Solid

SOLID (DXF Reference) is a filled triangle or quadrilateral. Access vertices by name (entity.dxf.vtx0 = (1.7, 2.3)) or by index (entity[0] = (1.7, 2.3)). If only 3 vertices are provided the last (3rd) vertex will be repeated in the DXF file.

The SOLID entity stores the vertices in an unusual way, the last two vertices are reversed. The coordinates [(0, 0), (1, 0), (1, 1), (0, 1)] do not create a square as you would expect:

Reverse the last two vertices to get the expected square: [(0, 0), (1, 0), (0, 1), (1, 1)]

Note

The Solid.vertices() and Solid.wcs_vertices() methods return the vertices in the expected (reversed) order.

class ezdxf.entities.Solid

dxf.vtx0

Location of 1. vertex (2D/3D Point in OCS)

dxf.vtx1

Location of 2. vertex (2D/3D Point in OCS)

dxf.vtx2

Location of 3. vertex (2D/3D Point in OCS)

dxf.vtx3

Location of 4. vertex (2D/3D Point in OCS)

transform(m: Matrix44) → Solid

Transform the SOLID/TRACE entity by transformation matrix m inplace.

vertices(close: bool = False) → List[Vec3]

Returns OCS vertices in correct order, if argument close is True, last vertex == first vertex. Does not return duplicated last vertex if represents a triangle.

New in version 0.15.

wcs_vertices(close: bool = False) → List[Vec3]

Returns WCS vertices in correct order, if argument close is True, last vertex == first vertex. Does not return duplicated last vertex if represents a triangle.

New in version 0.15.
