5 <h2>Geometrical Object Types</h2>
7 <b>GetType function:</b>
9 The <b>Type</b> property of the geometrical object specifies the
10 way the object has been created. It is an integer identifier that
11 has a predefined value depending on the function type used for the
12 object creation. The type of the object can be retrieved using the
13 \b %GetType() function of the \b GEOM_Object interface.
15 <b>For example</b>: the geometrical object created using MakeBox()
16 functions has type equal to 7. The shape imported from the BREP,
17 IGES, STEP or other CAD file, has type equal to 1.
19 The possible values of the geometrical objects are listed in the table below:

72 Also geompy.py module provides a helper function ShapeIdToType()
73 that allows converting the geometrical object id value to its string representation.
75 For example, the output of the following code:
78 box = geompy.MakeBoxDXDYDZ(10,10,10)
79 type = geompy.ShapeIdToType(box.GetType())
83 will be the "BOX" value.
85 <b>GetShapeType function:</b>
87 The ShapeType property specifies the geometrical object in terms of
90 The possible values are defined in the GEOM namespace: { COMPOUND, COMPSOLID,
91 SOLID, SHELL, FACE, WIRE, EDGE, VERTEX, SHAPE }<br>
93 This type can be retrieved using the \b %GetShapeType() function
94 of the \b GEOM_Object interface.
100 box = geompy.MakeBoxDXDYDZ(10,10,10)
101 type = box.GetShapeType()
102 print type == GEOM.SOLID
105 The result is "True".
