Syntax
*multi_trim_by_offset_edges input_surf_mark=<mark_id> input_line_mark=<mark_id> offset_distance=<value> offset_count=<value>
Type
HyperMesh Tcl Modify Command
Description
Offsets the selected edges and trims the input surfaces using the offset edges. You have the option to offset the original edges with the same distance multiple times.
Inputs
- input_surf_mark=<mark_id>
- The ID of the mark containing the input surfaces. Valid values are 1 and 2.
- input_line_mark=<mark_id>
- The ID of the mark containing the input edges to be used for offsetting and trimming the input surfaces. Valid values are 1 and 2.
- offset_distance=<value>
- The offset distance.
- offset_count=<value>
- The number of offsets to be performed. The value should be greater than 0.
Example
To trim surface 2 by offsetting edges 10, 12, 14, 15 by distance 5.0, 4 times.
*createmark surfaces 1 2
*createmark lines 2 10 12 14 15
*multi_trim_by_offset_edges input_surf_mark=1 input_line_mark=2 offset_distance=5.0 offset_count=4
