CSPrimitives (Base Class)

class CSXCAD.CSPrimitives.CSPrimitives

Bases: object

Virtual base class for all primitives, cannot be created!

AddTransform(transform, *args, **kw)

Add a transformation to this primitive.

GetBoundBox()

Get the bounding box for this primitive

Returns: (2,3) ndarray – bounding box for this primitive

GetCoordinateSystem()

Returns: coordinate system (0 : Cartesian, 1 : Cylindrical) or None

GetDimension()

Get the dimension of this primitive

Returns: int – dimension 0..3

GetID()

Get the ID for this primitive

Returns: int – ID for this primitive

GetPrimitiveUsed(): Get if this primitive has been used (used flag set)

GetPriority()

Get the priority for this primitive

Returns: int – Priority for this primitive

GetProperty()

Get the property for this primitive

Returns: CSProperties.CSProperties

GetTransform()

Get the transformation class assigned to this primitive. If this primitve does not have any, it will be created.

Returns: CSTransform class

See also

CSXCAD.CSTransform.CSTransform

GetType()

Get the type as int for this primitive

Returns: int – Type for this primitive (e.g. 0 –> Point, 1 –> Box, …)

GetTypeName()

Get the type as string (UTF-8) for this primitive

Returns: str – Type name for this primitive (“Point”, “Box”, …)

HasTransform()

Check if this primitive has a transformation attached. It will not create one if it does not.

Returns: bool

IsInside(coord, tol=0)

Check if a given coordinate is inside this primitive.

Parameters: coord – (3,) array – coordinate
Returns: bool

SetCoordinateSystem(cs_type)

Set the coordinate system type (Cartesian or cylindrical) for this primitive. If set to None, the mesh type of the assigned rect grid will be used.

Parameters: cs_type – coordinate system (0 : Cartesian, 1 : Cylindrical) or None

See also

CSXCAD.CSRectGrid.CSRectGrid.SetMeshType

SetPrimitiveUsed(val): Set used flag.

SetPriority(val)

Set the priority for this primitive

Parameters: val – int – Higher priority values will override primitives with a lower priority

Update()

Trigger an internal update and report success and error message

Returns: bool, err_msg – success and error message (empty on success)

static fromType(prim_type, pset, prop, no_init=False, **kw)

Create a primtive specified by the prim_type

Parameters

prim_type – Primitive type
pset – ParameterSet to assign to the new primitive
prop – CSProperty to assign to the new primitive
no_init – do not create an actual C++ instance
