copyPasteBodies Problem with Linked Files

[ebunn3]

Hi,

Been working on a problem all morning that I cannot solve so I thought I'd reach out to the experts.  The code, I have pasted in below, used in conjunction with the file I have uploaded (Linked File Test v6.f3z) works with standard components but not with linked components.  The file I have attached has a linked component and an internal component.  You will see two copyPasteBodies features created, one having a body within it and one not.  Code does not crash, it just does not work for the linked component.  Can someone tell me how this can be repaired or give me a work around.  Thanks in advance!!!

Hi @ebunn3 .

The same operation in the GUI did not paste the Body.

If you don't mind not linking, you can use the TemporaryBRepManager.copy method.

Fixed.

I don’t care about the copied body not being linked.  I’ll try this out.   Thanks.
