Hi! Thank you for creating this supportive community.
I am currently writing a script that would make holes (with rect. pattern) on the face that was previously selected by a user. I specified the `holeInput` and essentially my script does produce the holes (see picture).
However, the holes produced have this downside triangle tip that I would like to avoid (see them pointed out by red box). I want to have the flat bottom of the hole and it seems like I can achieve this with tipAngle property. However, when I set this property at either 0 deg or 180 deg it throws a system error.
Any ideas about what could help here? Thanks in advance!
Here is the code that throws this error
try:
holeInput = holes.createSimpleInput(adsk.core.ValueInput.createByString('0.7 cm'))
holeInput.setPositionByPoint(face_lst[0], face_lst[0].centroid)
holeInput.setDistanceExtent(adsk.core.ValueInput.createByString('0.7 cm'))
holeInput.participantBodies =
#holeInput.tipAngle('180 deg') #ERROR DOES NOT ALLOW ME TO SET IT TO 0 OR 180
# TODO: figure out the width of the body and set corresponding distance extent
hole = holes.add(holeInput)
