VarRadEdgeFillet

Represents the edge fillet shape with a variable radius.
The resulting shape is made up of edges fillets controlled by couples of
radius/vertex.
add_edge_to_fillet(i_edge: Reference, i_radius: float) → None

o Sub AddEdgeToFillet(Reference iEdge,
double iRadius)

Adds a new edge to the variable radius edge fillet.

Parameters:

iEdge
The edge to be filleted
The following

Boundary object is supported: TriDimFeatEdge.
iRadius
The radius to impose along the edge. This radius is imposed at both end
points of the edge.

Example:
The following example adds the new edge edge to be filleted to the variable
radius edge fillet firstVarEdgeFillet:

call firstVarEdgeFillet.AddEdgeToFillet(edge, 5.)
Parameters:

  • i_edge (Reference) –

  • i_radius (float) –

Return type:

None

add_imposed_vertex(i_vertex: Reference, i_radius: float) → None

o Sub AddImposedVertex(Reference iVertex,
double iRadius)

Adds a new control couple. A control couple is made up of a vertex and a
radius.

Parameters:

iVertex
The vertex where to impose the radius
iRadius
The radius to impose at the given vertex

Example:
The following example adds a new control couple (vertex, radius) to the
variable radius edge fillet firstVarEdgeFillet set with the vertex vertex and a
radius of 50.

call firstVarEdgeFillet.AddImposedVertex(vertex, 50.)
Parameters:

  • i_vertex (Reference) –

  • i_radius (float) –

Return type:

None

o Property BitangencyType() As CatFilletBitangencyType

Returns or set the fillet bitangency type.

Parameters:

iType
The type used to perform the fillet : catSphereBitangencyType or catCircleBitangencyType
Returns:

enum cat_fillet_bitangency_type

Return type:

int

property edges_to_fillet: References

Note

CAA V5 Visual Basic Help (2020-07-06 14:02:20.222384)
o Property EdgesToFillet() As References (Read Only)

Returns the collection of edges to be filleted.

Example:
The following example returns in edges the edges to fillet of variable
radius edge filletfirstVarEdgeFillet:

Set edges = firstVarEdgeFillet.EdgesToFillet
Return type:

References

property fillet_spine: Reference

Note

CAA V5 Visual Basic Help (2020-07-06 14:02:20.222384)
o Property FilletSpine() As Reference

Returns or set the spine for circle bitangency fillet.

Parameters:

iSpin
The spine to be used for a circle bitangency
fillet
Return type:

Reference

property fillet_variation: int

Note

CAA V5 Visual Basic Help (2020-07-06 14:02:20.222384)
o Property FilletVariation() As CatFilletVariation

Returns or sets the edge fillet radius variation mode.

Example:
The following example returns in mode the radius variation mode of the
variable radius edge filletfirstVarEdgeFillet, and then sets it to
CATLinearFilletVariation so that the radius variation is linear between two
control vertices:

mode = firstVarEdgeFillet.FilletVariation
firstVarEdgeFillet.FilletVariation = CATLinearFilletVariation
Returns:

enum cat_fillet_variation

Return type:

int

o Func ImposedVertexRadius(Reference iImposedVertex) As
Length

Returns the fillet radius on an imposed vertex.

Parameters:

variable radius edge fillet firstVarEdgeFillet at the vertex
vertex:

Set radius = firstVarEdgeFillet.ImposedVertexRadius(vertex)
Parameters:

i_imposed_vertex (Reference) –

Return type:
