Make Ellipse Fit Profile    

Creates fit profile for ellipse.

 

Input Arguments

 

0

String

Fit Profile Name

Name of fit profile.

1

Measured Side for Radial Offset

Measured Side for Radial Offset

The side of the ellipse that is to be measured radially.

2

Double

Override radial Offset (-1.0 use

current)

The amount to use if overriding radial offset.

3

Measured Side for Planar Offset

Measured Side for Planar Offset

The side of the ellipse that is to be measured planar.

4

Double

Override Planar Offset (-1.0 use

current)

The amount to use if overriding planar offset.

5

Normal Direction

Planar Offset Direction

The planar probing direction.

6

Boolean

Reverse Normal Vector after fit?

Reverse the normal vector.

7

Boolean

Make Cardinal Points?

Creates cardinal points from ellipse.

8

Boolean

Cardinal Pt. 1: Center?

Create a cardinal point at the center of the ellipse.

9

Boolean

Cardinal Pt. 2: Point on Normal?

Create a point on normal.

10

Boolean

Cardinal Pt. 3: Centerline Pt. 1?

Create a cardinal point along ellipse centerline.

11

Boolean

Cardinal Pt. 4: Centerline Pt. 2?

Create a cardinal point along ellipse centerline.

 

Return Arguments

None.

 

Returned Status

 

SUCCESS

The ellipse fit profile was created successfully.

FAILURE

The fit profile could not be created.

 

Remarks

Leave the fit profile name blank in order to use the default fit profile for the specified geometry type. Use an offset of

-1.0 to use the offset defined in the object properties or a value of 0.0 to indicate that no offset should apply.
