Method detail

GeometryImport.Activate() → None

Activate the current object.

GeometryImport.AddComment() → Ansys.ACT.Automation.Mechanical.Comment

Creates a new child Comment.

GeometryImport.AddFigure() → Ansys.ACT.Automation.Mechanical.Figure

Creates a new child Figure.

GeometryImport.AddImage(filePath: str) → Ansys.ACT.Automation.Mechanical.Image

Creates a new child Image.
If a filePath is provided, the image will be loaded from that file,
if not, the image will be a screen capture of the Geometry window.

GeometryImport.CopyTo(other: Ansys.ACT.Automation.Mechanical.DataModelObject) → None

Copies all visible properties from this object to another.

GeometryImport.CreateParameter(propName: str) → Ansys.ACT.Interfaces.Mechanical.IParameter

Creates a new parameter for a Property.

GeometryImport.Duplicate() → Ansys.Mechanical.DataModel.Interfaces.IDataModelObject

Creates a copy of the current DataModelObject.

GeometryImport.GetChildren(recurses: bool, children: List[ChildrenType]) → List[ChildrenType]

Gets the list of children, filtered by type.

GeometryImport.GetFormat() → Ansys.Mechanical.DataModel.Enums.GeometryImportPreference.Format

Gets the format of the geometry file/data for the most recent import.

GeometryImport.GetGeometryURI() → str

Gets the Geometry URI for the most recent import. The Universal Resource Identifier,
which on disk would be "file://..."

GeometryImport.GetParameter(propName: str) → Ansys.ACT.Interfaces.Mechanical.IParameter

Gets the parameter corresponding to the given property.

GeometryImport.GetPreferences() → Ansys.ACT.Mechanical.Utilities.GeometryImportPreferences

Gets the preferences for most recent import operations with the geometry file/data.

GeometryImport.GroupAllSimilarChildren() → None

Run the GroupAllSimilarChildren action.

GeometryImport.GroupSimilarObjects() → Ansys.ACT.Automation.Mechanical.TreeGroupingFolder

Run the GroupSimilarObjects action.

GeometryImport.Import(geometryURI: str, format: Ansys.Mechanical.DataModel.Enums.GeometryImportPreference.Format, preferences: Ansys.ACT.Mechanical.Utilities.GeometryImportPreferences) → None

Import/reload geometry from the CAD file using the provided preferences. *** If no
preference argument is provided, i.e., null is used (also the default argument), then
default values from Mechanical preferences will be used (Mechanical: File -> Options:
Import; this will need to be implemented). Previously used preferences are always purged
during an import operation. *** The parts will be read into the Geometry.

GeometryImport.PropertyByAPIName(name: str) → Ansys.ACT.Automation.Mechanical.Property

Get a property by its API name.
If multiple properties have the same API Name, only the first property with that name will be returned.

GeometryImport.PropertyByName(name: str) → Ansys.ACT.Automation.Mechanical.Property

Get a property by its unique name.

GeometryImport.RemoveParameter(propName: str) → None

Removes the parameter from the parameter set corresponding to the given property.
