pytha.remove_grain_direction

Removes the grain direction from a plate.

pytha.remove_grain_direction(target)

Parameter	Type	Description
target	element_handle or {...}	A part or group handle (or a table of those), or a list of edge specifications

Return value

Type	Description
number	The number of edges the grain direction was removed from

Notes:

• A part or group handle removes the grain direction from every grain edge of those parts, including the edge on the opposite face.
• A direction edge that was created as a free line and carries no face is deleted; an edge of the part itself only loses the attribute and returns to the main pen of the part.
• Edges without a grain direction are skipped, so the return value counts the edges that actually carried one.
• The x axis of the part is not touched, use remove_x_axis_direction for that.
• The function requires the Workshop license, test for it with check_license_workshop.

Example:

local n = pytha.remove_grain_direction(part)
