-How to work with objects from the GUI ?
-***************************************
-
-It is sometimes useful to work alternatively in the GUI of SALOME and in the Python Console. To fetch an object from the TUI simply type::
-
- myMesh_ref = salome.IDToObject( ID )
- # were ID is a string looking like "0:1:2:3" that appears in the Object Browser in the Entry column.
- # ( If hidden, show it by right clicking and checking the checkbox Entry )
- myMesh = smesh.Mesh(myMesh_ref)
-
-or::
-
- myMesh_ref = salome.myStudy.FindObjectByPath("/Mesh/myMesh").GetObject()
- #'/Mesh/myMesh' is a path to the desired object in the Object Browser
- myMesh = smesh.Mesh(myMesh_ref)
-
-or::
-
- # get a selected mesh
- from salome.gui import helper
- myMesh_ref = helper.getSObjectSelected()[0].GetObject()
- myMesh = smesh.Mesh(myMesh_ref)
-
-A result myMesh is an object of :class:`Mesh <smeshBuilder.Mesh>` class.
-
-.. note:: The first statement only gives you access to a reference to the object created via the GUI (`myMesh_ref`). But the methods available on this reference differ from those of :class:`Mesh <smeshBuilder.Mesh>` class documented in these help pages. That's why you have to create an instance of :class:`Mesh <smeshBuilder.Mesh>` class with the last statement.
