How to specify work point in the CAM API.

[ysz77jp]

I know that fusion360 can use the CAM API to set parameters, but depending on the operation, I may have to select a point or a plane of the body.

For example, when the tool orientation is selected on a surface, or when the work origin is specified by a point.

It is easy to specify a point using the mouse in the GUI, but I don't know how to specify this point in the CAM API.

If anyone has written a python program that uses the API to specify a plane or point in CAM, please tell me exactly how to do it.

That's one of the big holes still remaining in the CAM API is that you cannot specify any geometry.  You can edit all of the other settings associated with an operation but not the geometry.  I'm also anxiously awaiting this but I don't know when it might be available.

I learned from your answer that that feature is not yet available in CAM.

I too hope that feature will be added to the 360.

Thanks so much for your information!!
