def CheckCompoundOfBlocks	(		self,
			theCompound,
			theIsUseC1 = False,
			theAngTolerance = 1.e-12
	)

Check, if the compound of blocks is given.

To be considered as a compound of blocks, the given shape must satisfy the following conditions:

• Each element of the compound should be a Block (6 faces).
• Each face should be a quadrangle, i.e. it should have only 1 wire with 4 edges. If theIsUseC1 is set to True and there are more than 4 edges in the only wire of a face, this face is considered to be quadrangle if it has 4 bounds (1 or more edge) of C1 continuity.
• A connection between two Blocks should be an entire quadrangle face or an entire edge.
• The compound should be connexe.
• The glue between two quadrangle faces should be applied.

  Parameters

  theCompound	The compound to check.
  theIsUseC1	Flag to check if there are 4 bounds on a face taking into account C1 continuity.
  theAngTolerance	the angular tolerance to check if two neighbor edges are codirectional in the common vertex with this tolerance. This parameter is used only if theIsUseC1 is set to True.

  Returns

  TRUE, if the given shape is a compound of blocks. If theCompound is not valid, prints all discovered errors.

def GetNonBlocks	(		self,
			theShape,
			theIsUseC1 = False,
			theAngTolerance = 1.e-12,
			theName = None
	)

Retrieve all non blocks solids and faces from theShape.

Parameters

theShape	The shape to explore.
theIsUseC1	Flag to check if there are 4 bounds on a face taking into account C1 continuity.
theAngTolerance	the angular tolerance to check if two neighbor edges are codirectional in the common vertex with this tolerance. This parameter is used only if theIsUseC1 is set to True.
theName	Object name; when specified, this parameter is used for result publication in the study. Otherwise, if automatic publication is switched on, default value is used for result name.

Returns

A tuple of two GEOM_Objects. The first object is a group of all non block solids (= not 6 faces, or with 6 faces, but with the presence of non-quadrangular faces). The second object is a group of all non quadrangular faces (= faces with more then 1 wire or, if theIsUseC1 is set to True, faces with 1 wire with not 4 edges that do not form 4 bounds of C1 continuity).

def RemoveExtraEdges	(		self,
			theShape,
			doUnionFaces = False,
			theName = None
	)

Remove all seam and degenerated edges from theShape.

Unite faces and edges, sharing one surface. It means that this faces must have references to one C++ surface object (handle).

Parameters

theShape	The compound or single solid to remove irregular edges from.
doUnionFaces	If True, then unite faces. If False (the default value), do not unite faces.
theName	Object name; when specified, this parameter is used for result publication in the study. Otherwise, if automatic publication is switched on, default value is used for result name.

Returns

Improved shape.

def UnionFaces	(		self,
			theShape,
			theName = None
	)

Performs union faces of theShape Unite faces sharing one surface.

It means that these faces must have references to one C++ surface object (handle).

Parameters

theShape	The compound or single solid that contains faces to perform union.
theName	Object name; when specified, this parameter is used for result publication in the study. Otherwise, if automatic publication is switched on, default value is used for result name.

Returns

Improved shape.

def CheckAndImprove	(		self,
			theShape,
			theName = None
	)

Check, if the given shape is a blocks compound.

Fix all detected errors.

Note

Single block can be also fixed by this method.

Parameters

theShape	The compound to check and improve.
theName	Object name; when specified, this parameter is used for result publication in the study. Otherwise, if automatic publication is switched on, default value is used for result name.

Returns

Improved compound.
