Representation Items Module
###########################

Creates and accesses entities that represent Representation items.

Representation item entities define individual objects that are present in a CAD file, such as a bolt, wheel, or table leg.

Multiple representation items are contained within a part definition, which scales and positions the representation items within a 3D space. The result is a 3D part that can be assembled into higher level product occurrences, such as an engine part, car, or table.

An :c:type:`~A3DRiRepresentationItem`\ contains a local :c:type:`~A3DRiCoordinateSystem`\ . The :c:type:`~A3DRiCoordinateSystem`\ coordinate system is expressed relative to the parent product occurrence's coordinate system (:c:type:`~A3DAsmProductOccurrence`\ ).

All representation item entities inherit the :c:type:`~A3DRiRepresentationItem`\ base class.
