Module Contents

ifcopenshell.api.alignment.create_representation.create_representation(file: ifcopenshell.file, alignment: ifcopenshell.entity_instance) → None

Creates the geometric representation of an alignment if it does not already exist. This function is intended to be used when a model has only the semantic definition of an alignment and you want to add the geometric representation.

If the alignments are complete, it is recommended that add_zero_length_segment is called after this method to ensure the proper structure of the semantic and geometric definitions of the alignment

Parameters:

alignment – The alignment to create the representation.
