Algorithm (Workflow)
This function, SGdimensioningFront, is designed to create a side view dimensioning figure from a given solid geometry (SG). It is part of the SG-Library and was introduced in SolidGeometry version 4.9.
Input Parameters
- SG: This is the solid geometry input, which is the primary data structure the function operates on.
- pnt: This represents the crossing point. If not provided, it defaults to the mean of the vertices in the solid geometry.
- acc: This is the accuracy parameter, with a default value of 0.1. It determines the precision of the dimensioning process.
Output
- CPL: This is the output, representing the CPL of the side-view dimensioning.
Algorithm Steps
- Initialize
ang1 and ang2 to 0. These angles are used for dimensioning but are not modified in this function.
- Retrieve the
pnt parameter using getfuncparams. If pnt is a scalar, convert it to a 3D point by setting its x and y components to 0.
- If
pnt is not provided, calculate it as the mean of the vertices in the solid geometry (SG.VL).
- Convert the input solid geometry to a standard format using
SGofSG.
- Check the number of output arguments (
nargout).
- If no output is expected, call
SGdimensioning with the parameters SG, ang1, ang2, pnt, and acc. Assign the result to CPL.
- If an output is expected, directly assign the result of
SGdimensioning to CPL.
