`SectionPlanes`

class Ansys.Mechanical.Graphics.SectionPlanes

Bases: object

Represents the collection of section planes used by graphics

Overview

Methods

Name	Description
Add	Adds the given SectionPlane object to the collection to modify the view. Currently only 6 SectionPlane objects in the collection can be activated at once.
Clear	Clears the collection of all SectionPlane objects.
CreateSectionPlane	Creates a SectionPlane based on a coordinate system and plane orientation.
Remove	Removes the requested SectionPlane from the collection.
RemoveAt	Removes the SectionPlane at the given index.

Properties

Name	Description
Capping	Gets or Sets the Capping style of the Section Plane
Count	The number of section planes in the collection.
ShowHatching	Controls whether to render hatch lines (the black parallel lines) on the capped surfaces of section planes. Default: true
ShowWholeElement	Gets or Sets the Element Visibility of the Section Plane

Method detail

SectionPlanes.Add(sectionPlane: Ansys.Mechanical.Graphics.SectionPlane) → None

Adds the given SectionPlane object to the collection to modify the view. Currently only 6 SectionPlane objects in the collection can be activated at once.

SectionPlanes.Clear() → None

Clears the collection of all SectionPlane objects.

SectionPlanes.CreateSectionPlane(coordinateSystem: Ansys.ACT.Automation.Mechanical.CoordinateSystem, planeOrientation: Ansys.Mechanical.DataModel.MechanicalEnums.Common.PlaneOrientation) → Ansys.Mechanical.Graphics.SectionPlane

Creates a SectionPlane based on a coordinate system and plane orientation.

SectionPlanes.Remove(sectionPlane: Ansys.Mechanical.Graphics.SectionPlane) → bool

Removes the requested SectionPlane from the collection.

SectionPlanes.RemoveAt(index: int) → None

Removes the SectionPlane at the given index.
