ConnectPathBuilder Class — NXOpen Python API Reference 12.0.0 documentation

# ConnectPathBuilder Class

class `NXOpen.Routing.``ConnectPathBuilder`

  Bases: `NXOpen.Builder`

  Represents a `NXOpen.Routing.ConnectPathBuilder`.

  Routing.ConnectPathBuilderis used to control the connecting of Routing.ControlPoints within the distance tolerance specified. This eliminates duplicate Routing.ControlPoints such that only one Routing.ControlPoint remains. The Routing.Segments that were defined by the duplicate Routing.ControlPoints are now defined by the remaining Routing.ControlPoint. Routing.ConnectPath is the reverse operation to Routing.DiscontinuityCorner. To create a new instance of this class, use `NXOpen.Routing.RouteManager.CreateConnectPathBuilder()`
