Methods

Name Description

classType Static function that all classes support that returns the type of the class as a string. The returned string matches the string returned by the objectType property.

item Function that returns the specified rigid group using an index into the collection.
itemByName Function that returns the specified rigid group using a name.

Properties

Name Description
count Returns number of joint origins in the collection.
isValid Indicates if this object is still valid, i.e. hasn't been deleted or some other action done to invalidate the reference.
objectType This property is supported by all objects in the API and returns a string that contains the full name (namespace::objecttype) describing the type of the object.

It's often useful to use this in combination with the classType method to see if an object is a certain type. For example: if obj.objectType == adsk.core.Point3D.classType():
