SD-INQ-REC-FEATURE  [function]

(sd-inq-rec-feature face :type flag)
Description:
Returns all faces belonging to the recognized feature identified by face. If face is not part of a recognized feature, the function returns all faces of the part.
If the flag :type is set, the return value contains the type of the recognized feature as well.

Parameters:
face {SEL_ITEM} - the face to identify the recognized feature
:type {BOOLEAN [nil]} - include feature type in result or not

Return Value:
Depending on how the flag :type was set:
faces {LIST of SEL_ITEMs} - all faces belonging to the recognized feature (:type = nil) or
facelist and type {LIST} (in case of :type = t)
The first element in the result list is the list of all faces belonging to the recognized feature. The second item is a keyword describing the type of the recognized feature. This keyword can be one of the following:
  • :boss
  • :pocket
  • :hole
  • :complex

(sd-inq-elem-name elem)
Description:
Returns the name of a named element, or nil if the element does not have a name.

Parameters:
elem {SEL_ITEM} - The element to inquire the name of

Return Value:
name {STRING} - The element name
nil - if the specified element is not valid

SD-FACE-NAME-TO-ELEM  [function]

(sd-face-name-to-elem :name name :part name)
Description:
Converts a face name (plus a reference to the part that owns the face) into a SEL_ITEM representation of the face element. The part that owns the face is required because face names are only unique for a given part.

Parameters:
:name {STRING} - The face name
:part {SEL_ITEM} - The part that owns the face

Return Value:
elem {SEL_ITEM} - The face item
nil - the specified face does not exist or the specified part

(sd-edge-name-to-elem :name name :part part)
Description:
Converts an edge name (plus a reference to the part that owns the edge) into a SEL_ITEM representation of the edge element. The part that owns the edge is required because edge names are only unique for a given part.

Parameters:
:name {STRING} - The edge name
:part {SEL_ITEM} - The part that owns the edge

Return Value:
elem {SEL_ITEM} - The edge item
nil - the specified edge does not exist or the specified part is not valid

Parameters:
:name {STRING} - The vertex name
:part {SEL_ITEM} - The part that owns the vertex

Return Value:
elem {SEL_ITEM} - The vertex item
nil - the specified vertex does not exist or the specified part is not valid
