DrawingPartBuilder Class

class NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.DrawingPartBuilder

Bases: NXOpen.TaggedObject, NXOpen.GeometricUtilities.IComponentBuilder

Represents a NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.DrawingPartBuilder.

This class is used to define a drawing part in Ship Section Drawing command, in this case user can define the drawing part manually as he want. Originally, we use a NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.SectionDrawingBuilder class and a list of NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.SectionViewBuilder and the command will calculate the arrangement (like how many drawing parts/draw sheets need to create and which view in which sheet ) automatically. User can’t define which view in which sheet.

In this project we make user has ability to define the arrangement in a tree like Drawing Part1 |- Drawing Sheet1 |-View1 |-View2 |- Drawing Sheet2 |- View3 |- View4 Drawing Part2 | - Drawing Sheet1 |- View5 |- View6

So we add NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.DrawingPartBuilder and NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.DrawingSheetBuilder between them and make them has structure as below: NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.SectionDrawingBuilder NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.DrawingPartBuilder NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.DrawingSheetBuilder NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.SectionViewBuilder

To create a new instance of this class, use NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.SectionDrawingBuilder.CreateDrawingPartBuilder()
