To make a uniform cut of an hexahedra in python mode, you need the following arguments:

  • edge : an edge on the hexahedra to cut.

  • nbCuts: the number of cuts.

Use the function cutUni:

elts = doc.cutUni(edge, nbCuts)

GUI command: Uniform Cut

Custom Cut

To make a custom cut of an hexahedra you need the following arguments:

  • edge: an edge on the hexahedra to cut.

  • tl : the list of the lengths of the layers in ascendant order.

Use the funtion cut:
