The 3D ACIS® Modeler (ACIS) is Spatial’s prominent 3D solid modeling engine. 3D InterOp is a CAD data translation framework (Interoperability)

From DocR19

There are several helper functions in transf.hxx that support the creation of a SPAtransf. Transformations can be applied to entities using api_transform_entity.

Signature

SPAtransf scale_transf( double scale );
 
SPAtransf scale_transf( double xs, double ys, double zs );
 
SPAtransf scale_transf( double xs, double ys, double zs, double xys, double xzs, double yzs );
 
SPAtransf shear_transf( double shearxy, double shearxz, double shearyz);
 
SPAtransf rotate_transf( double angle, SPAvector const &axis );
 
SPAtransf reflect_transf( SPAvector const &axis );
 
SPAtransf translate_transf( SPAvector const &disp );
 
SPAtransf coordinate_transf( SPAposition const &new_origin, SPAunit_vector const &new_x_axis, SPAunit_vector const &new_y_axis );

Example

ENTITY* ent = someentity;
SPAvector disp(2.0, 3.0, 4.0);
SPAtransf trans1 = translate_transf( disp );
outcome result = api_transform_entity(ent, trans1);

Scheme Commands

transform:reflection

transform:rotation

transform:compose

transform:inverse

transform:identity

Scheme Examples

; create a block
(define blk (solid:block 0 0 0 5 5 5))
; define a translation
(define trans1 (transform:translation (gvector 3 4 5)))
; define a rotation 
(define rot1 (transform:rotation (position 1 4 2) (gvector 1 1 2) 20))
; translate the block
(entity:transform blk trans1)
; rotate the block
(entity:transform blk rot1)
