Methods

Property Detail

AssemblyCrossHatching

SectionViewPreferences.AssemblyCrossHatching

Returns or sets the status of assembly cross hatching.

Controls the crosshatching angle of adjacent solids in an assembly section view. Works when Preferences.SectionViewPreferences.CrossHatch`() is True.

-------------------------------------

Getter Method

Signature AssemblyCrossHatching

Returns: Return type:bool

New in version NX5.0.0.

License requirements: None.

-------------------------------------

Setter Method

Signature AssemblyCrossHatching

Parameters:assemblyCrossHatching (bool) –

New in version NX5.0.0.

License requirements: drafting (“DRAFTING”)

Background

SectionViewPreferences.Background

Returns or sets the status of background.

Suppress or display the background curves for a section view. If True, not only the curves and crosshatching generated by cutting the solid are displayed, but the curves behind the cutting plane are displayed as well. If False, only the curves and crosshatching generated by cutting the solid are displayed in the view.

CrossHatch

SectionViewPreferences.CrossHatch

Returns or sets the status of cross hatch.

Allows to control whether or not crosshatching is generated in a given section view. If True, crosshatching is displayed for a section view on the drawing, else crosshatching is not generated for a section view on the drawing, and a performance increase is gained.
