hm_wadlinesgetleggridline

Returns a series of three doubles denoting the points for the line calculated by the previous call to hm_wadlinesgetgridpointsleg.

Syntax

hm_wadlinesgetleggridline

Type

HyperMesh Tcl Query Command

Description

Returns a series of three doubles denoting the points for the line calculated by the previous call to hm_wadlinesgetgridpointsleg. This API must be called after a call to hm_wadlinesgetgridpointsleg. The line that is returned is based on the arguments passed in to hm_wadlinesgetgridpointsleg:

height=0, version=7.0: Upper Bumper Reference Line

height=0, version=8.0: Internal Bumper Reference Line

height=1, version=7.0: Front Reference Line

height=1, version=8.0: WAD Line

These lines may have extra points added to them due to the requirements of the grid point marking standards compared to lines extracted using the hm_wadlinesgetreferenceline API. The extra points will ensure that any type of line (linear or smooth) will pass through all of the grid points. Thus, if you are drawing the markup lines for the grid points, use this API instead of the reference line API to get the lines.

Note than any line stored after one call to the hm_wadlinesgetgridpointsleg API is overwritten by subsequent calls to the hm_wadlinesgetgridpointsleg API.

if { [ catch {command_name...} ] } {
   # Handle error
}
