FilletEdgeSetInputs.addVariableRadiusEdgeSet Method

Adds a single edge or set of tangent edges to the fillet feature input. Some settings are initialized with a default value and can be set by modifying properties on the returned VariableRadiusFilletEdgeSetInput object.

Syntax

Python
C++

"filletEdgeSetInputs_var" is a variable referencing a FilletEdgeSetInputs object.returnValue = filletEdgeSetInputs_var.addVariableRadiusEdgeSet(tangentEdges, startRadius, endRadius, isTangentChain)

"filletEdgeSetInputs_var" is a variable referencing a FilletEdgeSetInputs object.

#include <Fusion/Features/FilletEdgeSetInputs.h>

returnValue = filletEdgeSetInputs_var->addVariableRadiusEdgeSet(tangentEdges, startRadius, endRadius, isTangentChain);

Parameters

tangentEdges

ObjectCollection

An object collection containing a single edge or multiple edges. Multiple edges must be tangentially connected and added to the collection in their connected order. If a single edge is input, you can use the isTangentChain argument to automatically find any tangentially connected edges.

startRadius

ValueInput

A ValueInput object that defines the starting radius of the fillet. If a single edge is being filleted, the start radius is at the start end of the edge. If multiple tangent edges are being filleted the start radius is the start end of the first edge in the collection.

If the ValueInput uses a real then it is interpreted as centimeters. If it is a string then the units can be defined as part of the string (i.e. "2 in") or if no units are specified it is interpreted using the current default units for length.

endRadius

ValueInput

A ValueInput object that defines the ending radius of the fillet. If a single edge is being filleted, the end radius is at the end of the edge. If multiple tangent edges are being filleted the end radius is the open end of the last edge in the collection.

If the ValueInput uses a real then it is interpreted as centimeters. If it is a string then the units can be defined as part of the string (i.e. "2 in") or if no units are specified it is interpreted using the current default units for length.

isTangentChain

boolean

A boolean value for setting whether or not edges that are tangentially connected to the single input edge will also be filleted.

Samples

Fillet Feature API Sample

Demonstrates creating fillets using the various types of fillets. Create a new design and add a box that is at least 2 cm on each side. The script creates a constant radius, variable radius and chord length fillets. After creating each one, it deletes it and then creates the next. To see any of the fillets that were deleted, undo to get the fillet back.

Type	Description
VariableRadiusFilletEdgeSetInput	Returns the newly created VariableRadiusFilletEdgeSetInput. This object provides access to additional settings.
