plt3DIPlot SetAspectRatio

Sets the relative lengths of Y and Z axes with respect to X.

Syntax

plt3DIPlot_handle SetAspectRatioy_factor z_factor

Application

HyperWorks Tcl Query

Description

The aspect ratios of the axes can be set explicitly. The X axis is assumed always to have a length of one, with Y and Z axes having individual values associated with them to define the ratios. Once set, the ratios can be frozen by calling SetAspectRatioLocked. If not locked, the ratios may be changed by manipulations of the GUI.

Inputs

y_factor: Ratio of Y to X length.
z_factor: Ratio of Z to X length.

Example

To set the Y and Z aspect ratio factors of an existing plot:

hwi GetSessionHandle mySessionName
mySessionName GetProjectHandle myProjectName
myProjectName GetPageHandle myPageName 1
myPageName GetWindowHandle myWinName 1
myWinName GetClientHandle myClientName
myClientName GetSurfaceHandle mySurfaceName
myClientName SetAspectRatio 2 3
myClientName Draw

Errors

Success (0) or an error code.
