Methods

o AddFilletRadius

public virtual AddFilletRadius(		`iObject_input`,
		`iRadius`,
	const	`iParm_input`	`= NULL_var`)

Adds new radius/vertex pairs.
Precondition: only for edge fillets with a variable radius. If you want to add an edge, use AddObject method before.

Parameters:

iObject: Specifies the edge to be filleted or the vertex where to impose the radius.
The edge should be a Feature Redge (CATIMfRedge) used in AddObject method.
The vertex should be a point, a plane or a feature CATIMfPointOnEdge. The feature PointOnEdge should be created using CATIMmiBRepFactory and should use a Feature Redge belonging to the fillet.
iRadius: In case of edges, the radius to impose along the edge. This radius is imposed at both end points of the edge.
In case of vertices, the radius to impose at the given vertex

o AddKeepEdge

public virtual AddKeepEdge( const iKeepEdgeList_input)

Adds edges that must not be modified during the fillet operation.
Precondition: only for edge fillets with constant radius.

Parameters:

iKeepEdgeList: Specifies the list of sharp edges that must not be modified.
The CATISpecObject_var should be a Redge (CATIMfRedge) feature created with CATIMmiBRepFactory. This edge should not be already used in the fillet. This edge should belong to the same mechanical body.

o AddObject

public virtual AddObject( const iObjectList_input)

Adds elements to be filleted.
Postcondition: It just adds the elements to the fillet. So for variable radius edge fillet, you have to use AddFilletRadius method on the edge to add vertices for computing variable fillet.

Parameters:

iObjectList: Specifies the list of sharp edges or faces to be filleted.
The CATISpecObject_var should be a Redge (CATIMfRedge) or Rsur (CATIMfRsur) feature created with CATIMmiBRepFactory. This edge or face should not be already used in the fillet. This edge or face should belong to the same mechanical body.

o GetFilletType

public virtual GetFilletType(

)

Returns the fillet type. The fillet type specifies the ways the fillet is defined.
The fillet type can be :
Constant: the constant edge fillet is built with a constant radius, .
Variable: the variable edge fillet is defined by radius/vertex pairs
Legal values: the CATPrtFilletType type can be set to CONSTANT or VARIABLE.

o GetObject

public virtual GetObject(

)

Returns the list of filleted edges or faces. The CATISpecObject_var is a Redge (CATIMfRedge) or Rsur (CATIMfRsur) feature.

o GetPropagation

public virtual GetPropagation(

)

Returns the propagation mode of the elements to be filleted. The propagation mode specifies the edges taken into account when filleting.
The propagation can be performed in two ways:
Tangency:CATIA continues filleting beyond the selected edge until it encounters an edge that is non continuous in tangency.
Minimal: the propagation is done up to the first natural relimitation by the geometry.
Legal values: the CATPrtFilletPropagation propagation mode can be set to TANGENCY or MINIMAL.

o GetRadius

public virtual GetRadius(

)

Returns the edge fillet constant radius.
Precondition: only for edge fillets with a constant radius.
Legal values: The radius value must be greater than 0 but not equal to 0.

o GetRadiusOnVertex

public virtual GetRadiusOnVertex( iVertex_input)

Returns the fillet radius on an imposed vertex of a variable edge fillet.
Precondition: only for edge fillets with a variable radius. A radius/vertex pair is made up of a vertex associated with a radius.

Parameters:

iVertex: Specifies the vertex which the radius to be modified. The vertex should be a point, a plane (intersecting edges) or a CATIMfPointOnEdge feature belonging to the fillet.
Legal values: The radius value must be greater than or equal to 0.

o GetVariation

public virtual GetVariation(

)

Returns the edge fillet radius variation mode.
Precondition: only for edge fillets with a variable radius. The variation mode specifies the way the fillet shape changes from one radius to another.
The variation can be performed in two ways:
Cubic: the fillet changes smoothly from one radius to another.
Linear: the fillet changes straight from one radius to another.;
Legal values: the CATPrtFilletVariation variation mode can be set to CUBIC or LINEAR.

o GetVertex

public virtual GetVertex(

Returns the list of defined vertices. The vertex is a point, a plane (intersecting edges) or a CATIMfPointOnEdge feature belonging to the fillet.

o ModifyPropagation

public virtual ModifyPropagation( iPropagation)

Sets the propagation mode of the elements to be filleted.

Parameters:

iPropagation: The propagation mode specifies the edges taken into account when filleting.
The propagation can be performed in two ways:
Tangency:CATIA continues filleting beyond the selected edge until it encounters an edge that is non continuous in tangency.
Minimal: the propagation is done up to the first natural relimitation by the geometry.
Legal values: the CATPrtFilletPropagation propagation mode can be set to TANGENCY or MINIMAL.

o ModifyRadius

public virtual ModifyRadius( iRadius)

Sets the edge fillet constant radius.
Precondition: only for edge fillets with a constant radius.

Parameters:

iRadius: Specifies the constant radius value.

o ModifyRadiusOnVertex

public virtual ModifyRadiusOnVertex(		`iVertex_input`,

o ModifyVariation

public virtual ModifyVariation( iVariation)

Sets the edge fillet radius variation mode.
Precondition: only for edge fillets with a variable radius.

Parameters:

iVariation: The variation mode specifies the way the fillet shape changes from one radius to another.
The variation can be performed in two ways:
Cubic: the fillet changes smoothly from one radius to another.
Linear: the fillet changes straight from one radius to another.;
Legal values: the CATPrtFilletVariation variation mode can be set to CUBIC or LINEAR.

o RemoveFilletRadius

public virtual RemoveFilletRadius( iVertex_input)

Removes a radius/vertex pair from those to be defined.
