Transform scale is confusing

Anonymous — Thu, 16 Aug 2018 07:41:42 GMT

I have a model with a transformed component, but the scale seems to be wrong when using the Python API to get the transform. The position of the sphere is at (100, 0, 0), and the box is as (0,0,0):

but is reported as (10, 0, 0). Here's the code:

try:
    app = adsk.core.Application.get()
    design = adsk.fusion.Design.cast(app.activeProduct)
    for occ in design.rootComponent.allOccurrences:
        trans = occ.transform
        print(occ.name, trans.translation.x, trans.translation.y, trans.translation.z)
except:
    print('Failed:\n{}'.format(traceback.format_exc()))

and the output:

>>> Sphere:1 10.0 0.0 0.0
Block:1 0.0 0.0 0.0

Am I missing something?

Thanks

Ben

Ok I see - length units are always in cm:
