simetrix.CurveData

class simetrix.CurveData(obj: GraphObject)

Bases: GraphObject

Associated with SIMetrix CurveData object. Each Curve may possess 1 or more CurveData objects with each one storing the curve’s data including data history. Use the vector method to access the actual data.

Methods

prop(propertyName)

Returns the property with the name given.

properties()

Returns the set of properties for this object.

setPropertyValue(propertyName, propertyValue)

Sets a property value for an object.

Attributes

id

Returns the ID of the object.

type

Returns the object type.

valid

Returns True if the GraphObject is valid.

vector

Returns a GroupVector object providing access to the object's data.

__init__(obj: GraphObject) CurveData
property id: int

Returns the ID of the object. This can be used to pass to a native SIMetrix script function.

prop(propertyName: str) GraphProperty

Returns the property with the name given. Can also use property().

Some properties have a symbolic value denoted by enclosing the value with ‘%’ characters. The property method will return the resolved value instead of the symbolic value if the name is prefixed with the ‘@’ character. For example:

print(curve.prop('@Label').Value)

The Label property usually has the value %DefaultLabel% which is what would be returned by the method if the ‘@’ character were omitted. The resolved value is the value of the DefaultLabel property.

properties() list[GraphProperty]

Returns the set of properties for this object.

Example

Print the name and data type for all properties belonging to the current graph.

import simetrix as sx

graph = sx.currentGraph()

props= graph.properties()

for p in props :
    print(p.name, p.type)
setPropertyValue(propertyName: str, propertyValue: str | float)

Sets a property value for an object.

As explained in GraphProperty GraphProperty obejcts can have one of five data types. However, writeable properties can only be scalar string or scalar real valued. Hence this method can only accept real or string data for the property value.

Example

import simetrix as sx

# Get the current graph
graph = sx.currentGraph()

# Get the first curve available
curve = graph.curves()[0]

# Change the curve colour to green
curve.setPropertyValue('RGBColour', 32768)
property type: GraphObjectType

Returns the object type.

property valid: bool

Returns True if the GraphObject is valid.

A GraphObject obtained from the GraphProperty of another GraphObject will not necessarily be valid. The following example obtains the MainCursor property of the current graph. This will be an invalid object if cursors are not enabled.

import simetrix as sx

graph = sx.currentGraph()

mainCursor = graph.prop('MainCursor')

if mainCursor.value.valid :
    print("Cursors are enabled")
else :
    print("Cursors are not enabled")
property vector: GroupVector

Returns a GroupVector object providing access to the object’s data.

Examples

Print the data in all curveData objects belonging to a Curve

import simetrix as sx

graph = sx.currentGraph()

curvedataProp = graph.curves()[0].prop("CurveDatas")

for curveData in curvedataProp.objects :
    data = curveData.vector.y
    print ("\nCurveData id=", curveData.id)
    for d in data :
        print(d)
