Use of PatchFeatureInput and Path

[Laurent_ESCALIER]

Hi !

For a macro script, I want to create patch surface based on several sketchArc and sketchFittedSplines.

But... 

PatchFeatureInput uses a Path object but I have error defining the Path.

Can you share examples of the good use of Path.create and Path.addCurves ?

Thanks,

Laurent

I just try to modified an existing sample of patch to use path object. Please take a look

app = adsk.core.Application.get()
ui = app.userInterface

# Create a document.
doc = app.documents.add(adsk.core.DocumentTypes.FusionDesignDocumentType)

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

# Get the root component of the active design.
rootComp = design.rootComponent

# Create sketch
sketchesObj = rootComp.sketches
sketch = sketchesObj.add(rootComp.xZConstructionPlane)
sketchCircles = sketch.sketchCurves.sketchCircles
centerPoint = adsk.core.Point3D.create(0, 0, 0)
sketchCircles.addByCenterRadius(centerPoint, 3.0)
sketchCircles.addByCenterRadius(centerPoint, 10.0)

# Get the profiles defined by the circles.
profile1 = sketch.profiles.item(0)
profile2 = sketch.profiles.item(1)

# Get the inner and outer profile
areaPropertiesOfProfile1 = profile1.areaProperties()
areaPropertiesOfProfile2 = profile2.areaProperties()
areaOfProfile1 = areaPropertiesOfProfile1.area
areaOfProfile2 = areaPropertiesOfProfile2.area

outerProfile = profile1
if areaOfProfile1 < areaOfProfile2:
outerProfile = profile2

# Create a extrusion based on the outer profile
extrudes = rootComp.features.extrudeFeatures
extrudeDistance = adsk.core.ValueInput.createByString("1 cm")
extrudeFeature = extrudes.addSimple(outerProfile, extrudeDistance, adsk.fusion.FeatureOperations.NewBodyFeatureOperation)

# Get BrepEdge from inner loop on the end face of the extrusion
extrudeEndFace = extrudeFeature.endFaces.item(0)
brepLoops = extrudeEndFace.loops
innerLoop = brepLoops.item(0)
if innerLoop.isOuter:
innerLoop = brepLoops.item(1)
brepEdges = innerLoop.edges
brepEdge = brepEdges.item(0)

path = adsk.fusion.Path.create(brepEdge, adsk.fusion.ChainedCurveOptions.connectedChainedCurves)

# Create the patch feature
patches = rootComp.features.patchFeatures
patchInput = patches.createInput(path, adsk.fusion.FeatureOperations.NewBodyFeatureOperation)

patches.add(patchInput)
