Contents

Action

Determines whether to test that a face's edges lie on its surface during checking.

Name String

check_edge_on_face

Scheme

Type Values Default
boolean #f, #t #f

C++

Type Values Default
logical FALSE, TRUE FALSE

Description

This option controls whether or not api_check_entity checks that each of a face's edges lies on the face's surface, that is, each edge's curve is coincident with the face's surface to the tolerance of the edge. By default this is not done, because it is a computationally expensive test. If this option is enabled, and an edge or tedge is found not to lie on the face's surface during checking, then an EDGE_OFF_FACE (non-tolerant edge) or TEDGE_OFF_FACE (tolerant edge) error is returned by api_check_entity.

Example

; check_edge_on_face 
; Turn on checking of edge curves on face's surface 
(option:set "check_edge_on_face" #t) 
;; #f
