Detailed Description

Represents a Dynamic Section Builder used for creating sections.


The dynamic sectioning is performed on a displayable part that is displayed in the modeling work view.It is possible to specify the view after creating the builder. However, the specified view must be modeling work view. This operation is meant to be performed in an interactive mode with visual feedback.


Builder Creation:


The dynamic section builder can be used to create new dynamic section objects OR to edit an existing section object.

See Display::DynamicSectionCollection::CreateSectionBuilder

When a view is specified during the builder creation, the dynamic section object will be activated in the view. When the dynamic section object is activated in the view, view clipping and capping is enabled. However, it is not necessary to specify the view.


There are three different types of sections that are currently being supported.




User can switch between these types at any time.


Assembly and Modeling Operations




All the APIs accept geometric data such as plane origin, plane normal in the absolute coordinate system.


Saving changes


Builder::Commit method will activate the section object in the modeling view. It returns the dynamic section object tag.


Section Plane Families:


An important issue with dynamic sectioning is the ability to easily define a group of related cross-section planes. A group of related cross-section planes will be known as a Plane Family. An important idea in understanding a plane family is the concept of a defining or a Base Plane. The base plane of the plane family is the starting point (i.e. plane) for the plane family. All planes in the family are related by an offset to the base plane. There are two types of plane families:




Linear Plane Family


A linear plane family is defined by an infinite group of parallel planes. All of the planes in a linear family are parallel to its base plane (i.e. along the base plane normal at some linear offset value). This is illustrated below with a base plane and three parallel planes to it that are members of the plane family.


Base Plane

                |   |   |   | 
                |   |   |   | 
                |   |   |   | ==\> Nomal to all planes.
                |   |   |   | 
                |   |   |   | 


Axi-Symmetric Plane Family


An axi-symmetric plane family is defined by rotating the base plane about one of the three primary axes. There are an infinite number of planes in an axi-symmetric plane family similar to a linear plane family. This is illustrated below with a base plane and three planes rotated about the z-axis.

                        \   |   /
                         \  |  / 
                          \ | /   
                           \|/____  Base Plane


Switching between plane families


Methods defining a new linear family




Following methods define a new axi-symmetric family




Transition between plane families


When a method defining a new linear family is invoked, then if



The same thing happens when a method defining a new axi-symmetric plane is invoked.


Examples:


1. Linear Family


Goal: User wants to create a series of sections along X axis.


API sequence:

                planeX  - Create a plane with base plane at X = 0 
                              See Display.DynamicSectionBuilder.PlaneX
                SetOffset( 50 ) - Plane at X = 50 
                SetOffset( 100 ) - Plane at X = 100 
                SetOffset( 0 ) - Plane at X = 0 


2. Axi-symmetric Family


Goal: User wants to create a series of sections by planes rotated around X axis of the section plane.


API sequence:

                SetRotation( X, 45 ) - The current plane becomes base plane. Then 
                                       the plane rotated around X axis by 45 
                                       degrees. 
                SetRotation( X, 90 ) - Plane rotated around X axis by 90 degrees. 
                SetRotation( X, 90 ) - Plane rotated around X axis by 0 degrees. 
                                       Back to original position.

Member Function Documentation

Cycle through planes that are 90 degrees aligned to the current section plane.

For example, for a XY plane with normal along positive Z axis, invoking this method will cycle through the planes in the following order.

                        - YZ plane with normal along X axis
                        - XZ plane with normal along Y axis
                        - XY plane with normal along Z axis

The section offset and rotation matrix are updated.
