The LeafFromModelElemLabels object can be used whenever a Leaf object is expected as an argument. Leaf objects are used to specify the items in a display group. Leaf objects are constructed as temporary objects, which are then used as arguments to DisplayGroup commands.
The LeafFromModelElemLabels object is derived from the Leaf object.
import displayGroupOdbToolset
This method creates a Leaf object from a sequence of element labels spanning several part instances.
LeafFromModelElemLabels
Required argument
A sequence of Strings specifying expressions that denote element labels per part instance in the model. Each part instance element expression is a sequence of a String specifying the part instance name and a sequence of element expressions; for example, (('partInstance1',(1,'7','3:15;3'),), ('partInstance2','8'),)). The element expressions can be any of the following:
An Int specifying a single element label; for example, 1.
A String specifying a single element label; for example, '7'.
A String specifying a sequence of element labels; for example, '3:5' and '3:15:3'.
Optional arguments
Return value
A LeafFromModelElemLabels object.
Exceptions
The LeafFromModelElemLabels object has members with the same names and descriptions as the arguments to the LeafFromModelElemLabels method.
In addition, the LeafFromModelElemLabels object has the following member:
A SymbolicConstant specifying the leaf type. Possible values are EMPTY, DEFAULT_MODEL, ALL_ELEMENTS, ALL_NODES, and ALL_SURFACES.
