JointLimits Object

Derived from: Base Object
Defined in namespace "adsk::fusion" and the header file is <Fusion/Components/JointLimits.h>

Description

Used to define limits for the range of motion of a joint.

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
isMaximumValueEnabled Gets and sets whether the maximum joint limit is enabled or not.
isMinimumValueEnabled Gets and sets whether the minimum joint limit is enabled or not.
isRestValueEnabled Gets and sets whether the resting joint value is enabled or not.
isValid Indicates if this object is still valid, i.e. hasn't been deleted or some other action done to invalidate the reference.
maximumValue The maximum value of the value. This is in either centimeters or radians depending on if the joint value this is associated with defines a distance or an angle.
minimumValue The minimum value of the value. This is in either centimeters or radians depending on if the joint value this is associated with defines a distance or an angle.
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():
restValue The resting state value. This is in either centimeters or radians depending on if the joint value this is associated with defines a distance or an angle.
