Paid gig - Fusion API Python Script

info83PHN — Sun, 07 Nov 2021 07:37:10 GMT

Hi all

I really don't know how to get started, so looking for someone to make a script which I can later expand on to.

Script needs :

Input Dialog with 7 line text area, OK, Cancel.
On 'Cancel', close dialog, do nothing.

On 'OK', close dialog and then ...

Convert the 7 lines of text from the text input area to Uppercase.

Split the 7 lines of text in to variables ( userVarName, userVar1, userVar2, userVar3 .... , userVar6 ) and trim off and blank spaces either end of each variable.

'Save As' the opened design as 'userVarName'.

Change view to 'Home' ( to center the model )

Change view to 'Front'

Edit 'Sketch1'

Sketch1 contains 6 text items. Change the text in the text items to userVar1 ... userVar6

If the userVar = the text "SMALLER" then set the text size to 6.75mm

If the userVar = the text "LARGE" then set the text size to 9mm

Note - the above 6 text items in the sketch could be moved to different sketches is it is easier to process.

Leave the Sketch open in Edit mode and end the script.

Hi @info83PHN .

There were multiple parts I didn't understand, but I tried to create a script with my interpretation.

# Fusion360API Python script import traceback import adsk.fusion import adsk.core def run(context): ui: adsk.core.UserInterface = None try: app: adsk.core.Application = adsk.core.Application.get() ui = app.userInterface des: adsk.fusion.Design = app.activeProduct root: adsk.fusion.Component = des.rootComponent # input values msg1: str = 'Please enter the following values.\n' msg2: str = 'userVarName,userVar1,userVar2,userVar3,userVar4,userVar5,userVar6' resValues, cancelled = ui.inputBox(msg1 + msg2, '', msg2) if cancelled: return # split values = resValues.split(',') if len(values) != 7: ui.messageBox('The characters you entered are incorrect.') return # convert & trim values = [s.strip().upper() for s in values] # saveAs - activeProject.rootFolder rootFolder: adsk.core.DataFolder = app.data.activeProject.rootFolder doc: adsk.fusion.FusionDocument = app.activeDocument doc.saveAs(values[0], rootFolder, '', '') # view vp: adsk.core.Viewport = app.activeViewport vp.fit() cam: adsk.core.Camera = vp.camera cam.viewOrientation = adsk.core.ViewOrientations.FrontViewOrientation vp.camera = cam vp.refresh() # get sketch1 - from root component skt1: adsk.fusion.Sketch = root.sketches.itemByName('sketch1') if not skt1: ui.messageBox('"sketch1" is not found.') return if skt1.sketchTexts.count < 6: ui.messageBox('"sketch1" has less than 6 texts.') return # Rewriting sketch text # The combination of the text in sketch1 and the input text is unknown. # For now, I'll assume the order in which they were found. unitMgr: adsk.core.UnitsManager = des.unitsManager txt: adsk.fusion.SketchText for txt, value in zip(skt1.sketchTexts, values[1:]): txt.text = value if value == 'SMALLER': txt.height = unitMgr.convert(6.75, 'mm', unitMgr.internalUnits) if value == 'LARGE': txt.height = unitMgr.convert(9., 'mm', unitMgr.internalUnits) # Edit mode for sketches sels: adsk.core.Selections = ui.activeSelections sels.clear() sels.add(skt1) app.executeTextCommand(u'Commands.Start SketchActivate') # finish ui.messageBox('Done') except: if ui: ui.messageBox('Failed:\n{}'.format(traceback.format_exc()))

I can't visualize what you are thinking, just in words.

Thank You Makoto.

At first glance it looks like your script will almost do what I need. As I am a novice with python, I will need some time to work through this and try and understand the code ( last coded in VB5 about 15 years ago ).

Thank You

Thank You kandennti

Your code certainly put me on the right track and I was able to reach my goal from there.
