Last update: 16.07.2026class compolyx.ModelingGroup(graph, obj, parent=None)
Class to manage modeling groups.
Access:
>>> import compolyx
>>> db = compolyx.DB()
>>> model = db.models['class40.1']
>>> mpg = model.modeling_groups['PlyGroup.1']
Creation:
>>> import compolyx
>>> db = compolyx.DB()
>>> model = db.models['class40.1']
>>> mpg_1 = model.create_modeling_group('PlyGroup.1')
