Hi,
Is it possible to directly select nodes with the geometry filters shown in the image attached via API? At the moment I'm selecting all the nodes and filtering them in the code but unfortunately when the model has too many nodes it becomes extremely slow.
Thanks
hi @a54249
you can select from nodes of panels and filter by coordinates on this more restricted list.
After that, yes, it is possible to do it by API.
Sub SelectNodesByCoordinatesRanges()
Dim RobApp As RobotApplication
Set RobApp = New RobotApplication
Dim NodCol As IRobotCollection, NodSel As RobotSelection
With RobApp.Project.Structure
Set NodCol = .Nodes.GetAll
Set NodSel = .Selections.Get(I_OT_NODE)
End With
Xmin = Cells(1, 1).Value2: Xmax = Cells(1, 2).Value2
Ymin = Cells(2, 1).Value2: Ymax = Cells(2, 2).Value2
Zmin = Cells(3, 1).Value2: Zmax = Cells(3, 2).Value2
For i = 1 To NodCol.Count
With NodCol.Get(i)
X = .X: Y = .Y: Z = .Z
If X > Xmin And X < Xmax Then
If Y > Ymin And Y < Ymax Then
If Z > Zmin And Z < Zmax Then
Txt = Txt & " " & .Number
End If
End If
End If
End With
Next
NodSel.FromText Txt
Set RobApp = Nothing
End Sub
Best Regards
