Other functions

setGlobalParam(var, val);

Sets the global var variable in the val value.

Example:

 if(rLen2 <= B/4){
    SetGeomConstraint(INSERT, CODIRECT, obj, WP1, obj.WP2, 0);
    setGlobalParam(rSubType, CONTRDIRECT);
} else if(abs(rLen1) <= B/4) {
    SetGeomConstraint(INSERT, CODIRECT, obj, WP1, obj.WP1, 0);
    setGlobalParam(rSubType, CODIRECT);
    } else {
        SetGeomConstraint(INSERT, rSubType, obj, WP1, obj.WP1, rLen1);
};

GridRound(b)

Align the values by grid. The parameter of the grid is specified in the parameters or in prompt parameters (Ctrl+Shft+Q by default);

Example:

a = GridRound(b);

If the grid step is 5 and, b ==12.4, the function returns 10; If the b >= 12.5 function returns 15.

rDiameter = GridRound(abs(rYcoord*2));

paramByName(strName)

Returns the parameter value by its name:

Example:

strName = GetNearestPlane(obj); plane = paramByName(strName);

getChildrenCount()

Returns the number of child objects

getChildId(nChild);

Returns the identifier of the nChild child object.
