ArrangeFeatureInput.set3DEnvelope Method

Defines a 3D envelope input. Only a single envelope input can exist at time. Calling this method will cause any existing envelope input object to be invalid.

"arrangeFeatureInput_var" is a variable referencing an ArrangeFeatureInput object.returnValue = arrangeFeatureInput_var.set3DEnvelope(plane, length, width, height)

"arrangeFeatureInput_var" is a variable referencing an ArrangeFeatureInput object.

#include <Fusion/Arrange/ArrangeFeatureInput.h>

returnValue = arrangeFeatureInput_var->set3DEnvelope(plane, length, width, height);

"arrangeFeatureInput_var" is a variable referencing an ArrangeFeatureInput object.

#include <Fusion/Arrange/ArrangeFeatureInput.h>

returnValue = arrangeFeatureInput_var->set3DEnvelope(plane, length, width, height);

Parameters

plane

ConstructionPlane

The Construction plane the envelope will be on.

length

ValueInput

The length of the envelope. This is the size of the envelope as measured along the X axis of the specified construction plane.

This value will become a parameter when the arrangement is created. If the ValueInput is created using a real number it is in centimeters. If you use a string, it is evaluated the same as a value would be in the command dialog and uses the current document units. For example, if the document units are inch and you specific "0.25" it will result in 1/4 inch clearance. Using a string, you can also specify the units as part of the expression, such as "0.25 in + 2 mm". And you can define equations like "PartSize + 2 mm" where "PartSize" is an existing parameter.

width

ValueInput

The width of the envelope. This is the size of the envelope as measured along the Y axis of the specified construction plane.

This value will become a parameter when the arrangement is created. If the ValueInput is created using a real number it is in centimeters. If you use a string, it is evaluated the same as a value would be in the command dialog and uses the current document units. For example, if the document units are inch and you specific "0.25" it will result in 1/4 inch clearance. Using a string, you can also specify the units as part of the expression, such as "0.25 in + 2 mm". And you can define equations like "PartSize + 2 mm" where "PartSize" is an existing parameter.

height

ValueInput

The height of the envelope. This is the size of the envelope as measured along the Z axis of the specified construction plane.

This value will become a parameter when the arrangement is created. If the ValueInput is created using a real number it is in centimeters. If you use a string, it is evaluated the same as a value would be in the command dialog and uses the current document units. For example, if the document units are inch and you specific "0.25" it will result in 1/4 inch clearance. Using a string, you can also specify the units as part of the expression, such as "0.25 in + 2 mm". And you can define equations like "PartSize + 2 mm" where "PartSize" is an existing parameter.
