@section occt_draw_1 Introduction

This manual explains how to use Draw, the test harness for Open CASCADE Technology (**OCCT**).
Draw is a command interpreter based on TCL and a graphical system used to test and demonstrate Open CASCADE Technology modeling libraries. 

@subsection occt_draw_1_1 Overview

Draw is a test harness for Open CASCADE Technology. It provides a flexible and easy to use means of testing and demonstrating the OCCT modeling libraries. 

Draw can be used interactively to create, display and modify objects such as curves, surfaces and topological shapes. 

Scripts may be written to customize Draw and perform tests. New types of objects and new commands may be added using the C++ programing language. 

Draw consists of: 

  * A command interpreter based on the TCL command language.
  * A 3d graphic viewer based on the X system.
  * A basic set of commands covering scripts, variables and graphics.
  * A set of geometric commands allowing the user to create and modify curves and surfaces and to use OCCT geometry algorithms. This set of commands is optional.
  * A set of topological commands allowing the user to create and modify BRep shapes and to use the OCCT topology algorithms.


There is also a set of commands for each delivery unit in the modeling libraries: 

  * GEOMETRY, 
  * TOPOLOGY, 
  * ADVALGOS, 
  * GRAPHIC, 
  * PRESENTATION.

This document is a reference manual. It contains a full description of each command. All descriptions have the format illustrated below for the exit command. 

~~~~~
exit
~~~~~

Terminates the Draw, TCL session. If the commands are read from a file using the source command, this will terminate the file. 

**Example:** 

~~~~~
# this is a very short example 
exit 
~~~~~


@subsection occt_draw_1_3 Getting started

Install Draw and launch Emacs. Get a command line in Emacs using *Esc x* and key in *woksh*. 

All DRAW Test Harness can be activated in the common executable called **DRAWEXE**. They are grouped in toolkits and can be loaded at run-time thereby implementing dynamically loaded plug-ins. Thus, it is possible to work only with the required commands adding them dynamically without leaving the Test Harness session. 

Declaration of available plug-ins is done through the special resource file(s). The *pload* command loads the plug-in in accordance with the specified resource file and activates the commands implemented in the plug-in. 

@subsubsection occt_draw_1_3_1 Launching DRAW Test Harness

Test Harness executable *DRAWEXE* is located in the <i>$CASROOT/\<platform\>/bin</i> directory (where \<platform\> is Win for Windows and Linux for Linux operating systems). Prior to launching it is important to make sure that the environment is correctly setup (usually this is done automatically after the installation process on Windows or after launching specific scripts on Linux).  


@subsubsection occt_draw_1_3_2 Plug-in resource file

Open CASCADE Technology is shipped with the DrawPlugin resource file located in the <i>$CASROOT/src/DrawResources</i> directory. 

The format of the file is compliant with standard Open CASCADE Technology resource files (see the *Resource_Manager.hxx* file for details). 

Each key defines a sequence of either further (nested) keys or a name of the dynamic library. Keys can be nested down to an arbitrary level. However, cyclic dependencies between the keys are not checked. 

**Example:** (excerpt from DrawPlugin): 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
OCAF               : VISUALIZATION, OCAFKERNEL 
VISUALIZATION      : AISV 
OCAFKERNEL         : DCAF 

DCAF               : TKDCAF 
AISV               : TKViewerTest 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@subsubsection occt_draw_1_3_3 Activation of commands implemented in the plug-in

To load a plug-in declared in the resource file and to activate the commands the following command must be used in Test Harness: 

~~~~~
pload [-PluginFileName] [[Key1] [Key2]...]
~~~~~

where: 

* <i>-PluginFileName</i> -- defines the name of a plug-in resource file (prefix "-" is mandatory) described above. If this parameter is omitted then the default name *DrawPlugin* is used. 
* *Key* -- defines the key(s) enumerating plug-ins to be loaded. If no keys are specified then the key named *DEFAULT* is used (if there is no such key in the file then no plug-ins are loaded). 

