X3D node tooltip: (X3D version 3.1 or later) [X3DGroupingNode,X3DProductStructureChildNode] CADAssembly holds a set of Computer-Aided Design (CAD) assemblies or parts grouped together. CADAssembly is a Grouping node that can contain CADAssembly (subassembly), CADPart or CADFace nodes.

• Hint: can also contain Shapes or other grouped content.
• Hint: X3D for Advanced Modeling (X3D4AM) slideset
  http://x3dgraphics.com/slidesets/X3dForAdvancedModeling/ComputerAidedDesignInterchangeProfile.pdf
• Warning: requires X3D profile='Full' or else include <component name='CADGeometry' level='2'/>
• Hint: ViewpointGroup and OrthoViewpoint require Navigation component level 3, which is higher than CADInterchange profile.

Package hint: This org.web3d.x3d.jsail concrete class is used for implementing a standalone X3D object as a Plain Old Java Object (POJO). If you are writing Java code for use inside an X3D Script node, compile separate code using only the org.web3d.x3d.sai package instead.

Returns:

CADAssemblyObject - namely this same object to allow sequential method pipelining (i.e. consecutive method invocations on the same object).

setDEF

public CADAssemblyObject setDEF(SFStringObject newValue)

Assign typed object value to SFString DEF field, similar to setDEF(String).

Parameters:

newValue - is new value for the DEF field.

setUSE

public final CADAssemblyObject setUSE(java.lang.String newValue)

Assign String value to inputOutput SFString field named USE.

Tooltip: USE means reuse an already DEF-ed node ID, excluding all child nodes and all other attributes (except for containerField, which can have a different value). Hint: USE references to previously defined DEF geometry (instead of duplicating nodes) can improve performance. Warning: do NOT include any child nodes, a DEF attribute, or any other attribute values (except for containerField) when defining a USE attribute. Warning: each USE value must match a corresponding DEF value that is defined earlier in the scene.

Note: each USE node is still an independent object, with the USE value matching the DEF value in the preceding object.

Warning: invoking the setUSE() method on this node resets all other fields to their default values (except for containerField) and also releases all child nodes.

Warning: no other operations can be performed to modify a USE node other than setting an alternate containerField value.
