InstanceReferenceGeometry Methods

If this piece of geometry is a component in something larger, like a BrepEdge in a Brep, then this function returns the component index.

Assigns a parent object and a sub-object index to this.

Returns a CRC calculated from the information that defines the object. This CRC can be used as a quick way to see if two objects are not identical.

Actively reclaims unmanaged resources that this instance uses.

Overridden in order to destroy local display cache information

Constructs a deep (full) copy of this object.

Constructs a light copy of this object. By "light", it is meant that the same underlying data is used until something is done to attempt to change it. For example, you could have a shallow copy of a very heavy mesh object and the same underlying data will be used when doing things like inspecting the number of faces on the mesh. If you modify the location of one of the mesh vertices, the shallow copy will create a full duplicate of the underlying mesh data and the shallow copy will become a deep copy.

If you want to keep a copy of this class around by holding onto it in a variable after a command completes, call EnsurePrivateCopy to make sure that this class is not tied to the document. You can call this function as many times as you want.

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

Passively reclaims unmanaged resources when the class user did not explicitly call Dispose().

Bounding box solver. Gets the world axis aligned bounding box for the geometry.

Aligned Bounding box solver. Gets the plane aligned bounding box.

Aligned Bounding box solver. Gets the world axis aligned bounding box for the transformed geometry.

Aligned Bounding box solver. Gets the plane aligned bounding box.

Serves as the default hash function.

Populates a System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo with the data needed to serialize the target object.

Gets the Type of the current instance.

Gets user string from this geometry.

Gets a copy of all (user key string, user value string) pairs attached to this geometry.

Determines if an object is valid. Also provides a report on errors if this object happens not to be valid.

If possible, converts the object into a form that can be accurately modified with "squishy" transformations like projections, shears, an non-uniform scaling.

Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.

Computes an estimate of the number of bytes that this object is using in memory.

Destroy cache handle

Is called when a non-constant operation occurs.

Rotates the object about the specified axis. A positive rotation angle results in a counter-clockwise rotation about the axis (right hand rule).

Scales the object by the specified factor. The scale is centered at the origin.

Attach a user string (key,value combination) to this geometry.

Create a JSON string representation of this object

Returns a string that represents the current object.

Transforms the geometry. If the input Transform has a SimilarityType of OrientationReversing, you may want to consider flipping the transformed geometry after calling this function when it makes sense. For example, you may want to call Flip() on a Brep after transforming it.

Translates the object along the specified vector.

Translates the object along the specified vector.
