create_delta

clip.create_delta(*args, **kwargs) → Any

Specify the delta offset when multiple clip instances will be created.

For XYZ clips, this is a float value in the direction chosen for the XYZ clip. For Plane clips, this is a float value in the plane z direction. For IJK clips, this is should be a whole number representing the number of I, J, or K planes.

Requires the use of the clip: number_to_create <instances> command in conjunction with this command.

Args:

p0:

‘delta’ the delta value to apply to each instance of multiple clips.

Examples:

#
# Select a parent part
#
ensight.part.select_begin(2)
ensight.clip.begin()
#
# Create a clip at y=1.5 and 4 additional instances at .5 delta
#
ensight.clip.value(1.5)
ensight.clip.create_delta(0.5)
ensight.clip.number_to_create(5)
ensight.clip.domain("intersect")
ensight.clip.tool("xyz")
ensight.clip.mesh_plane("Y")
ensight.clip.end()
ensight.clip.create()

Returns:

zero on success, non-zero on error
