HM_ExtAPI::CreateSurfaceExtruded()
Creates extruded surface object.
Syntax
bool CreateSurfaceExtruded(
HM_EntityGeometrySurface& new_surf,
const HM_EntityGeometryCurve& generator_curve,
const HM_Vector& dir
);Type
HyperMesh Ext API
Description
The function creates the surface object of the type HM_ExtAPI::EXTRUDED_SURFACE().
Extruded surface is defined by parametric equation
S(U, V) = C(U) + V D,
where C(U) is parametric curve and D is extrusion vector.
| Parameters used by CreateSurfaceExtruded | Extruded surface parameters |
|---|---|
| generator_curve | C(U) |
| dir | D |
If the function succeeds, the return value is true. If the function fails, the return value is false. To get extended value information, call HM_ExtAPI::GetLastErrorCode().
Requires including hm_extapi.h.
Inputs
- new_surf
- [out] - Handle to new surface object.
- generator_curve
- [in] - Handle to curve object that represents the curve used to generate extruded surface. The handle that was returned by previous calls to API functions must be used.
- dir
- [in] - Extrusion vector. The length of the vector defines parameterization scaling of extruded surface in V parameter. The direction of the vector defines extrusion direction.
Errors
None.
