Scale
Scale objects around a point.
Syntax
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"Scale");
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).selection(property);
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).set(property,<value>);
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).getType(property);
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).setAttribute(attribute,<value>);
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).getAttribute(attribute);
Description
Use model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"Scale") to scale geometry objects.
Use model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).selection("input") to select the objects to scale. The default selection is empty.
The following properties are available:
none | custom | integer between 1 and the number of colors in the current theme
The color to use. Active when color is set to custom.
on | off
on | off
all | obj | dom | bnd | edg | pnt | off
Show selections, if selresult is on, in physics, materials, and so on; in part instances; or in 3D from a plane geometry. obj is not available in a component’s geometry. dom, bnd, and edg are not available in all features.
this | part-instance feature
xyplane | work-plane feature
If factor is an array, the inputs are scaled by the factor[i] in the ith coordinate.
For information about the selresult and contributeto properties, see Selections of Geometric Entities.
Additional properties are available with the Design Module, see Scale.
The following attributes are available:
Table 3-152: Valid attributes
on | off | inherit
Designate the resulting objects as construction geometry. Use inherit to set the construction geometry attribute only if all input objects are construction geometry.
Example
The sequence below scales the unit circle by (1, 2) about (2, 3):
Code for Use with Java
Model model = ModelUtil.create("Model1");
model.component().create("comp1");
GeomSequence g = model.component("comp1").geom().create("geom1",2);
g.create("c1","Circle");
g.create("s1","Scale");
g.feature("s1").selection("input").set("c1");
g.feature("s1").set("factor", "1,2");
g.feature("s1").set("pos",new double[]{2,3});
g.run();
Code for Use with MATLAB
model = ModelUtil.create('Model1');
model.component.create('comp1');
g = model.component('comp1').geom.create('geom1',2);
g.create('c1','Circle');
g.create('s1','Scale');
g.feature('s1').selection('input').set('c1');
g.feature('s1').set('factor', '1,2');
g.feature('s1').set('pos',[2,3]);
g.run;
Compatibility
The property out is no longer available.
