how to delete an operation

[TRIALCAD2014]

I'm surprised how crude the CAM API seems to be...

One can create a new cam operation but How can one do the opposite which is delete a cam operation?

How can one create a new setup? The examples show how to get an existing setup

How can we select bodies in an operation? Little point in creating an operation without being able to select bodies 🙂

Thank you or an light in this obscure area 🙂

Hi @TRIALCAD2014 .

Since there is no deleteMe method like the model ring object, it seems that deletion is not possible.

Why not set the isSuppressed property to False instead?

Perhaps Autodesk knows that many users would like a more powerful CAM API.
I expect that they are working hard on this for the long term.

Hi Kandennti,

Thank you for the suggestion.

Any idea what isSuppressed supposed to mean? The description offers no
explanation.


Cheers,
Adrian

It remains on the tree, but is not using operation.
