lines

property Geometry.lines: MultiBlock

Geometry of the lines.

Obtain the selected lines as a pyvista.MultiBlock object.

Returns:

pv.MultiBlock

Examples

>>> mapdl.geometry.lines
MultiBlock (0x147b77e20)
  N Blocks    45
  X Bounds    -0.016, 0.016
  Y Bounds    -0.008, 0.018
  Z Bounds    -0.003, 0.015

You can plot the entities:

>>> mapdl.geometry.lines.plot()

You can access the individual lines using indexing:

>>> line0 = mapdl.geometry.lines[0]
>>> line0
PolyData (0x147d5b220)
  N Cells:    1
  N Points:   100
  N Strips:   0
  X Bounds:   0.000e+00, 0.000e+00
  Y Bounds:   -7.620e-03, 1.778e-02
  Z Bounds:   -3.180e-03, -3.180e-03
  N Arrays:   1

You can use the entity name:

>>> line1 = mapdl.geometry.lines["line 1"]
>>> line1
PolyData (0x147d5b220)
  N Cells:    1
  N Points:   100
  N Strips:   0
  X Bounds:   0.000e+00, 0.000e+00
  Y Bounds:   -7.620e-03, 1.778e-02
  Z Bounds:   -3.180e-03, -3.180e-03
  N Arrays:   1

You can iterate the different elements:

>>> points = mapdl.geometry.lines
>>> for each_line in points:
        print(each_line)
