Syntax
Copy
public ConnectiveGeometry AddLeg(
	ConnectiveGeometry geometry,
	LineSegment segment1,
	Contour polygon,
	LineSegment segment2,
	BentPlateBendShape bendShape
)

Parameters

geometry
Type: Tekla.Structures.ModelConnectiveGeometry
ConnectiveGeometry used to create a connection with.
segment1
Type: Tekla.Structures.Geometry3dLineSegment
the two connection points on this instance geometry
polygon
Type: Tekla.Structures.ModelContour
the polygonal contour to add to this geometry
segment2
Type: Tekla.Structures.Geometry3dLineSegment
the two connection points on polygon geometry
bendShape
Type: Tekla.Structures.ModelBentPlateBendShape
Shape of the bend that connects the leg

Return Value

Type: ConnectiveGeometry
Modified ConnectiveGeometry if command succeeded or geometry otherwise.
Exceptions
ExceptionCondition
ConnectiveGeometryExceptionThrown if could not create or modify ConnectiveGeometry instance.
ArgumentExceptionThrown when geometry is a stand-alone bend geometry, meaning that the first GeometrySection is a BendSurfaceNode.
