Projection Creation

Table of Contents

• Scope of accepted geometries
• API overview

The projection algorithm provides a way to create a model projection and obtain information about it.

Scope of accepted geometries

The projection tool (Projector_PolyProjector) works with ModelData.Part , creating projections from ModelData.Shape geometries:

• ModelData.Solid
• ModelData.Shell
• ModelData.Face

API overview

Projector_PolyProjector is the class that creates projection of a given ModelData.Part . It returns Projector_PolyData that contains information about projection area. See Projector Example.

ModelData.Part aPart = ...;
Projector_PolyProjector aProjector = new Projector_PolyProjector();
Projector_PolyData aData = aProjector.Perform(aPart, new Geom.Direction.YDir());
