SubtractSolid

Description

Function SubtractSolid creates a new solid subtraction object from the referenced source objects.

Table - Solids Operation Result Codes

Operation Result Result Code
Success 0
Null geometry error 1
Geometry error 2
Out of memory error 4
Bad group error 5
Invalid object type 6
Bad input 20 
FUNCTION SubtractSolid(
				obj1         : HANDLE;
				obj2         : HANDLE;
				VAR newSolid : HANDLE): INTEGER;
def vs.SubtractSolid(obj1, obj2):
    return (INTEGER, newSolid)

Parameters

Name Type Description
obj1 HANDLE Handle to source object for subtract operation.
obj2 HANDLE Handle to source object for subtract operation.
newSolid HANDLE Handle to resultant object from subtract operation.

Remarks

_c_ (2018.02.11): obj1 = clipped, obj2 = clipper

Everything cuts the backmost object, which will be the 1st retrived using FIn3D.

A solid subtraction has object type 84 and subtype 516. Mind, also other objects have type 84, such as Generic Solids (eventually generated using ExtrudeAlongPath)

Examples

	ClosePoly;
	Poly(X-Length, Y-depth+Inset,X-depth+Inset+LeftLength, Y-RightLength-Length,2*(X+Length-depth+Inset+LeftLength)-Length, -2*(Y-RightLength)-Length,2*X-Length,- 2*(Y+Length-depth+Inset)-Length);
EndXtrd;
Cut := LNewObj;
Result := SubtractSolid(Circle,Cut,Temp);
BeginXtrd(pKick_Height+(HmTDH-pKick_Height)*kBottomDrawerPct, QD3DDelta +pKick_Height+(HmTDH-pKick_Height)*kBottomDrawerPct);
	Arc(X+inset-Length,Y+inset-Length,X-inset,Y-inset,0,360);
EndXtrd;
Circle := LNewObj;

		ELSE {Other cabinets}
			Rect(X1-kSlatSpace+I*SlatWidth,Y1,X1+kSlatSpace+I*SlatWidth,Y1-SHeight);
	END;
EndXtrd;
I := SubtractSolid(SlabHand,LNewObj,Grooved);
AttrReconfig(Grooved,parmHand);

resultcode:=AddSolid(hVault1,hVault2,hVaultComb);
resultcode:=SubtractSolid(hTower,hVaultComb,hCampi);
SetTextureRef(hCampi,-1,3);

obj1 = vs.FSActLayer()  # handle to the first selected object on the active layer
obj2 = vs.NextSObj(vs.FSActLayer())  # handle to the next selected object

resultN, newSolid = vs.SubtractSolid(obj1, obj2)
vs.Message('SubtractSolid returned: ' + str((resultN, newSolid)))
