DrawBeadSegmentBuilder Class

class NXOpen.Die.DrawBeadSegmentBuilder

Bases: NXOpen.TaggedObject, NXOpen.GeometricUtilities.IComponentBuilder

Segment builder for Die Engineering draw bead.

The segment is defined along the centerline by either a single point (and then the next segment) or 2 end points along the segment. To create a new instance of this class, use NXOpen.Die.DrawBeadBuilder.CreateDrawBeadSegment()

New in version NX7.5.0.

Method Detail

Validate

DrawBeadSegmentBuilder.Validate

Validate whether the inputs to the component are sufficient for commit to be called.

If the component is not in a state to commit then an exception is thrown. For example, if the component requires you to set some property, this method will throw an exception if you haven’t set it. This method throws a not-yet-implemented NXException for some components.

Signature Validate()

Returns:Was self validation successful Return type:bool
