ArrangeEnvelopeDefinition Object 
Derived from: Base Object
Defined in namespace "adsk::fusion" and the header file is <Fusion/Arrange/ArrangeEnvelopeDefinition.h>
This functionality is provided as a preview
of intended future API capabilities. You are encouraged to use it and report any problems or suggestions using the
Fusion API and Scripts forum.
Because this is a preview of future functionality, there is the possibility that it will change, which will possibly
break any existing programs that use this functionality. Because of that, you should never deliver any programs that use
any preview capabilities. For a distributed program, you should wait until it has moved from preview to released state.
Description
The ArrangeEnvelope object is the base class for the different types of arrangement envelopes and provides access to the information that defines the envelope(s). This defines the settings of the envelope and the EnvelopeResult provides access to the resulting envelope and its contents.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. For example if you have a reference to an object and you want to check if it's a SketchLine you can use myObject.objectType == fusion.SketchLine.classType(). |
Properties
Name | Description |
frameWidth | Returns the parameter that controls the width of the envelope frame. This defines the offset distance of the objects from the edge of the frame. You can modify the value by using the properties on the returned ModelParameter object. |
isPartialArrangeAllowed | Gets and sets if a partial arrange is allowed for this envelope. |
isValid | Indicates if this object is still valid, i.e. hasn't been deleted or some other action done to invalidate the reference. |
objectSpacing | Returns the parameter that controls the space between objects in the arrangement. You can modify the value by using the properties on the returned ModelParameter object. |
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(): |
parentArrange | Returns the parent ArrangeFeature this envelope is associated with. |
placementClearance | Returns the parameter that controls the offset of the objects from the base plane of the arrangement (the "up" direction). You can modify the value by using the properties on the returned ModelParameter object. |
