component

elevsurf.component(p0: float, p1: float, p2: float) → int

Elevated surfaces are always created with a scalar. If creation variable is a vector this command specifies how the scalar will be created.

If all the scale factors are set to 0.0, the magnitude of the vector will be used (this is the default).

Args:

p0:

‘x_scal ‘ scale factor to apply to the x, y, z components of the vector

p1:

‘y_scal’ scale factor to apply to the x, y, z components of the vector

p2:

‘z_scal’ scale factor to apply to the x, y, z components of the vector

Examples:

#
# Select existing elevated surface part
#
ensight.part.select_begin(3)
ensight.part.modify_begin()
ensight.elevsurf.variable("N_velocity")
#
# Use x-component of the vector
#
ensight.elevsurf.component(1.0000e+00,0.0000e+00,0.0000e+00)
ensight.elevsurf.scale_factor(9.9660e-01)
ensight.part.modify_end()

Returns:

zero on success, non-zero on error
