Importing Image as Canvas Using API?

[Anonymous]

Hello all. Is there any way to import a .jpg or .png image to a plane using the API? Trying to insert a reference image to go alongside our 3D model. So far we have found out how to insert an .svg onto a construction plane, however the image quality is extremely poor after the conversion (from .jpg to .svg) thus it no longer has landmarks that serve our purpose. If there is any way to get a .jpg with a canvas onto a plane using the API that would be exactly what we are looking for! 

Thank you for your help!

Unfortunately, that capability is not supported by the API. Hopefully, at some point in the future, but I don't know.

Ah, too bad to hear. Thank you for the response! My team and I hope to see this feature implemented sometime in the future.

import adsk.core, adsk.fusion, traceback

def run(context😞

try:

app = adsk.core.Application.get()

ui = app.userInterface

# Get the active design.

product = app.activeProduct

design = adsk.fusion.Design.cast(product)

root = design.rootComponent

# Get the path to the image file.

file_path = r"C:\path\to\image.png"

# Import the image into Fusion 360.

import_manager = design.importManager

import_options = import_manager.createImportOptions(file_path)

imported = import_manager.importToRootComponent(import_options)

ui.messageBox("Image imported successfully!", "Success")

except:

ui.messageBox("Failed to import image:\n{}".format(traceback.format_exc()), "Error")

What is this sample supposed to be? It doesn't work and is calling a function that doesn't exist.
