Each boco element is a list where the first element is 0 or 1 whether the data is active or not, the second is the type, such as WALL or INT, and the rest are the parameters. For information about what the available types and parameters are, see the Solver Parameters and Boundary Condition Data section for the solver you are interested in.

Finds all families that have a bctype named t2 with a value v2 and replaces the existing BCs that have types in newbcs with the new ones. (Ie.g.,. t1s might be {{1 BR 1 2 3} ...}, t2 might be CONSTRAINT_NAME, and v2 might be "foo 123". Used for ai*env. Note that this automatically *includes* families with : in them. If a value is given for replace_these it should be a list of bctypes to get rid of, else the types are taken from newbcs. Returns the families that were so modified.

ic_boco_parts_dim parts
Returns the dimensions of the part.
ic_boco_reset_fam_dim
Warning: hack ...
If you call ic_boco_fam_dim, then you change something, and then you call it again, you will get the old data. This is because the list_families_and_dimensions_and_sides function is too slow so the results have to be cached. As a temporary workaround, call ic_boco_reset_fam_dim to clear out the old data.

ic_boco_add_icon type fam icontype locations scale maxnum color label params vis only_dims
Creates a new BC icon for a given family. The arguments are:
type : the kind of BC, such as "temperature", "pressure", etc. If another icon of the same type and family is already there it will be deleted. In general this could be the bctype of the BC that this icon represents.
fam: the family name.
icontype: the shape of the icon to draw. These are listed below.
locations: the XYZ locations of where the icons should be drawn. If this list is empty then they will be automatically computed. This list can also be a geometry type, "geometry" or "unsmap". That restricts the automatic computation to that object.
scale: a size scale for the icons. Default is 1.0
maxnum: the maximum number of icons to draw. If there are more nodes or elements than this value then just one icon will be drawn at the centroid of the family. 0 means no limits.
color: the color to use for the icon.
params: depends on the icontype value as described below.
The different icon shape types are as follows:
arrow: draw an arrow. The params are:
direction: an XYZ triple that gives the arrow's direction
nheads_end: how many heads to draw at the end. If this value is 0 then no head will be drawn. If it is -1 then an X will be drawn.
open_end: should the heads be open, if arrows are drawn, and if nheads is -1 then this is the linewidth to use when drawing the X
nheads_start (optional) : how many heads to draw at the start
open_start (optional) : should the heads be open at the start.
circle: draw a circle. The params are:
pixels: the size of the circle
open: if 0 the circle is filled, if 1 it is wireframe
triangle: draw a triangle (like a constraint). The params are:
pixels: the size of the triangle
open: if 0 the triangle is filled, if 1 it is wireframe
tail: draw a tail on it
helix: draw a spring-like helix. The params are:
ntwists: the number of twists
radius: the radius as a factor of the length

ic_boco_ensure_part_exists nfam

ic_boco_set_for_objects objects bocos pre nfam
Applies a list of BCs to either a set of geometrical entities or a mesh subset. objects is a list of type, names, ... The types can be surface, curve, point, material, subset, or unsmap. Families are composed of "groups" separated by commas. Each group is also a family whether it's used or not. Groups are named G0, G1, etc, where the prefix G could be anything such as CN for constraints. This function returns a list of the new family names that have been created.
Note: If you pass a unsmap in as one of the objects parameters, this function will delete it. The nfam argument is the name of a group to use, instead of checking to see if a new one should be created
