The LeafFromModelNodeLabels object can be used whenever a Leaf object is expected as an argument. Leaf objects are used to specify the items in a display group. Leaf objects are constructed as temporary objects, which are then used as arguments to DisplayGroup commands.
The LeafFromModelNodeLabels object is derived from the Leaf object.
import displayGroupOdbToolset
This method creates a Leaf object from a sequence of node labels spanning several part instances.
LeafFromModelNodeLabels
Required argument
A sequence of Strings specifying expressions that denote node labels per part instance in the model. Each part instance node expression is a sequence of a String specifying the part instance name and a sequence of node expressions; for example, (('partInstance1',(1,'7','3:15;3'),), ('partInstance2','8'),)). The node expressions can be any of the following:
An Int specifying a single node label; for example, 1.
A String specifying a single node label; for example, '7'.
A String specifying a sequence of node labels; for example, '3:5' and '3:15:3'.
Optional arguments
Return value
A LeafFromModelNodeLabels object.
Exceptions
The LeafFromModelNodeLabels object has members with the same names and descriptions as the arguments to the LeafFromModelNodeLabels method.
In addition, the LeafFromModelNodeLabels object has the following member:
A SymbolicConstant specifying the leaf type. Possible values are EMPTY, DEFAULT_MODEL, ALL_ELEMENTS, ALL_NODES, and ALL_SURFACES.
