Accessing BRep of existing solids

[Anonymous]

Is it possible to access BRep of existing solids and build an adjacency matrix to describe the relation between different faces?

I have been trying to use adsk.fusion.BRepBody and adsk.fusion.BRepBodies, but they seam only thought for creating new solids, while I would like to analyse already existing one.

Cheers,

You can definitely access the brep of existing objects.

e.g. to access the brep of a body in the root component,

def run(_):
    app = adsk.core.Application.get()
    ui = app.userInterface

    design: adsk.fusion.Design = app.activeProduct
    root = design.rootComponent

    brep: adsk.fusion.BRepBody = root.bRepBodies[0]

    ui.messageBox('Body name: %s' % brep.name)

And of course you can traverse the component/occurrence hierarchy and similarly access any bodies in any sub-components, etc.
