This is impressive. Great job!

One thing to try adding to your code is to use the Sketch.isComputeDeferred property. As you add geometry and constraints to a sketch, Fusion is recomputing the position of geometry in the rest of the sketch and finding valid profiles within the sketch. Setting this property to True stops this computing from happening. You would set it to True, create all of the geometry in the sketch, and then set it back to False to allow the sketch to compute. This should noticeably improve the time it takes to construct the model.

Hi ekinsb,

I thank you for your comment and your suggestion. I will add the use of Sketch.isComputeDeferred in a new release of the script.

I did not know this property of the Sketch object. Your hint improve my Api knowledge and will reduce the script processing time.

Many thanks

Dino

Can you please re-upload the script. It says "This shared file or folder link has been removed or is unavailable to you."

Calling @dinocoglitore , it looks like your link to the python file is broken.
