Parameters used for BOI surface creation in the given axis.

Parameters:

model: Model

Model to create a CreateBOIParams object with default parameters.

boi_type: BOIType, optional

Type of BOI offsetting.

perform_initial_wrap: bool, optional

Perform an initial wrap to create a BOI if BOI type is OFFSETSURFACE.

wrap_size: float, optional

Set wrap size greater than the largest gap size in the input when performing_initial_wrap is true.

flow_dir: FlowDirection, optional

Assigns the offset direction of inflation.

side_scale: float, optional

BOI side scaling factor.

wake_scale: float, optional

BOI flow direction scaling factor.

wake_levels: int, optional

BOI levels.

suggested_part_name: str, optional

Suggested part name for created BOI surfaces.

suggested_label_prefix: str, optional

Suggested label name for created BOI surfaces.

number_of_threads: int, optional

Number of threads for multithreading.

json_data: dict, optional

JSON dictionary to create a CreateBOIParams object with provided parameters.
