Capture Plant 3D Stair Width Value

Phil — Thu, 30 Mar 2017 13:11:59 GMT

Hi all

I am looking at a lisp routine to draw multi-flight stairways in Plant 3D 2015.

(Now someone's going to jump in and say this is included in 2016/17/18 - No?)

What I would like to do is capture the value of Stair Width that is current at the time of launching my routine.

The user input for this is located at:

Structure tab - Parts Ribbon Menu - Settings drop down menu - Stair Settings - first input field under Geometry

Anyone know how to extract this value for lisp integration please?

Thanks

Phil

the Structural Part of Plant 3D is hard-coded from the base values.
This is also the reason why the Structural Catalog can not be extended.

OK Thanks Hartmut

I can live with it, it just means that users will have to enter the same information in two locations.
