SYSTEM ERROR ==> getAsCoordinateSystem()

[MichaelT_123]

Hi,

This "simplified" script results in a system error.

The code is:

"

transform_tmp = adsk.core.Matrix3D.create()

(returnValue, origin, xAxis, yAxis, zAxis) = transform_tmp.getAsCoordinateSystem()

"

The error is:

"

SystemError: <built-in function delete_Point3D> returned a result with an error set

"

Is there something wrong with mine code ... or in the system's core?

Regards

Unfortunately, this is a problem with the documentation.  The return type from getAsCoordinateSystem is 'void' (as is visible from the C++ tab of the documentation).  Void returns are never assigned to variables, so the sample code line should be:

(origin, xAxis, yAxis, zAxis) = matrix3D_var.getAsCoordinateSystem()

Your sample should run if you remove the 'returnValue' variable from the tuple you are assigning into.  We will update the documentation for this (and similar) case(s).

Thank you Mr. Kaplan,

... it works now ... like a spell of Wiedźmin of Oz !!!

PS. ... and there is some strange synergy here, ... your name means 'Priest'  in slavic languages ( Kapłan in polish language),  Wiedźmin word is based on Sanskrit word Veda which means knowledge (  wiedza in slavic languages ).

Just to let you know that I've fixed this in the help system and it will be corrected when the Fusion update goes live later this week.

Thanks.

Interesting.  My ancestry is (paternally) Polish.  My understanding is that at some point it was shortened from something like Kaplanowski.
