create_field_definition_plot

LayupPlotDict.create_field_definition_plot(name=None, id=None, scope_entire_model=True, data_scope=[], field_variable_name=None, show_on_solids=False, add_to_active_set=True, locked=False)

Create a FieldDefinition Plot object.

• Parameters:
  • name: Name of the plot.
  • id: ID for the plot.
  • scope_entire_model: If True, then the scope of this plot is the entire model. If not, then set to false and use the data_scope to specify a sub scope.
  • data_scope: Object(s) defining the scope for which data is computed and returned. Applicable are: Element Set, Oriented Selection Set, Modeling Ply.
  • show_on_solids: True or False (default). Whether to show the results on the shell or solid model (if present).
• Returns: The plot object.

Example: : Create a field definition plot for field degradation with Data Scope set to Element Set “All_Elements” in ply_wise mode:

>>> field_plot = db.active_model.layup_plots.create_field_definition_plot(self, name="MyPlot", field_variable_name="degradation", data_scope=db.active_model.element_sets['All_Elements'], ply_wise = True)