According to the OCCT resource file management rules, to access the resource file the environment variable *CSF_PluginFileNameDefaults* (and optionally *CSF_PluginFileNameUserDefaults*) must be set and point to the directory storing the resource file. If it is omitted then the plug-in resource file will be searched in the <i>$CASROOT/src/DrawResources</i> directory. 

~~~~~
Draw[]        pload -DrawPlugin OCAF 
~~~~~
This command will search the resource file *DrawPlugin* using variable *CSF_DrawPluginDefaults* (and *CSF_DrawPluginUserDefaults*) and will start with the OCAF key. Since the *DrawPlugin* is the file shipped with Open CASCADE Technology it will be found in the <i>$CASROOT/src/DrawResources</i> directory (unless this location is redefined by user's variables). The OCAF key will be recursively extracted into two toolkits/plug-ins: *TKDCAF* and *TKViewerTest* (e.g. on Windows they correspond to *TKDCAF.dll* and *TKViewerTest.dll*). Thus, commands implemented for Visualization and OCAF will be loaded and activated in Test Harness. 

~~~~~
Draw[]        pload (equivalent to pload -DrawPlugin DEFAULT). 
~~~~~
This command will find the default DrawPlugin file and the DEFAULT key. The latter finally maps to the TKTopTest toolkit which implements basic modeling commands. 


@section occt_draw_2 The Command Language

@subsection occt_draw_2_1 Overview

The command language used in Draw is Tcl. Tcl documentation such as "TCL and the TK Toolkit" by John K. Ousterhout (Addison-Wesley) will prove useful if you intend to use Draw extensively. 

This chapter is designed to give you a short outline of both the TCL language and some extensions included in Draw. The following topics are covered: 

  * Syntax of the TCL language.
  * Accessing variables in TCL and Draw.
  * Control structures.
  * Procedures.

@subsection occt_draw_2_2 Syntax of TCL

TCL is an interpreted command language, not a structured language like C, Pascal, LISP or Basic. It uses a shell similar to that of csh. TCL is, however, easier to use than csh because control structures and procedures are easier to define. As well, because TCL does not assign a process to each command, it is faster than csh. 

The basic program for TCL is a script. A script consists of one or more commands. Commands are separated by new lines or semicolons. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
set a 24 
set b 15 
set a 25; set b 15 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Each command consists of one or more *words*; the first word is the name of a command and additional words are arguments to that command. 

Words are separated by spaces or tabs. In the preceding example each of the four commands has three words. A command may contain any number of words and each word is a string of arbitrary length. 

The evaluation of a command by TCL is done in two steps. In the first step, the command is parsed and broken into words. Some substitutions are also performed. In the second step, the command procedure corresponding to the first word is called and the other words are interpreted as arguments. In the first step, there is only string manipulation, The words only acquire *meaning* in the second step by the command procedure. 

The following substitutions are performed by TCL: 

Variable substitution is triggered by the $ character (as with csh), the content of the variable is substitued; { } may be used as in csh to enclose the name of the variable. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# set a variable value 
set file documentation 
puts $file #to display file contents on the screen 

# a simple substitution, set psfile to documentation.ps 
set psfile $file.ps 
puts $psfile 

# another substitution, set pfile to documentationPS 
set pfile ${file}PS 

# a last one, 
# delete files NEWdocumentation and OLDdocumentation 
foreach prefix {NEW OLD} {rm $prefix$file} 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Command substitution is triggered by the [ ] characters. The brackets must enclose a valid script. The script is evaluated and the result is substituted. 

Compare command construction in csh. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
set degree 30 
set pi 3.14159265 
# expr is a command evaluating a numeric expression 
set radian [expr $pi*$degree/180] 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Backslash substitution is triggered by the backslash character. It is used to insert special characters like $, [ , ] , etc. It is also useful to insert a new line, a backslash terminated line is continued on the following line. 

TCL uses two forms of *quoting* to prevent substitution and word breaking. 

Double quote *quoting* enables the definition of a string with space and tabs as a single word. Substitutions are still performed inside the inverted commas " ". 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# set msg to ;the price is 12.00; 
set price 12.00 
set msg ;the price is $price; 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Braces *quoting* prevents all substitutions. Braces are also nested. The main use of braces is to defer evaluation when defining procedures and control structures. Braces are used for a clearer presentation of TCL scripts on several lines. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
set x 0 
# this will loop for ever 
# because while argument is ;0 < 3; 
while ;$x < 3; {set x [expr $x+1]} 
# this will terminate as expected because 
# while argument is {$x < 3} 
while {$x < 3} {set x [expr $x+1]} 
# this can be written also 
while {$x < 3} { 
set x [expr $x+1] 
} 
# the following cannot be written 
# because while requires two arguments 
while {$x < 3} 
{ 
set x [expr $x+1] 
} 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Comments start with a \# character as the first non-blank character in a command. To add a comment at the end of the line, the comment must be preceded by a semi-colon to end the preceding command. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# This is a comment 
set a 1 # this is not a comment 
set b 1; # this is a comment 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The number of words is never changed by substitution when parsing in TCL. For example, the result of a substitution is always a single word. This is different from csh but convenient as the behavior of the parser is more predictable. It may sometimes be necessary to force a second round of parsing. **eval** accomplishes this: it accepts several arguments, concatenates them and executes the resulting script. 


**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
# I want to delete two files 

set files ;foo bar; 

# this will fail because rm will receive only one argument 
# and complain that ;foo bar; does not exit 

exec rm $files 

# a second evaluation will do it 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@subsection occt_draw_2_3 Accessing variables in TCL and Draw

TCL variables have only string values. Note that even numeric values are stored as string literals, and computations using the **expr** command start by parsing the strings. Draw, however, requires variables with other kinds of values such as curves, surfaces or topological shapes. 

TCL provides a mechanism to link user data to variables. Using this functionality, Draw defines its variables as TCL variables with associated data. 

The string value of a Draw variable is meaningless. It is usually set to the name of the variable itself. Consequently, preceding a Draw variable with a <i>$</i> does not change the result of a command. The content of a Draw variable is accessed using appropriate commands. 

There are many kinds of Draw variables, and new ones may be added with C++. Geometric and topological variables are described below. 

Draw numeric variables can be used within an expression anywhere a Draw command requires a numeric value. The *expr* command is useless in this case as the variables are stored not as strings but as floating point values. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# dset is used for numeric variables 
# pi is a predefined Draw variable 
dset angle pi/3 radius 10 
point p radius*cos(angle) radius*sin(angle) 0 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It is recommended that you use TCL variables only for strings and Draw for numerals. That way, you will avoid the *expr* command. As a rule, Geometry and Topology require numbers but no strings. 

@subsubsection occt_draw_2_3_1 set, unset

Syntax:                  

~~~~~
set varname [value] 
unset varname [varname varname ...] 
~~~~~

*set* assigns a string value to a variable. If the variable does not already exist, it is created. 

Without a value, *set* returns the content of the variable. 

*unset* deletes variables. It is is also used to delete Draw variables. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
set a "Hello world"
set b "Goodbye" 
set a 
== "Hello world" 
unset a b 
set a 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

**Note**, that the *set* command can set only one variable, unlike the *dset* command. 


@subsubsection occt_draw_2_3_2 dset, dval

Syntax

~~~~~
dset var1 value1 vr2 value2 ... 
dval name 
~~~~~

*dset* assigns values to Draw numeric variables. The argument can be any numeric expression including Draw numeric variables. Since all Draw commands expect a numeric expression, there is no need to use $ or *expr*. The *dset* command can assign several variables. If there is an odd number of arguments, the last variable will be assigned a value of 0. If the variable does not exist, it will be created. 

*dval* evaluates an expression containing Draw numeric variables and returns the result as a string, even in the case of a single variable. This is not used in Draw commands as these usually interpret the expression. It is used for basic TCL commands expecting strings. 


**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# z is set to 0 
dset x 10 y 15 z 
== 0 

# no $ required for Draw commands 
point p x y z 

# "puts" prints a string 
puts ;x = [dval x], cos(x/pi) = [dval cos(x/pi)]; 
== x = 10, cos(x/pi) = -0.99913874099467914 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

**Note,** that in TCL, parentheses are not considered to be special characters. Do not forget to quote an expression if it contains spaces in order to avoid parsing different words. <i>(a + b)</i> is parsed as three words: <i>"(a + b)"</i> or <i>(a+b)</i> are correct.

@subsubsection occt_draw_2_3_3 del, dall

Syntax:      
~~~~~
del varname_pattern [varname_pattern ...] 
dall
~~~~~

*del* command does the same thing as *unset*, but it deletes the variables matched by the pattern.

*dall* command deletes all variables in the session.

@subsection occt_draw_2_4 lists

TCL uses lists. A list is a string containing elements separated by spaces or tabs. If the string contains braces, the braced part accounts as one element. 

This allows you to insert lists within lists. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# a list of 3 strings 
;a b c; 

# a list of two strings the first is a list of 2 
;{a b} c; 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Many TCL commands return lists and **foreach** is a useful way to create loops on list elements. 

@subsubsection occt_draw_2_5 Control Structures

TCL allows looping using control structures. The control structures are implemented by commands and their syntax is very similar to that of their C counterparts (**if**, **while**, **switch**, etc.). In this case, there are two main differences between TCL and C: 

* You use braces instead of parentheses to enclose conditions. 
* You do not start the script on the next line of your command. 


@subsubsection occt_draw_2_5_1 if

Syntax       

~~~~~
if condition script [elseif script .... else script] 
~~~~~

**If** evaluates the condition and the script to see whether the condition is true. 



**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
if {$x > 0} { 
puts ;positive; 
} elseif {$x == 0} { 
puts ;null; 
} else { 
puts ;negative; 
} 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@subsubsection occt_draw_2_5_2 while, for, foreach

Syntax:                  


~~~~~~
while condition script 
for init condition reinit script 
foreach varname list script 
~~~~~

The three loop structures are similar to their C or csh equivalent. It is important to use braces to delay evaluation. **foreach** will assign the elements of the list to the variable before evaluating the script. \

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# while example 
dset x 1.1 
while {[dval x] < 100} { 
  circle c 0 0 x 
  dset x x*x 
} 
# for example 
# incr var d, increments a variable of d (default 1) 
for {set i 0} {$i < 10} {incr i} { 
  dset angle $i*pi/10 
  point p$i cos(angle0 sin(angle) 0 
} 
# foreach example 
foreach object {crapo tomson lucas} {display $object} 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@subsubsection occt_draw_2_5_3 break, continue

Syntax:                  

~~~~~
break 
continue 
~~~~~

Within loops, the **break** and **continue** commands have the same effect as in C. 

**break** interrupts the innermost loop and **continue** jumps to the next iteration. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# search the index for which t$i has value ;secret; 
for {set i 1} {$i <= 100} {incr i} { 
  if {[set t$i] == ;secret;} break; 
} 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@subsection occt_draw_2_6 Procedures

TCL can be extended by defining procedures using the **proc** command, which sets up a context of local variables, binds arguments and executes a TCL script. 

The only problematic aspect of procedures is that variables are strictly local, and as they are implicitly created when used, it may be difficult to detect errors. 

There are two means of accessing a variable outside the scope of the current procedures: **global** declares a global variable (a variable outside all procedures); **upvar** accesses a variable in the scope of the caller. Since arguments in TCL are always string values, the only way to pass Draw variables is by reference, i.e. passing the name of the variable and using the **upvar** command as in the following examples. 

As TCL is not a strongly typed language it is very difficult to detect programming errors and debugging can be tedious. TCL procedures are, of course, not designed for large scale software development but for testing and simple command or interactive writing. 


@subsubsection occt_draw_2_6_1 proc

Syntax:

~~~~~
proc argumentlist script 
~~~~~

**proc** defines a procedure. An argument may have a default value. It is then a list of the form {argument value}. The script is the body of the procedure. 

**return** gives a return value to the procedure. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# simple procedure 
proc hello {} { 
  puts ;hello world; 
} 
# procedure with arguments and default values 
proc distance {x1 y1 {x2 0} {y2 0}} { 
  set d [expr (x2-x1)*(x2-x1) + (y2-y1)*(y2-y1)] 
  return [expr sqrt(d)] 
} 
proc fact n { 
  if {$n == 0} {return 1} else { 
    return [expr n*[fact [expr n -1]]] 
  } 
} 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


@subsubsection occt_draw_2_6_2 global, upvar

Syntax:                 

~~~~~
global varname [varname ...] 
upvar varname localname [varname localname ...] 
~~~~~


**global** accesses high level variables. Unlike C, global variables are not visible in procedures. 

**upvar** gives a local name to a variable in the caller scope. This is useful when an argument is the name of a variable instead of a value. This is a call by reference and is the only way to use Draw variables as arguments. 

**Note** that in the following examples the \$ character is always necessarily used to access the arguments.
 
**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# convert degree to radian 
# pi is a global variable 
proc deg2rad (degree} { 
  return [dval pi*$degree/2.] 
} 
# create line with a point and an angle 
proc linang {linename x y angle} { 
  upvar linename l 
  line l $x $y cos($angle) sin($angle) 
}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@section occt_draw_3 Basic Commands

This chapter describes all the commands defined in the basic Draw package. Some are TCL commands, but most of them have been formulated in Draw. These commands are found in all Draw applications. The commands are grouped into four sections: 

  * General commands, which are used for Draw and TCL management.
  * Variable commands, which are used to manage Draw variables such as storing and dumping.
  * Graphic commands, which are used to manage the graphic system, and so pertain to views.
  * Variable display commands, which are used to manage the display of objects within given views.

Note that Draw also features a GUI task bar providing an alternative way to give certain general, graphic and display commands 


@subsection occt_draw_3_1 General commands

This section describes several useful commands:

  * **help** to get information, 
  * **source** to eval a script from a file, 
  * **spy** to capture the commands in a file,
  * **cpulimit** to limit the process cpu time, 
  * **wait** to waste some time, 
  * **chrono** to time commands. 

@subsubsection occt_draw_3_1_1 help

Syntax:                  

~~~~~
help [command [helpstring group]] 
~~~~~

Provides help or modifies the help information. 

**help** without arguments lists all groups and the commands in each group. 

Specifying the command returns its syntax and in some cases, information on the command, The joker \* is automatically added at the end so that all completing commands are returned as well. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# Gives help on all commands starting with *a* 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


@subsubsection occt_draw_3_1_2 source

Syntax:

~~~~~
source filename 
~~~~~
Executes a file. 

The **exit** command will terminate the file. 

@subsubsection occt_draw_3_1_3 spy

Syntax:                  

~~~~~
spy [filename] 
~~~~~

Saves interactive commands in the file. If spying has already been performed, the current file is closed. **spy** without an argument closes the current file and stops spying. If a file already exists, the file is overwritten. Commands are not appended. 

If a command returns an error it is saved with a comment mark. 

The file created by **spy** can be executed with the **source** command. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# all commands will be saved in the file ;session; 
spy session 
# the file ;session; is closed and commands are not saved 
spy 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



@subsubsection occt_draw_3_1_4 cpulimit

Syntax:                  

~~~~~
cpulimit [nbseconds] 
~~~~~

**cpulimit**limits a process after the number of seconds specified in nbseconds. It is used in tests to avoid infinite loops. **cpulimit** without arguments removes all existing limits. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
#limit cpu to one hour 
cpulimit 3600 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@subsubsection occt_draw_3_1_5 wait

Syntax:
~~~~~
wait [nbseconds] 
~~~~~
Suspends execution for the number of seconds specified in *nbseconds*. The default value is ten (10) seconds. This is a useful command for a slide show. 

~~~~~
# You have ten seconds ... 
wait 
~~~~~

@subsubsection occt_draw_3_1_6 chrono

Syntax:                  

~~~~~
chrono [ name start/stop/reset/show/restart/[counter text]]
~~~~~

Without arguments, **chrono** activates Draw chronometers. The elapsed time ,cpu system and cpu user times for each command will be printed. 

With arguments, **chrono** is used to manage activated chronometers. You can perform the following actions with a chronometer. 
  * run the chronometer (start).
  * stop the chronometer (stop).
  * reset the chronometer to 0 (reset).
  * restart the chronometer (restart).
  * display the current time (show).
  * display the current time with specified text (output example - *COUNTER text: N*), command <i>testdiff</i> will compare such outputs between two test runs (counter).

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
chrono 
==Chronometers activated. 
ptorus t 20 5 
==Elapsed time: 0 Hours 0 Minutes 0.0318 Seconds 
==CPU user time: 0.01 seconds 
==CPU system time: 0 seconds 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@subsection occt_draw_3_2  Variable management commands

@subsubsection occt_draw_3_2_1 isdraw, directory

Syntax:                  
~~~~~
isdraw varname 
directory [pattern] 
~~~~~

**isdraw** tests to see if a variable is a Draw variable. **isdraw** will return 1 if there is a Draw value attached to the variable. 

Use **directory** to return a list of all Draw global variables matching a pattern. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
set a 1 
isdraw a 
=== 0 

dset a 1 
isdraw a 
=== 1 

circle c 0 0 1 0 5 
isdraw c 
=== 1 

# to destroy all Draw objects with name containing curve 
foreach var [directory *curve*] {unset $var} 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


@subsubsection occt_draw_3_2_2 whatis, dump

Syntax:

~~~~~
whatis varname [varname ...] 
dump varname [varname ...] 
~~~~~

**whatis** returns short information about a Draw variable. This is usually the type name. 

**dump** returns a brief type description, the coordinates, and if need be, the parameters of a Draw variable. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
circle c 0 0 1 0 5 
whatis c 
c is a 2d curve 

dump c 

***** Dump of c ***** 
Circle 
Center :0, 0 
XAxis :1, 0 
YAxis :-0, 1 
Radius :5 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

**Note** The behavior of *whatis* on other variables (not Draw) is not excellent. 


@subsubsection occt_draw_3_2_3 renamevar, copy

Syntax:      
~~~~~
renamevar varname tovarname [varname tovarname ...] 
copy varname tovarname [varname tovarname ...] 
~~~~~

  * **renamevar** changes the name of a Draw variable. The original variable will no longer exist. Note that the content is not modified. Only the name is changed. 
  * **copy** creates a new variable with a copy of the content of an existing variable. The exact behavior of **copy** is type dependent; in the case of certain topological variables, the content may still be shared. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
circle c1 0 0 1 0 5 
renamevar c1 c2 

# curves are copied, c2 will not be modified 
copy c2 c3 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@subsubsection occt_draw_3_2_4 datadir, save, restore

Syntax:
~~~~~
datadir [directory] 
save variable [filename] 
restore filename [variablename] 
~~~~~

  * **datadir** without arguments prints the path of the current data directory. 
  * **datadir** with an argument sets the data directory path. \

If the path starts with a dot (.) only the last directory name will be changed in the path. 

  * **save** writes a file in the data directory with the content of a variable. By default the name of the file is the name of the variable. To give a different name use a second argument. 
  * **restore** reads the content of a file in the data directory in a local variable. By default, the name of the variable is the name of the file. To give a different name, use a second argument. 

The exact content of the file is type-dependent. They are usually ASCII files and so, architecture independent. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# note how TCL accesses shell environment variables 
# using $env() 
datadir 
==. 

datadir $env(WBCONTAINER)/data/default 
==/adv_20/BAG/data/default 

box b 10 20 30 
save b theBox 
==/adv_20/BAG/data/default/theBox 

# when TCL does not find a command it tries a shell command 
ls [datadir]

@section occt_draw_4 Graphic Commands

Graphic commands are used to manage the Draw graphic system. Draw provides a 2d and a 3d viewer with up to 30 views. Views are numbered and the index of the view is displayed in the window’s title. Objects are displayed in all 2d views or in all 3d views, depending on their type. 2d objects can only be viewed in 2d views while 3d objects -- only in 3d views correspondingly. 

@subsection occt_draw_4_1 Axonometric viewer

@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_1 view, delete

Syntax:                  
~~~~~
view index type [X Y W H] 
delete [index] 
~~~~~

**view** is the basic view creation command: it creates a new view with the given index. If a view with this index already exits, it is deleted. The view is created with default parameters and X Y W H are the position and dimensions of the window on the screen. Default values are 0, 0, 500, 500. 

As a rule it is far simpler either to use the procedures **axo**, **top**, **left** or to click on the desired view type in the menu under *Views* in the task bar.. 

**delete** deletes a view. If no index is given, all the views are deleted. 

Type selects from the following range: 

  * *AXON* : Axonometric view
  * *PERS* : Perspective view
  * <i>+X+Y</i> : View on both axes (i.e. a top view), other codes are <i>-X+Y</i>, <i>+Y-Z</i>, etc.
  * <i>-2D-</i> : 2d view

The index, the type, the current zoom are displayed in the window title . 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# this is the content of the mu4 procedure 
proc mu4 {} { 
delete 
view 1 +X+Z 320 20 400 400 
view 2 +X+Y 320 450 400 400 
view 3 +Y+Z 728 20 400 400 
view 4 AXON 728 450 400 400 
} 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

See also: **axo, pers, top, bottom, left, right, front, back, mu4, v2d, av2d, smallview** 

@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_2  axo, pers, top, ...

Syntax:      

~~~~~
axo 
pers 
... 
smallview type 
~~~~~

All these commands are procedures used to define standard screen layout. They delete all existing views and create new ones. The layout usually complies with the European convention, i.e. a top view is under a front view. 

  * **axo** creates a large window axonometric view;
  * **pers** creates a large window perspective view;
  * **top**, **bottom**, **left**, **right**, **front**, **back** create a large window axis view;
  * **mu4** creates four small window views: front, left, top and axo.
  * **v2d** creates a large window 2d view.
  * **av2d** creates two small window views, one 2d and one axo
  * **smallview** creates a view at the bottom right of the screen of the given type. 

See also: **view**, **delete** 

@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_3 mu, md, 2dmu, 2dmd, zoom, 2dzoom

Syntax:

~~~~~
    mu [index] value 
    2dmu [index] value 
    zoom [index] value 
    wzoom 
~~~~~

* **mu** (magnify up) increases the zoom in one or several views by a factor of 10%. 
* **md** (magnify down) decreases the zoom by the inverse factor. **2dmu** and **2dmd** 
perform the same on one or all 2d views. 
* **zoom** and **2dzoom** set the zoom factor to a value specified by you. The current zoom factor is always displayed in the window’s title bar. Zoom 20 represents a full screen view in a large window; zoom 10, a full screen view in a small one. 
* **wzoom** (window zoom) allows you to select the area you want to zoom in on with the mouse. You will be prompted to give two of the corners of the area that you want to magnify and the rectangle so defined will occupy the window of the view. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
    # set a zoom of 2.5 
    zoom 2.5 

