AdjacentSelection

Create a selection of entities or objects that are adjacent to given selections.

Syntax

model.geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"AdjacentSelection");

model.geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).set(property,<value>);

model.geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).getType(property);

Description

AdjacentSelection creates a selection of all entities of dimension outputdim that are adjacent to at least one entity in the input selections. If the output selection has lower dimension than the input selections, you can use the exterior and interior properties to exclude or include output entities that are exterior/interior to the union of the input selections.

The following properties are available:

Property	Value	Default	Description
entitydim	0 | 1 | 2 | 3	space dimension	Dimension of input entities
exterior	on|off	on	Include output entities that are exterior to the union of the input selections
input	String[]	{}	Tags of input selections
interior	on|off	off	Include output entities that are interior to the union of the input selections
outputdim	0 | 1 | 2 | 3	space dimension - 1	Dimension of entities to select
selkeep	on | off	on	Keep the selection within the geometry sequence.
selshow	on | off	on	Show selection in physics, materials, and so on; in part instances; or in 3D from a plane geometry.
contributeto	String	none	Tag of cumulative selection to contribute to.

See Selections of Geometric Entities for general information about selections.

Example

Code for use with Java

Model model = ModelUtil.create("Model");

GeomSequence g = model.geom().create("geom1", 3);

g.create("sph1", "Sphere");

g.run("sph1");

g.create("sel1", "ExplicitSelection");

g.feature("sel1").selection("selection").init(0);

g.feature("sel1").selection("selection").set("sph1", new int[]{4});

g.create("adjsel1", "AdjacentSelection");

g.feature("adjsel1").set("entitydim", 0);

g.feature("adjsel1").set("input", new String[]{"sel1"});

g.run("adjsel1");

g.create("del1", "Delete");

g.feature("del1").selection("input").named("adjsel1");

g.run("del1");

Code for use with MATLAB

model = ModelUtil.create('Model');

g = model.geom.create('geom1', 3);

g.create('sph1', 'Sphere');

g.run('sph1');

g.create('sel1', 'ExplicitSelection');

g.feature('sel1').selection('selection').init(0);

g.feature('sel1').selection('selection').set('sph1', 4);

g.create('adjsel1', 'AdjacentSelection');

g.feature('adjsel1').set('entitydim', 0);

g.feature('adjsel1').set('input', 'sel1');

g.run('adjsel1');

g.create('del1', 'Delete');

g.feature('del1').selection('input').named('adjsel1');

g.run('del1');
