Example a_backup/cad_implant: CAD implant: Using OpenCASCADE to import CAD data from step or iges formatted

Using OpenCASCADE to import CAD data from step or iges formatted

This example will import a CAD file femoral head implant and visualise it.

Created May, 2011 by Hugh Sorby.

The comfile run by this example is as follows:

#Example_cad_implant: Import a CAD drawing saved in either step or iges formats.

# Import the CAD data
gfx import file ${example}/femoral_head_implant.step

# The CAD import function sets up three fields for each CAD entity found in
# the file.  A CAD entity is not only defined by the format but also from how
# the object was constructed.  For the femoaral head implant the CAD fields are 
# added to a region called "0:1:1:1".  The import command will automatically 
# create three fields: temp0; temp0-geo; temp0-col.  It will also set up an 
# RGB spectrum if one is not already defined, simply to use the CAD colour 
# field to colour the CAD entities correctly. The three fields that are 
# created on import are described here
#    DePuy...AP214 - This is the topological representation of the CAD entity, it is
#            essentially the interface between OpenCASCADE and Cmgui.  This
#            field doesn't evaluate locations as it really knows nothing about
#            where it is.
#    DePuy...AP214_geo - This is the geometric representation of the CAD entity, 
#            it is a triangulisation of the CAD entity elements
#    DePuy...AP214_col - This is a simple field that evaluates to, what may be
#            considered, the colour of the CAD entity when applied using the RGB
#            spectrum which is set up when the import command is used if not already 
#            present.
# Note: DePuy...AP214 is not the actual name of the field, it is a shortened form. The
# actual field name is DePuy_S_FOR_47_9623_62_Femoral_Head_Impant___Not_to_size_STEPAP214 
# To display the CAD entity the default coordinates need to be set to DePuy...AP214_geo
# and a surface needs to be added. The lines are turned invisible because they
# depict the construction and not the CAD entity outline as might be expected.
