Part API
The Part module is the direct connection between FreeCAD and the OpenCasCade kernel. It provides mainly TopoShapes which is the main object type used by OpenCascade. The Part module also contains a variety of convenience functions to create and manipulate topoShapes. Example:
import Part mycube = Part.makeBox(2,2,2) Part.show(mycube)
Description: Helper method to convert a pythonocc shape to an internal shape
Returns: A Part.Shape
Description: Helper method to sort an unsorted list of edges so that afterwards two adjacent edges share a common vertex
Returns: a list of edges
Description: Helper method to convert an internal shape to pythonocc shape
Returns: an OCC.Shape
Description: Helper method to sort and cluster a variety of edges
Returns:
Description: Insert the file (path given as first argument) into the given document (second argument).
Returns:
Description: Makes a box located at pnt with the dimensions (length,width,height). By default pnt is Vector(0,0,0) and dir is Vector(0,0,1)
Returns: the created shape
Description: Makes a circle with a given radius. By default pnt is Vector(0,0,0), dir is Vector(0,0,1), angle1 is 0 and angle2 is 360
Returns: the created shape
Description: Creates a compound out of a list of shapes.
Returns: the created shape
Description: Makes a cone with given radii and height. By default pnt is Vector(0,0,0), dir is Vector(0,0,1) and angle is 360
Returns: the created shape
Description: Makes a cylinder with a given radius and height. By default pnt is Vector(0,0,0),dir is Vector(0,0,1) and angle is 360
Returns: the created shape
Description: Makes a helix with a given pitch, height and radius. By default a cylindrical surface is used to create the helix. If the fourth parameter is set a conical surface is used instead
Returns: the created shape
Description: Makes a plane. By default pnt is Vector(0,0,0) and dir is Vector(0,0,1)
Returns: the created shape
Description: Makes a revolved shape by rotating the curve or a portion of it around an axis given by (pnt,dir). By default vmin/vmax are set to bounds of the curve,angle is 360,pnt is Vector(0,0,0) and dir is Vector(0,0,1)
Returns: the created shape
Description: Creates a ruled surface out of two edges or wires. If wires are used then these must have the same number of edges.
Returns: the created shape
Description: Creates a solid out of the shells inside a shape.
Returns: the created shape
Description: Makes a sphere with a given radius. By default pnt is Vector(0,0,0), dir is Vector(0,0,1), angle1 is 0, angle2 is 90 and angle3 is 360
Returns: the created shape
Description: Makes a torus with a given radii and angles. By default pnt is Vector(0,0,0),dir is Vector(0,0,1),angle1 is 0,angle1 is 360 and angle is 360
Returns: the created shape
Description: Adds the shape to the active document or create one if no document exists.
Returns:
