TRIA, tria_name, b_opt, body_nr, mat_nr, layer_nr, x1, y1, x2, y2, x3, y3, orient_ang;

Creates a triangular primitive for mass bodies or anchors

Input Data⚓︎

Parameter Description
tria_name Reference name of the primitive (can be empty)
→ Alphanumeric name, has to start with a letter
b_opt Type of the Boolean operation
add → Add a primitive to the mass body or anchor
sub → Subtract a primitive from a mass body or anchor
body_nr Reference number of related mass body or anchor
→ If 0 → The primitive is related to anchors
→ If > 0 → The primitive is related to the specified mass body
mat_nr Reference number of the material properties
→ Use existing material properties only (see MATP command)
layer_nr Layer number (the current version supports only one layer)
→ If empty, the primitive is part of the first layer
x1 X-coordinate of the first point (connecting point)
y1 Y-coordinate of the first point (connecting point)
x2 Second x-coordinate of the primitive
y2 Second y-coordinate of the primitive
x3 Third x-coordinate of the primitive
y3 Third y-coordinate of the primitive
orient_ang Orientation angle in degrees at the connecting point: 0 ≤ orient_ang < 360
