How to set my X,Y,Z coordinates as Tool-Orientation-Origin over the API ?

[maurizio_manzi]

Hello,

How can I change the Origin-mode to "selected point" and how can I select my X,Y,Z coordinates as Tool Orientation Origin, over the API ?

Best regards

Maurizio

Hi @maurizio_manzi .

I don't think it can be set with XYZ coordinate values. It is the same as when you operate manually.
I made a sample that switches to "selected point".
Instead of the origin of the coordinate values, you can assume that a sketch point has been pre-created to be the origin.

・・・

        # get operation
        ope: cam.Operation = setup.operations[0]

        # tool orientation On
        prm: cam.ParameterValue = ope.parameters.itemByName('overrideToolView')
        if not prm: return

        if not prm.value.value:
             prm.value.value = True

        # change mode - "selected point"
        prm = ope.parameters.itemByName('view_origin_mode')
        if not prm: return

        if prm.value.value != 'point':
             prm.value.value = 'point'

        # get new origin point
        rootOcc: fusion.Occurrence = camObj.designRootOccurrence
        rootComp: fusion.Component = rootOcc.component
        targetPoint: fusion.SketchPoint = rootComp.sketches[-1].sketchPoints[-1]

        # set new origin
        prm = ope.parameters.itemByName('view_origin_point')
        if not prm: return

        prm.value.value = [targetPoint]
