36.40 TopologyPointSymmetry object

The TopologyPointSymmetry object defines a topology point symmetry geometric restriction.

The TopologyPointSymmetry object is derived from the GeometricRestriction object.

36.40.1 TopologyPointSymmetry(...)

This method creates a TopologyPointSymmetry object.

Path
          mdb.models[name].optimizationTasks[name].TopologyPointSymmetry
        

Required arguments

name

A String specifying the geometric restriction repository key.

region

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

csys

None or a DatumCsys object specifying the position of the symmetry point defined as the origin of a local coordinate system. If csys=None, the global coordinate system is used. When this member is queried, it returns an Int. The default value is None.

ignoreFrozenArea

A Boolean specifying whether to ignore frozen areas. The default value is OFF.

Return value

A TopologyPointSymmetry object.

Exceptions

None.


36.40.2 setValues(...)

This method modifies the TopologyPointSymmetry object.

Required arguments

None.

Optional arguments

The optional arguments to setValues are the same as the arguments to the TopologyPointSymmetry method, except for the name argument.

Return value

None

Exceptions

None.


36.40.3  Members

The TopologyPointSymmetry object has members with the same names and descriptions as the arguments to the TopologyPointSymmetry method.