    # magnify by 10% 
    mu 1 

    # magnify by 20% 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
See also: **fit**, **2dfit** 


@subsubsection occt_draw_4_14 pu, pd, pl, pr, 2dpu, 2dpd, 2dpl, 2dpr

Syntax:                  

~~~~~
pu [index] 
pd [index] 
~~~~~

The <i>p_</i> commands are used to pan. **pu** and **pd** pan up and down respectively; **pl** and **pr** pan to the left and to the right respectively. Each time the view is displaced by 40 pixels. When no index is given, all views will pan in the direction specified. 
~~~~~
# you have selected one anonometric view
pu
# or
pu 1

# you have selected an mu4 view; the object in the third view will pan up
pu 3
~~~~~
See also: **fit**, **2dfit** 


@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_5 fit, 2dfit

Syntax:      

~~~~~
fit [index] 
2dfit [index] 
~~~~~

**fit** computes the best zoom and pans on the content of the view. The content of the view will be centered and fit the whole window. 

When fitting all views a unique zoom is computed for all the views. All views are on the same scale. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# fit only view 1 
fit 1 
# fit all 2d views 
2dfit 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
See also: **zoom**, **mu**, **pu** 


@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_6 u, d, l, r

Syntax:      

~~~~~
u [index] 
d [index] 
l [index] 
r [index] 
~~~~~

**u**, **d**, **l**, **r** Rotate the object in view around its axis by five degrees up, down, left or right respectively. This command is restricted to axonometric and perspective views. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# rotate the view up 
u 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_7 focal, fu, fd

Syntax:                  
~~~~~
focal [f] 
fu [index] 
fd [index] 
~~~~~

* **focal** changes the vantage point in perspective views. A low f value increases the perspective effect; a high one give a perspective similar to that of an axonometric view. The default value is 500. 
* **fu** and **fd** increase or decrease the focal value by 10%. **fd** makes the eye closer to the object. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
pers 
repeat 10 fd 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

**Note**: Do not use a negative or null focal value. 

See also: **pers** 

@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_8 color

Syntax: 

~~~~~
color index name 
~~~~~

**color** sets the color to a value. The index of the *color* is a value between 0 and 15. The name is an X window color name. The list of these can be found in the file *rgb.txt* in the X library directory. 

The default values are: 0 White, 1 Red, 2 Green, 3 Blue, 4 Cyan, 5 Gold, 6 Magenta, 7 Marron, 8 Orange, 9 Pink, 10 Salmon, 11 Violet, 12 Yellow, 13 Khaki, 14 Coral. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# change the value of blue 
color 3 "navy blue" 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


**Note** that the color change will be visible on the next redraw of the views, for example, after *fit* or *mu*, etc. 

@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_9 dtext

Syntax:      
~~~~~
dtext [x y [z]] string 
~~~~~

**dtext** displays a string in all 3d or 2d views. If no coordinates are given, a graphic selection is required. If two coordinates are given, the text is created in a 2d view at the position specified. With 3 coordinates, the text is created in a 3d view. 

The coordinates are real space coordinates. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# mark the origins 
dtext 0 0 bebop 
dtext 0 0 0 bebop 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_10 hardcopy, hcolor, xwd

Syntax:      
~~~~~
hardcopy [index] 
hcolor index width gray 
xwd [index] filename 
~~~~~

* **hardcopy** creates a postcript file called a4.ps in the current directory. This file contains the postscript description of the view index, and will allow you to print the view. 
* **hcolor** lets you change the aspect of lines in the postscript file. It allows to specify a width and a gray level for one of the 16 colors. **width** is measured in points with default value as 1, **gray** is the gray level from 0 = black to 1 = white with default value as 0. All colors are bound to the default values at the beginning. 
* **xwd** creates an X window xwd file from an active view. By default, the index is set to1. To visualize an xwd file, use the unix command **xwud**. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# all blue lines (color 3) 
# will be half-width and gray 
hcolor 3 0.5 

# make a postscript file and print it 
hardcopy 
lpr a4.ps 

# make an xwd file and display it 
xwd theview 
xwud -in theview 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

**Note:** When more than one view is present, specify the index of the view. 

Only use a postscript printer to print postscript files. 

See also: **color** 


@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_11 wclick, pick

Syntax:      
~~~~~
wclick 
pick index X Y Z b [nowait] 
~~~~~

**wclick** defers an event until the mouse button is clicked. The message <code>just click</code> is displayed. 

Use the **pick** command to get graphic input. The arguments must be names for variables where the results are stored. 
  * index: index of the view where the input was made.
  * X,Y,Z: 3d coordinates in real world.
  * b: b is the mouse button 1,2 or 3.

