SMBoundaryConditionBuilder Class

class NXOpen.Features.SheetMetal.SMBoundaryConditionBuilder

Bases: NXOpen.TaggedObject, NXOpen.GeometricUtilities.IComponentBuilder

Represents a Boundary condition object for Metaform.

A Metaform feature can have one or more boundary conditions and each condition determines how the mapped geometry will be locked. To create a new instance of this class, use NXOpen.Features.SheetMetal.MetaformBuilder.CreateSMBoundaryCondition()

New in version NX7.5.0.

Property Detail

ConstraintName

SMBoundaryConditionBuilder.ConstraintName

Returns or sets the constraint name.

If a constraint is added interactively, an automatic name will be generated for the users which can be edited. Each of the constraint name must be unique.

Method Detail

Validate

SMBoundaryConditionBuilder.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
