[binaryData=string], [booleanData=boolean], [doubleData=float], [intData=int], [longDataName=string], [maxValue=float], [minValue=float], [shortDataName=string], [showComp=boolean], [stringData=string], [subString=string], [typeId=int])
Note: Strings representing object names and
arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the
synopsis.
polyQueryBlindData is NOT undoable, NOT queryable,
and NOT editable.
Command query's blindData associated with particular polygonal
components. So, the command will require the following to be
specified: - selection list to query Optional are the: - typeId -
associationType - longDataName or shortDataName of data being
queried. - The actual data being specified. - showComponent flag
Note that for object level blind data, the showComponent flag will
be ignored. If no components are selected, the assocation flag will
be ignored and object level data will be queried.

Properties |
typeId(id) |
int |
 |
|
Specifies the typeId of the BlindData type being queried. If
the typeId is not specified, then all of the components that match
the query will be output. The typeId of the elements found will be
output if the ShowComponents option is used. Will be in the format
"object.component.attribute::typeId". If the typeId is specifed
then the "::typeId" portion will not be output with the
ShowComponents option. |
|
associationType(at) |
string |
|
|
Specifies the dataTypes that are part of BlindData node being
queried. Allowable associations are "object" for any object, and
"vertex" "edge" and "face" for mesh objects. |
|
longDataName(ldn) |
string |
 |
|
Specifies the long name of the data that is being queried by
this command. |
|
shortDataName(sdn) |
string |
|
|
Specifies the short name of the data that is being queried by
this command. |
|
minValue(min) |
float |
|
|
Specifies the minimum value to search for. This option will
query float, double and integer types of blind data. |
|
maxValue(max) |
float |
|
|
Specifies the maximum value to search for. This option will
query float, double, and integer types of blind data. |
|
subString(ss) |
string |
|
|
Specifies the substring that should be checked against a STRING
type blind data. If the sub string is found query is successful.
Will not look at non String type blind data elements. |
|
doubleData(dbd) |
float |
|
|
Specifies the double/float value to search for |
|
intData(ind) |
int |
|
|
Specifies the integer value to search for |
|
stringData(sd) |
string |
|
|
Specifies the string value to search for |
|
booleanData(bd) |
boolean |
|
|
Specifies the string value to search for |
|
binaryData(bnd) |
string |
|
|
Specifies the binary string value to search for |
|
showComp(sc) |
boolean |
|
|
The showComponent option controls whether the
object.[component].attribute name is output preceeding the actual
value. If the showComponent option is used then the restriction of
only returning 1 type of blind data (i.e. one of integer, float,
double... is removed, as the return for all are strings. If the
association is object and not component, then this option will
still cause all the attribute names to be printed |
