HybridShapeSymmetry (Object)

Represents the hybrid shape symmetry feature object.
Role: To access the data of the symmetry shape feature object. The data includes:

LICENSING INFORMATION: Creation of volume result requires GSO License
if GSO License is not granted , settting of Volume context has not effect

Use the CATIAHybridShapeFactory to create HybridShapeFeature object.

Property Index

CreationMode
Returns or sets the creation mode(creation or modification).
ElemToSymmetry
Returns or sets the element to transform.
Reference
Returns or sets the reference element.
VolumeResult
Returns or sets the volume result.

Properties


o Property CreationMode() As
Returns or sets the creation mode(creation or modification).
Legal values: True if the result is a creation feature and False if the result is a modification feature.
Example:
This example sets that the mode of the hybShpSymmetry hybrid shape symmetry to creation
 hybShpSymmetry.CreationMode = True
 
o Property ElemToSymmetry() As
Returns or sets the element to transform.
Example:
This example retrieves in Elem the element to transform for the Symmetry hybrid shape feature.
 Dim Elem As Reference
 Set Elem = Symmetry.ElemToSymmetry
o Property Reference() As
Returns or sets the reference element.This element can be a point, a line or a plane.
Sub-element(s) supported (see
Boundary object): PlanarFace, Edge or Vertex.
Example:
This example retrieves in Ref the reference element for the Symmetry hybrid shape feature.
 Dim Ref As Reference
 Set Ref = Symmetry.Reference
o Property VolumeResult() As
Returns or sets the volume result.
Legal values: True if the result of symmetry is required as volume (option is effective only in case of volumes, requires GSO License) and False if it is needed as surface .
Example:
This example sets that the result of the hybShpSymmetry hybrid shape symmetry is volume.
 hybShpSymmetry.VolumeResult = True
