API access to NCPrograms

[dames123]

Is there a way to insure this toggle is off using the API?

Thanks.

Hi @dames123 

You can do like this 

ncProgram.parameters.itemByName('nc_program_orderByTool').value.value = False

Thank you @boopathi.sivakumar .

What's the difference between ncParameters and ncProgram.parameters? I can't find it in the help file. My script uses ncParameters.

example:

for setup in setups:

            ncIpt: adsk.cam.NCProgramInput = ncPrograms.createInput()

            ncIpt.displayName = setup.name

            ncParameters = ncIpt.parameters

            # Set the filename to the same as the setup parameter

            ncParameters.itemByName('nc_program_filename').value.value = setup.parameters.itemByName('job_programName').value.value

            ncParameters.itemByName('nc_program_openInEditor').value.value = False

            ncParameters.itemByName('nc_program_useMachineConfig').value.value = True

            ncParameters.itemByName('nc_program_comment').value.value = setup.parameters.itemByName('job_programComment').value.value

            #ncProgram.parameters.itemByName('nc_program_orderByTool').value.value = False

Ah! my case the variable name was ncProgram but in your case it should be like 

ncParameters.itemByName('nc_program_orderByTool').value.value = False

I tried that and it didn't seem to work at first but I figured it out.
