 | ShapeItem Methods |
The ShapeItem type exposes the following members.
Methods| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | CleanAndModify |
Cleans and stores the brep into the shape catalog
|
| Delete |
Deletes a shape from shape catalog based on the shape name.
|
 | DeleteMetadata |
Delete the Shape item's metadata.
|
| Export |
Exports the shape item in *.tsc-format to the to given file name.
If path is not given shape is exported to model folder.
If filename is empty shape name is used as filename.
|
| GetAllMetadataKeys |
Get the Shape item's metadata keys.
|
| GetInstanceCount |
Get the number of instances used in the model of a shape
|
| GetMetadata |
Get the Shape item's metadata.
|
| Insert |
Inserts a shape to the shape catalog based on the shape geometry (does not allow duplicate geometry).
|
| InsertOrGetGuidsOfShapesWithMatchingGeometry |
Inserts a shape to the shape catalog based on the shape geometry (does not allow duplicate geometry).
If, based on fingerprint, the geometry already exists it populates a list of Guids of shapes using that same geometry.
|
| InsertUsingNormals |
Inserts a shape to the shape catalog using the shape geometry. Uses vertex normals
to determine edge visibility. If the normal vectors of the vertices belonging to one
geometrical location are close enough, the edge will be considered smooth and will be
marked as hidden.
|
| InsertUsingNormalsAllowDuplicates |
Inserts a shape to the shape catalog using the shape geometry allowing duplicates. Uses
vertex normals to determine edge visibility. If the normal vectors of the vertices belonging
to one geometrical location are close enough, the edge will be considered smooth and will be
marked as hidden.
|
| Modify |
Modifies a shape in the shape catalog based on the shape name or if not found, based on shape guid.
|
| Rename |
Renames a shape in the shape catalog with the given shape name.
|
| Select |
Selects the shape from the database based on the name given in this instance.
|
| Select(String) |
Selects the shape based on the given name from the database.
|
| SetHandlePoints |
Set the Shape item's Handle Points
|
| SetMetadata |
Set the Shape item's metadata. Inserts the metadata if key is not found, otherwise modifies existing data.
