Mirror2D, Mirror3D

Create 2D and 3D mirror data sets.

Syntax

model.result().dataset().create(<dtag>,"Mirror2D");

model.result().dataset().create(<dtag>,"Mirror3D");

model.result().dataset(<dtag>).set(property, <value>);

Description

model.result().dataset().create(<dtag>,"Mirror2D") creates a 2D mirror data set feature named <dtag>.

model.result().dataset().create(<dtag>,"Mirror3D") creates a 3D mirror data set feature named <dtag>.

This data set takes data from another data set and adds a mirror copy with respect to an axis or plane of reflection (for 2D and 3D, respectively).

The following properties are available for Mirror 2D and Mirror 3D:

Table 7-52: Valid Property/Value Pairs for Mirror Data Sets

Name	Value	Default	Description
data	none | data set name	First compatible data set	The data set this feature refers to
genpoints	double matrix	{{0, 0, 0}, {1,0,0}}	Active when method equals twopoint, this property contains the coordinates of the two points in the two rows of the matrix.
hasvar	Boolean	false	If true, space and axis indicator variables are defined
method	twopoint | pointdir	twopoint	Decides if the line should be specified by two points or through one point and a direction
pddir	String array	{"0","1"}	Active when method equals pointdir, this property contains the direction.
pdpoint	String array	{"0","0"}	Active when method equals pointdir, this property contains the coordinates of the point.
sidevar	String		If hasvar is true: The name of the positive side variable, which is 1 on the side where the original data resides and 0 on the other side.
spacevars	String array	Depends on the feature’s tag	If hasvar is true: The name of space variables, which evaluate to the coordinates after the transformation performed by the mirror data set.

The following properties are available for Mirror 3D:

Table 7-53: Valid Property/Value Pairs

Name	Value	Default	Description
data	none | data set name	First compatible data set	The data set this feature refers to
genmethod	threepoint | pointnormal	threepoint	Active when planetype equals general, this property indicates whether the plane should be specified by three points or through one point and a normal.
genpoints	double matrix	{{0, 0, 0}, {1,0,0},{0,1,0}}	Active when method equals threepoint, this property contains the coordinates of the three points in the rows of the matrix.
genpnpoint	String array of length three	Zero string vector	Active when genmethod equals pointnormal, this property contains the coordinates of the point.
genpnvec	String array of length three	Zero string vector	Active when genmethod equals pointnormal, this property contains the normal vector.
hasvar	Boolean	false	If true, space and axis indicator variables are defined
planetype	quick | general	yz	Specify plane type
quickplane	xy | yz | zx	yz	Specify quick plane type. Active when planetype is quick.
quickx	String	"0"	x-coordinate if planetype is yz
quicky	String	"0"	y-coordinate if planetype is zx
quickz	String	"0"	z-coordinate if planetype is xy
sidevar	String		If hasvar is true: The name of the positive side variable, which is 1 on the side where the original data resides and 0 on the other side.
spacevars	String array	Depends on the feature’s tag	If hasvar is true: The names of space variables, which evaluate to the coordinates after the transformation performed by the mirror data set.
