Member Function Documentation

◆ bounding_box()

std::array< double, 6 > bounding_box ( )

Get the bounding box of the Entity .

std::array<double,6> b_box = entity->bounding_box();
b_box = entity.bounding_box()
Returns
The bounding box as a vector (or list) where the indices correspond to the values as follows:
0 - minimum x value
1 - minimum y value
2 - minimum z value
3 - maximum x value
4 - maximum y value
5 - maximum z value

◆ center_point()

std::array< double, 3 > center_point ( )

Get the center point of the Entity .

std::array<double,3> center = entity->center_point();
center = entity.center_point()
Returns
The center point as a vector (or list) where the indices correspond to the values as follows:
0 - x value
1 - y value
2 - z value

◆ destroy_cubit_entity()

void destroy_cubit_entity ( )

◆ entity_ptr()

CubitEntity * entity_ptr ( )

◆ id()

int id ( )

Get the id of the Entity .

intid = entity->id();
id = entity.id()
Returns
The id of the Entity

◆ is_transparent() [1/2]

int is_transparent ( )

Get the tranparency state of the Entity .

int trans = entity->is_transparent();
trans = entity.is_transparent()
Returns
The current transparency state of the Entity (1 if transparent, 0 if not)

◆ is_transparent() [2/2]

void is_transparent ( int  transparency_flag )

Set the tranparency state of the Entity .

entity->is_transparent(1);
entity.is_transparent(1)
Parameters
[in] transparency_flag The flag that sets whether the Entity is transparent (1) or not (0)

◆ is_visible() [1/2]

int is_visible ( )

Get the visibility state of the Entity .

int vis = entity->is_visible();
vis = entity.is_visible()
Returns
The current visiblity state of the Entity (1 if visible, 0 if not)

◆ is_visible() [2/2]

void is_visible ( bool  visibility_flag )

Set the visibility state of the Entity .

entity->is_visible(1);
entity.is_visible(1)
Parameters
[in] visibility_flag The flag that sets whether the Entity is visible (1) or not (0)

◆ operator=()

Entity & operator= ( const Entity &  rhs )

◆ set_transparent()

void set_transparent ( int  transparency_flag )

Set the tranparency state of the Entity .

entity->set_transparent(1);
entity.set_transparent(1)
Parameters
[in] transparency_flag The flag that sets whether the Entity is transparent (1) or not (0)

◆ set_visible()

void set_visible ( bool  visibility_flag )

Set the visibility state of the Entity .

entity->set_visible(1);
entity.set_visible(1)
Parameters
[in] visibility_flag The flag that sets whether the Entity is visible (1) or not (0)
