create_layup_mapping_plot

LayupPlotDict.create_layup_mapping_plot(name=None, id=None, data_scope=[], ply_wise=True, add_to_active_set=True, locked=False, component=None, show_on_solids=True, active=True)​

Create a Layup Mapping Plot object.

  • Parameters:
    • name: Name of the plot.
    • id: ID for the plot.
    • data_scope: Object(s) defining the scope for which data is computed and returned. Applicable are: Imported Solid Model.
    • ply_wise: True or False (default). Decides whether to return the thickness of the individual plies or of the whole stack of plies present at an element.
    • show_on_solids: True or False (default). Whether to show the results on the shell or solid model (if present).
    • component: Specifies the active component.
    • show_on_solids: Whether to show the values of the solid element.
    • active: Whether the plot is active.
  • Returns: The plot object.

Example: : Create a thickness plot with Data Scope set to Element Set “All_Elements” in ply_wise mode:


>>> thick_plot = db.active_model.layup_plots.create_layup_mapping_plot(self, name="MyPlot", data_scope=[db.active_model.solid_models['ImportedSolidModel'], ply_wise = True)
