Attention for Customers without Multi-Factor Authentication or Single Sign-On - OTP Verification rolls out April 2025. Read all about it here.

Nice to hear that, it will save alot of time and potential errors.

 

For now I am trying to implement by API, but I am still not able to select the right direction in an easy way. Do you know if I can use the vector of the X or Y axis that I extract from the wcs like in the python script in the previous post or I must draw a line follow this vector and try to insert this value?

 

            (origin, xAxis, yAxis, zAxis) = setup.workCoordinateSystem.getAsCoordinateSystem()

            for op in ops:
                opName=op.name
                if opName=='BORR 8 LEFT':
                    opToolOrient0=op.parameters.itemByName('overrideToolView')
                    opToolOrient0.expression="true"
                    opToolOrient1=op.parameters.itemByName('view_orientation_mode')
                    opToolOrient1.expression="'axesZX'"
                    opToolOrientZ=op.parameters.itemByName('view_orientation_axisZ')
                    opToolOrientZ.expression="true"
                    cadObjectParam: adsk.cam.CadObjectParameterValue = opToolOrientZ.value
                    zdirection=cadObjectParam.value
                    zdirection.append(xAxis)
                    cadObjectParam.value = zdirection

 

I have tried to follow the indication in the documentation but it still does not seems to work.

 

thanks
