T-FLEX Parametric CAD. Fundamentals. 2D Design

Variables
BOMPAGES – returns the total number of pages in the BOM of the document containing a given
fragment;
BOMPAGE – returns the number of the page of the BOM which contains a given fragment.
The values of these characteristics are calculated for the document-fragment inside the assembly.
For example, if in the document of the fragment the user created the variable the value of which is
specified by the expression (“apage”, -1), then inside the document of the fragment the value of this
variable will be equal to -1, and inside аn assembly document – to the number of the page of the
document which contains a given fragment.
List of Characteristics of T-FLEX CAD Document Processed by Function SETV()
Characteristics of 2D pages of document:
SCALE – scale of current drawing;
XL – coordinate X of left border of drawing;
XH – coordinate X of right border of drawing;
YL – coordinate Y of lower border of drawing;
YH – coordinate Y of upper border of drawing;
FSIZE – font size of the drawing.
LTHICK – thickness of main lines in the drawing.
TLTHICK – thickness of main lines in the drawing.
Characteristics of 3D scene of document:
EXPLODE – state of exploded view mode for the fragments of 3D model of the current document (0 –
exploded view mode is turned off, 1 – turned on).
Examples of Using Functions
getv("SCALE",0) – returns the value of the scale specified for the first page of the current document;
getv("SCALE_Page 2",-1) – returns the value of the scale specified for the page of the current document
with the name “Page 2”. If this page is absent in the document, the function returns the value “-1”;
getv("mass",0) – returns the value of mass of all bodies in the 3D scene of the current document. If the
3D scene is empty, the function returns the value “0”;
setv("SCALE_Front_0",2) – this functions sets the value of the scale equal to 2 for the page “Front_0”
(page of workplane “Front view”);
setv("explode",1) – this function activates the exploded view mode for the 3D model in the current
document.
Using Function TGETV ()
Function tgetv() allows the user to obtain the values of system’s text characteristics of the current T-
FLEX CAD document.
Syntax of functions:
tgetv ("NAME"), where NAME – the name of text parameter of the system or the current document.
Any of the following characteristics can be used as parameter of this function:
USERNAME – Name of current user of the system;
YEAR – Current year;
