The SlideRegionControl object defines a slide region control geometric restriction.
The SlideRegionControl object is derived from the GeometricRestriction object.
import optimization
mdb.models[name].optimizationTasks[name].geometricRestrictions[name]
This method creates a SlideRegionControl object.
mdb.models[name].optimizationTasks[name].SlideRegionControl
Required arguments
A String specifying the geometric restriction repository key.
A VertexArray object of length 2 specifying the axis of revolution. Instead of through a Vertex, each point may be specified through a tuple of coordinates. This is used when approach is TURN.
A Region object specifying the region to which the geometric restriction is applied. When used with a TopologyTask, there is no default value. When used with a ShapeTask, the default value is MODEL.
Optional arguments
A SymbolicConstant specifying the restriction approach. The SymbolicConstant FREE_FORM indicates a free-form slide region, and the SymbolicConstant TURN indicates that the restriction should conserve a turnable surface. Possible values are FREE_FORM and TURN. The default value is FREE_FORM.
None or a DatumCsys object specifying the local coordinate system. If csys=None, the global coordinate system is used. When this member is queried, it returns an Int. This is used when approach is TURN. The default value is None.
None or a Region object specifying the free-form region. This is used when approach is FREE_FORM. The default value is None.
A Boolean specifying whether to ignore the geometric restriction in the first design cycle. The default value is ON.
None or a Region object specifying the region to revolve into a slide region. This is used when approach is TURN. The default value is None.
A Float specifying the geometric tolerance in the 1-direction. This is used when approach is TURN. The default value is 0.01.
A Float specifying the geometric tolerance in the 2-direction. This is used when approach is TURN. The default value is 0.01.
A Float specifying the geometric tolerance in the 3-direction. This is used when approach is TURN. The default value is 0.01.
Return value
A SlideRegionControl object.
Exceptions
This method modifies the SlideRegionControl object.
Required arguments
Optional arguments
The optional arguments to setValues are the same as the arguments to the SlideRegionControl method, except for the name argument.
Return value
Exceptions
The SlideRegionControl object has members with the same names and descriptions as the arguments to the SlideRegionControl method.
