HM_ExtAPI::OffsetFaces()
Offsets faces in the model in the direction of their normal.
Syntax
bool OffsetFaces(
int num_faces,
const HM_EntityGeomFace* input_faces,
const double* offset_dists,
HM_OffsetParamStruct& offset_params
);
Type
HyperMesh Ext API Function
Description
If the function succeeds, the return value is true. If the function fails, the return value is false. To get extended value information, call HM_ExtAPI::GetLastErrorCode().
Requires including hm_extapi.h.
Inputs
- num_faces
- [in] - Number of faces to offset.
- input_faces
- [in] - Array of faces to offset. The number of entries in the array must be num_faces.
- offset_dists
- [in] - If not NULL then points to the array of offset distances for each face. The number of entries in the array in this case must be num_faces. If the value in the array is positive then corresponding face is offset in the direction defined by its normal. If the value is negative then corresponding face is offset in the direction opposite to the direction defined by its normal.
- offset_params
- [in/out] - Offset parameters. See HM_OffsetParamStruct for details.
Errors
None.
