Need API to create multi block

nubrandao — Wed, 10 Apr 2024 19:52:17 GMT

Hi, tried to use chatgpt to create api to create a box bY inputing Box X, Box Y and Box Z.

It work the input but nothing happens.

Anyway, Im wondering if someone any API to create One or Multiple box.

My need is because i work with 8 to 10 diferent mould inserts (body)

And each body has his own size stock.

I usually have to Open a new Window, draw a box with required size and then copy to no project One by One.

For now, i have a box in project with defined parAmeters, so i ONLY Change the size and then copy One by One.

If anyone hás a better ideia, please share

Hi @nubrandao -San.

We created a sample that creates a block when you enter a size in the input box.

# Fusion360API Python script import traceback import adsk.core as core import adsk.fusion as fusion def run(context): ui: core.UserInterface = None try: app: core.Application = core.Application.get() ui = app.userInterface des: fusion.Design = app.activeProduct root: fusion.Component = des.rootComponent inputTxt, res = ui.inputBox( "Please enter 'x,y,z' for the block size\ne.g.) 10,20,30", "create block sample", "10,20,30", ) if res: return try: xyz = [float(v) for v in inputTxt.split(",")] except: ui.messageBox( "Input value is invalid.", "Error") return unitsMgr: core.UnitsManager = des.unitsManager ratio = unitsMgr.convert( 1, unitsMgr.defaultLengthUnits, unitsMgr.internalUnits, ) tmpMgr: fusion.TemporaryBRepManager = fusion.TemporaryBRepManager.get() tmpBox: fusion.BRepBody = tmpMgr.createBox( core.OrientedBoundingBox3D.create( core.Point3D.create(0,0,0), core.Vector3D.create(0,1,0), core.Vector3D.create(1,0,0), xyz[1] * ratio, xyz[0] * ratio, xyz[2] * ratio ) ) baseFeat: fusion.BaseFeature = None if des.designType == fusion.DesignTypes.ParametricDesignType: baseFeat = root.features.baseFeatures.add() bodies: fusion.BRepBodies = root.bRepBodies if baseFeat: try: baseFeat.startEdit() bodies.add(tmpBox, baseFeat) except: pass finally: baseFeat.finishEdit() else: bodies.add(tmpBox) ui.messageBox('Done') except: if ui: ui.messageBox('Failed:\n{}'.format(traceback.format_exc()))
