Return type:

None

Example

To set the 2rd knot value for IGA 3d nurbs xyz ig3x as 24.5:

ig3x.SetTKnotVector(1, 24.5)
IGA3DNurbsXYZ.Sketch(redraw=Oasys.gRPC.defaultArg)

Sketches the IGA 3D Nurbs XYZ. The IGA 3D Nurbs XYZ will be sketched until you either call IGA3DNurbsXYZ.Unsketch(), IGA3DNurbsXYZ.UnsketchAll(), Model.UnsketchAll(), or delete the model

Parameters:

redraw (boolean) – Optional. If model should be redrawn or not after the IGA 3D Nurbs XYZ is sketched. If omitted redraw is true. If you want to sketch several IGA 3D Nurbs XYZs and only redraw after the last one then use false for redraw and call View.Redraw()

Returns:

No return value

Return type:

None

Example

To sketch IGA 3D Nurbs XYZ ig3x:

ig3x.Sketch()
IGA3DNurbsXYZ.Unsketch(redraw=Oasys.gRPC.defaultArg)

Unsketches the IGA 3D Nurbs XYZ

Parameters:

redraw (boolean) – Optional. If model should be redrawn or not after the IGA 3D Nurbs XYZ is unsketched. If omitted redraw is true. If you want to unsketch several IGA 3D Nurbs XYZs and only redraw after the last one then use false for redraw and call View.Redraw()

Returns:

No return value

Return type:

None

Example

To unsketch IGA 3D Nurbs XYZ ig3x:

ig3x.Unsketch()
IGA3DNurbsXYZ.ViewParameters()

Object properties that are parameters are normally returned as the integer or float parameter values as that is virtually always what the user would want. This function temporarily changes the behaviour so that if a property is a parameter the parameter name is returned instead. This can be used with ‘method chaining’ (see the example below) to make sure a property argument is correct

Returns:

IGA3DNurbsXYZ object

Return type:

IGA3DNurbsXYZ

Example

To check if IGA3DNurbsXYZ property ig3x.example is a parameter by using the IGA3DNurbsXYZ.GetParameter() method:

if ig3x.ViewParameters().GetParameter(ig3x.example):
    do_something..
IGA3DNurbsXYZ.Xrefs()

Returns the cross references for this IGA 3D Nurbs XYZ

Returns:

Xrefs object

Return type:

Xrefs

Example

To get the cross references for IGA 3D Nurbs XYZ ig3x:

xrefs = ig3x.Xrefs()
