Surface (data set)

Create a surface data set.

Syntax

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

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

Description

model.result().dataset().create(<dtag>,"Surface") creates a surface data set with the name <dtag>.

The surface data set makes it possible to evaluate surfaces of a 3D model in 2D or 3D. For evaluation in 2D, different parameterizations of the 2D projection are available.

The following properties are available:

Property	Value	Default	Description
data	none | data set name	First compatible data set	The solution data set this feature refers to.
param	face | xy | yz | zx | yx | zy | xz | expr	face	The projection used when evaluating in 2D.
exprx	String		When param is expr: The x-axis expression when evaluating in 2D.
expry	String		When param is expr: The y-axis expression when evaluating in 2D.
