Name MODELCOMPSET with workplane name

raffnecBNJ8C — Sat, 21 Mar 2020 11:58:54 GMT

I want to create several MODELCOMPSET whose names will contain the name of the workplane name.
For instance:
a_G55
b_G55
a_G56
b_G56

But I don’t understand the syntax of writing a macro.

CREATE LEVEL a_$workplane.name MODELCOMPSET

I get MODELCOMPSET with the name "a_$workplane.name", I wanted it to be a_G56.

FOREACH wp IN FOLDER("WORKPLANE") { STRING $newName = "a_" + $wp.Name IF NOT entity_exists(entity("Level",newName)) { CREATE LEVEL $newName MODELCOMPSET } }
