| shapes, | |||
clip = False |
|||
| ) |

from the given shapes and the given cutting plane. If clip is True, the cutvolume will
also cut off everything outside the cutplane projection

type (Wall, Structure, Window, WindowGlass)

◆ getExtrusionData()
| def ArchCommands.getExtrusionData | ( | shape, | |
sortmethod = "area" |
|||
| ) |
If a shape has been extruded, returns the base face, and extrusion vector.
Determines if a shape appears to have been extruded from some base face, and
extruded at the normal from that base face. IE: it looks like a cuboid.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuboid#Rectangular_cuboid
If this is the case, returns what appears to be the base face, and the vector
used to make that extrusion.
The base face is determined based on the sortmethod parameter, which can either
be:
"area" = Of the faces with the smallest area, the one with the lowest z coordinate.
"z" = The face with the lowest z coordinate.
a 3D vector = the face which center is closest to the given 3D point
Parameters
----------
shape: <Part.Shape>
Shape to examine.
sortmethod: {"area", "z"}
Which sorting algorithm to use to determine the base face.
Returns
-------
Extrusion data: list
Two item list containing the base face, and the vector used to create the
extrusion. In that order.
Failure: None
Returns None if the object does not appear to be an extrusion.

◆ getHost()
| def ArchCommands.getHost | ( | obj, | |
strict = True |
|||
| ) |
getHost(obj,[strict]): returns the host of the current object. If strict is true (default),
the host can only be an object of a higher level than the given one, or in other words, if a wall
is contained in another wall which is part of a floor, the floor is returned instead of the parent wall
◆ getShapeFromMesh()
| def ArchCommands.getShapeFromMesh | ( | mesh, | |
fast = True, |
|||
tolerance = 0.001, |
|||
flat = False, |

cut = True |

of objects
Referenced by ArchStructure.placeAlongEdge().
◆ makeComponent()
| def ArchCommands.makeComponent | ( | baseobj = None, |
|
name = "Component", |
|||
delete = False |
|||
| ) |
makeComponent([baseobj]): creates an undefined, non-parametric Arch
component from the given base object
Referenced by cloneComponent().
◆ makeCompoundFromSelected()
| def ArchCommands.makeCompoundFromSelected | ( | objects = None | ) |
makeCompoundFromSelected([objects]): Creates a new compound object from the given
subobjects (faces, edges) or from the selection if objects is None
◆ makeFace()
| def ArchCommands.makeFace | ( | wires, | |
method = 2, |
|||
cleanup = False |
|||
| ) |
makeFace(wires): makes a face from a list of wires, finding which ones are holes
Referenced by ArchPanel.CommandPanelSheet.Activated(), getShapeFromMesh(), and ArchVRM.Renderer.projectFace().
◆ makeIfcSpreadsheet()
| def ArchCommands.makeIfcSpreadsheet | ( | archobj = None | ) |
◆ mergeCells()
| def ArchCommands.mergeCells | ( | objectslist | ) |
mergeCells(objectslist): merges the objects in the given list
into one. All objects must be of the same type and based on the Cell
object (cells, floors, buildings, or sites).

◆ meshToShape()
| def ArchCommands.meshToShape | ( | obj, | |
mark = True, |
|||
fast = True, |
|||
tol = 0.001, |
|||
flat = False, |
|||
cut = True |
|||
| ) |
meshToShape(object,[mark,fast,tol,flat,cut]): turns a mesh into a shape, joining coplanar facets. If
mark is True (default), non-solid objects will be marked in red. Fast uses a faster algorithm by
building a shell from the facets then removing splitter, tol is the tolerance used when converting
mesh segments to wires, flat will force the wires to be perfectly planar, to be sure they can be
turned into faces, but this might leave gaps in the final shell. If cut is true, holes in faces are
made by subtraction (default)

◆ printMessage()

◆ projectToVector()

vector

◆ pruneIncluded()
| def ArchCommands.pruneIncluded | ( | objectslist, | |
strict = False |
|||
| ) |
pruneIncluded(objectslist,[strict]): removes from a list of Arch objects, those that are subcomponents of
another shape-based object, leaving only the top-level shapes. If strict is True, the object
is removed only if the parent is also part of the selection.
◆ rebuildArchShape()
| def ArchCommands.rebuildArchShape | ( | objects = None | ) |
rebuildArchShape([objects]): takes the faces from the base shape of the given (or selected
if objects is None) Arch objects, and tries to rebuild a valid solid from them.
◆ removeComponents()
| def ArchCommands.removeComponents | ( | objectsList, | |
host = None |
|||
| ) |
removeComponents(objectsList,[hostObject]): removes the given component or
the components from the given list from their parents. If a host object is
specified, this function will try adding the components as holes to the host
object instead.

◆ removeCurves()
| def ArchCommands.removeCurves | ( | shape, | |
dae = False, |
|||
tolerance = 5 |
|||
| ) |
removeCurves(shape,dae,tolerance=5): replaces curved faces in a shape
with faceted segments. If dae is True, DAE triangulation options are used
References getShapeFromMesh(), and importDAE.triangulate().
◆ removeShape()
| def ArchCommands.removeShape | ( | objs, | |
mark = True |
|||
| ) |
removeShape(objs,mark=True): takes an arch object (wall or structure) built on a cubic shape, and removes
the inner shape, keeping its length, width and height as parameters. If mark is True, objects that cannot
be processed by this function will become red.

◆ setAsSubcomponent()
| def ArchCommands.setAsSubcomponent | ( | obj | ) |
Sets the given object properly to become a subcomponent (addition, subtraction)
of an Arch component
References getDefaultColor().
Referenced by removeComponents(), and ArchComponent.removeFromComponent().
◆ splitMesh()
| def ArchCommands.splitMesh | ( | obj, | |
mark = True |
|||
| ) |
splitMesh(object,[mark]): splits the given mesh object into separated components.
If mark is False, nothing else is done. If True (default), non-manifold components
will be painted in red.
Referenced by printWarning().
◆ string_replace()
| def ArchCommands.string_replace | ( | text, | |
| pattern, | |||
| replacement | |||
| ) |
if py2 isn't supported anymore calls to this function
should be replaced with:
`text.replace(pattern, replacement)`
for python2 the encoding must be done, as unicode replacement leads to something like this:
```
>>> a = u'abc mm ^3'
>>> a.replace(u"^3", u"³")
u'abc mm \xc2\xb3'
```

◆ survey()
| def ArchCommands.survey | ( | callback = False | ) |
survey(): starts survey mode, where you can click edges and faces to get their lengths or area.
Clicking on no object (on an empty area) resets the count.
References string_replace().
◆ toggleIfcBrepFlag()
| def ArchCommands.toggleIfcBrepFlag | ( | obj | ) |
toggleIfcBrepFlag(obj): toggles the IFC brep flag of the given object, forcing it
to be exported as brep geometry or not.
