ComponentData Class — NXOpen Python API Reference 12.0.0 documentation

# ComponentData Class

class `NXOpen.Annotations.``ComponentData`

  Bases: `NXOpen.TransientObject`

  A ComponentData object can be used to query the components of an annotation.

  These components include line components, arrow components, arc components, and text components. These components can then be queried for type specific information about the object. .. versionadded:: NX6.0.2

# Methods

Method | Description
--- | ---
Dispose | Frees the object from memory.
GetArcComponents | Queries the arc components, (`NXOpen.Annotations.ArcComponent`), in an annotation.
GetArrowComponents | Queries the arrow components, (`NXOpen.Annotations.ArrowComponent`), in an annotation.
GetEntities | Returns the entities that display the annotation.
GetEntitiesAutodelete | Returns the entities that display the annotation.
GetLineComponents | Queries the line components, (`NXOpen.Annotations.LineComponent`), in an annotation.
GetTextComponents | Queries the text components, (`NXOpen.Annotations.ArcComponent`), in an annotation.

# Method Detail

## GetArcComponents

`ComponentData.``GetArcComponents`

  Queries the arc components, (`NXOpen.Annotations.ArcComponent`), in an annotation.

  Each arc component can be queried for arc specific information.

  Signature `GetArcComponents()`

  Returns: | All of the arc components that exist in the annotation
  Return type: | list of `NXOpen.Annotations.ArcComponent`

  New in version NX6.0.2.

  License requirements: None.

## GetArrowComponents

`ComponentData.``GetArrowComponents`

  Queries the arrow components, (`NXOpen.Annotations.ArrowComponent`), in an annotation.

  Each arrow component can be queried for arrow specific information.

  Signature `GetArrowComponents()`

  Returns: | All of the arrow components that exist in the annotation
  Return type: | list of `NXOpen.Annotations.ArrowComponent`

  New in version NX6.0.2.

  License requirements: None.

## GetEntities

`ComponentData.``GetEntities`

  Returns the entities that display the annotation.

  Each entity can be queried to get the line, arc and text information. Note that entities could be line, arc, spline and annotation objects.

  Signature `GetEntities()`

  Returns: | List of entities that display the annotation.

  It is the caller’s responsibility to delete these objects. :rtype: list of `NXOpen.DisplayableObject`

  New in version NX6.0.2.

  License requirements: None.

## GetEntitiesAutodelete

`ComponentData.``GetEntitiesAutodelete`

  Returns the entities that display the annotation.

  These entites will be deleted when this object is deleted. Each entity can be queried to get the line, arc and text information. Note that entities could be line, arc, spline and annotation objects.

  Signature `GetEntitiesAutodelete()`

  Returns: | List of entities that display the annotation.

  These entities will be deleted when the ComponentData object is deleted. :rtype: list of `NXOpen.DisplayableObject`

  New in version NX11.0.0.

  License requirements: None.

## GetLineComponents

`ComponentData.``GetLineComponents`

  Queries the line components, (`NXOpen.Annotations.LineComponent`), in an annotation.

  Each line component can be queried for line specific information.

  Signature `GetLineComponents()`

  Returns: | All of the lines components that exist in the annotation
  Return type: | list of `NXOpen.Annotations.LineComponent`

  New in version NX6.0.2.

  License requirements: None.

## GetTextComponents

`ComponentData.``GetTextComponents`

  Queries the text components, (`NXOpen.Annotations.ArcComponent`), in an annotation.

  Each text component can be queried for text specific information.

  Signature `GetTextComponents()`

  Returns: | All of the text components that exist in the annotation
  Return type: | list of `NXOpen.Annotations.TextComponent`

  New in version NX6.0.2.
