GrowNeighborPolygons (PolygonFaceCollection) *

Introduced

3.0

Description

Returns a collection of PolygonFace objects for all polygons that are adjacent to each Vertex of each PolygonFace in this collection, within a given distance.

Scripting Syntax

PolygonFaceCollection.GrowNeighborPolygons( [Distance] )

C# Syntax

PolygonFaceCollection PolygonFaceCollection.GrowNeighborPolygons( Int32 in_lDistance );

Parameters

Parameter

Type

Description

Distance

Integer

Distance is an integer value representing the degree of neighborhood (eg: degree=2 for a polygon means its adjacent polygons plus the adjacent polygons of the adjacent polygons)

Default Value: 1

Return Value

PolygonFaceCollection

Examples

VBScript Example

set oCube = ActiveSceneRoot.AddGeometry( "Cone", "MeshSurface" )
set oGeometry = oCube.ActivePrimitive.Geometry
set oSubComponent = oGeometry.CreateSubComponent(siPolygonCluster,Array(1,2))
set oPolygons = oSubComponent.ComponentCollection
set oNeighborPolygons = oPolygons.GrowNeighborPolygons
str = "Polygons around the polygons 1 and 2 are :"
for each n in oNeighborPolygons
       str = str & " " & n.index
next
logmessage str
