Description Sets the ray path node number assignment for a given surface. The surface will report itself as the assigned node number for ray path purposes.
Syntax SetSurfRayPathNode surfNode, pathNode
Parameters surfNode As Long Node number of the surface whose ray path node number is being assigned. This node ID must be a surface or the function will halt with error, "A referenced entity is not of the correct type".
pathNode As Long Node number to be reported by the surface for ray path purposes.
Example The following example code queries a surface named "Surf 1" for its ray path node number assignment and prints the information to the output window.
Dim surfNode As Long, pathNode As Long
'surface node whose reported ray path node id is being specified surfNode = FindFullName( "Geometry.Subassembly 1.Elem 1.Surf 1" )
'node number to be reported by surfNode pathNode = FindFullName( "Geometry.Subassembly 1.Elem 1" )
'set and print ray path node number specification SetSurfRayPathNode surfNode, pathNode Print Chr(34) & GetFullName( surfNode ) & Chr(34) & " reports as node " & Chr(34) & GetFullName( pathNode ) & Chr(34) & " for ray path purposes."
