around the orientation directions (in degree).
