Description
Get the normal at a given 1D geometry
Scripting Syntax
Geometry1D.Normal( compIdx, compNor )
Parameters

Parameter |
Type |
Description |
|
compIdx |
Index of the component Possible Values: • 0 <= compIdx < Number of 1D geometry: The compIdx must be valid |
|
|
compNor [in/out] |
Upon return, contains the normal at the (compIdx)th 1D geometry |
Return Value
Boolean. True if the normal is valid; otherwise False
Examples
VBScript Example
'Create a cube
CreatePrim "Cube", "MeshSurface"
set oSelList = GetValue("SelectionList")
set oItem = oSelList(0)
set oGeometry = oItem.obj
oNb1D = oGeometry.Nb1D
set o1DGeometry = oGeometry.Geometry1D
set oNor = XSIMath.CreateVector3()
' Loop on all the 1D geometry
for i = 0 to oNb1D - 1
if o1DGeometry.Normal( i, oNor ) then
LogMessage "Component [" & i & "] normal : " & oNor.x & " | " & oNor.y & " | " & oNor.z
end if
