TransientBRep.Transform Method

Parent Object: TransientBRep

Description

Method that transforms the input SurfaceBody.

Remarks

This method is only valid for transient SurfaceBody object.

Syntax

TransientBRep.Transform( SurfaceBody As SurfaceBody, Transform As Matrix )

Parameters

Name Type Description
SurfaceBody SurfaceBody Input SurfaceBody object.
Transform Matrix Input Matrix that defines the transform to apply to the input B-Rep entity. This matrix can only define rotations and translations, it cannot define scaling, shearing, or perspective and will fail for these cases.

Samples

Name Description
Body Imprinting and matching the results This sample is intended to demonstrate a technique of finding the matching surfaces between the original input bodies and output imprinted bodies. This relies on transient keys, which is a unique ID associated with each B-Rep entity. A transient key is only good as long as the model is not recomputed.
Imprint bodies within an assembly. This sample demonstrates creating imprinted bodies from two selected occurrences in an assembly.
Tapered Surface Using Offset Curve and Ruled Surface This sample demonstrates much of the wire body creation functionality. To run the sample you must have a part open and select a planar face. This sample then creates a trasient wire body using the geometry of the outside of the selected face. It then transforms and offsets that wire, and finally creates a ruled surface between the original wire and the offset wire. A base feature is created with the ruled surface.