When there is an extra argument, its value is not used and the command does not wait for a click; the value of b may then be 0 if there has not been a click. 

This option is useful for tracking the pointer. 

**Note** that the results are stored in Draw numeric variables.

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# make a circle at mouse location 
pick index x y z b 
circle c x y z 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 30 

# make a dynamic circle at mouse location 
# stop when a button is clicked 
# (see the repaint command) 

dset b 0 
while {[dval b] == 0} { 
pick index x y z b nowait 
circle c x y z 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 30 
repaint 
} 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
See also: **repaint** 


Draw provides commands to manage the display of objects. 
* **display**, **donly** are used to display, 
* **erase**, **clear**, **2dclear** to erase. 
* **autodisplay** command is used to check whether variables are displayed when created. 

The variable name "." (dot) has a special status in Draw. Any Draw command expecting a Draw object as argument can be passed a dot. The meaning of the dot is the following. 
  * If the dot is an input argument, a graphic selection will be made. Instead of getting the object from a variable, Draw will ask you to select an object in a view.
  * If the dot is an output argument, an unnamed object will be created. Of course this makes sense only for graphic objects: if you create an unnamed number you will not be able to access it. This feature is used when you want to create objects for display only.
  * If you do not see what you expected while executing loops or sourcing files, use the **repaint** and **dflush** commands.

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# OK use dot to dump an object on the screen 
dump . 

point . x y z 

#Not OK. display points on a curve c 
# with dot no variables are created 
for {set i 0} {$i <= 10} {incr i} { 
cvalue c $i/10 x y z 
point . x y z 
} 

# point p x y z 
# would have displayed only one point 
# because the precedent variable content is erased 

# point p$i x y z 
# is an other solution, creating variables 
# p0, p1, p2, .... 

# give a name to a graphic object 
renamevar . x 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_12 autodisplay

Syntax:      

~~~~~
autodisplay [0/1] 
~~~~~

By default, Draw automatically displays any graphic object as soon as it is created. This behavior known as autodisplay can be removed with the command **autodisplay**. Without arguments, **autodisplay** toggles the autodisplay mode. The command always returns the current mode. 

When **autodisplay** is off, using the dot return argument is ineffective. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# c is displayed 
circle c 0 0 1 0 5 

# toggle the mode 
autodisplay 
== 0 
circle c 0 0 1 0 5 

# c is erased, but not displayed 
display c 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_13 display, donly

Syntax:      
~~~~~
display varname [varname ...] 
donly varname [varname ...] 
~~~~~

* **display** makes objects visible. 
* **donly** *display only* makes objects visible and erases all other objects. It is very useful to extract one object from a messy screen. 

**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
\# to see all objects 
foreach var [directory] {display $var} 

\# to select two objects and erase the other ones 
donly . . 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_14 erase, clear, 2dclear

Syntax:      

~~~~~
erase [varname varname ...] 
clear 
2dclear 
~~~~~

**erase** removes objects from all views. **erase** without arguments erases everything in 2d and 3d. 

**clear** erases only 3d objects and **2dclear** only 2d objects. **erase** without arguments is similar to  **clear; 2dclear**.


**Example:** 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~{.cpp}
# erase eveerything with a name starting with c_ 
foreach var [directory c_*] {erase $var} 

# clear 2d views 
2dclear 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_14_1 disp, don, era

These commands have the same meaning as correspondingly display, donly and erase, but with the difference that they evaluate the arguments using glob pattern rules. For example, to display all objects with names d_1, d_2, d_3, etc. it is enouth to run the command:
~~~~~{.cpp}
disp d_*
~~~~~

@subsubsection occt_draw_4_1_15 repaint, dflush


Syntax:

~~~~~
repaint 
dflush 
~~~~~

* **repaint** forces repainting of views. 
* **dflush** flushes the graphic buffers. 

These commands are useful within loops or in scripts. 

When an object is modified or erased, the whole view must be repainted. To avoid doing this too many times, Draw sets up a flag and delays the repaint to the end of the command in which the new prompt is issued. In a script, you may want to display the result of a change immediately. If the flag is raised, **repaint** will repaint the views and clear the flag. 

Graphic operations are buffered by Draw (and also by the X system). Usually the buffer is flushed at the end of a command and before graphic selection. If you want to flush the buffer from inside a script, use the **dflush** command.
