Mapdl.ptxy(x1='', y1='', x2='', y2='', x3='', y3='', x4='', y4='', **kwargs)[source]#

Defines coordinate pairs for use in polygons and prisms.

APDL Command: PTXY

Defines coordinate pairs for use in polygons and prisms [POLY, RPRISM]. The coordinates must be in the Cartesian coordinate system. The coordinate pairs must be input in a continuous order. PTXY may be repeated (up to 100 pairs) until the required pairs have been defined. The pairs will be saved until either the POLY or PRISM command is entered. Use PTXY,STAT to list the saved coordinate pairs. Use PTXY,DELE to delete all the saved coordinate pairs. See the RPOLY, RPRISM, and RPR4 commands for other ways to create polygons and prisms.

Parameters:
x1, y1, x2, y2, x3, y3, x4, y4

X and Y coordinate pairs on the working plane.
