Robot Python - Structural Units

[basava.guru]

Hi

I want to set units for moment. But I could not set moment unit as kN*m

Robotapp = RobotApplicationClass()
Project = Robotapp.Project
Preferences = Project.Preferences
Structure = Project.Structure
Labels = Structure.Labels
Units = Preferences.Units

Project.Open("C:\Temp\\Structure01.rtd") # empty 3d robot model

# Set units for force, moment and stresses
RU = Preferences.Units.Get(IRobotUnitType.I_UT_FORCE)
RU.E = False
RU.Name = "kN"
RU.Precision = 2
Preferences.Units.Set(IRobotUnitType.I_UT_FORCE, RU)

RUCD = Preferences.Units.Get(IRobotUnitType.I_UT_MOMENT)
print(RUCD.Name)
print(RUCD.E)xz  
RUCD.Name = "kN"
RUCD.Precision = 2
Preferences.Units.Set(IRobotUnitType.I_UT_MOMENT, RUCD)
RUCD.Name2 = "m"
Preferences.Units.Set(IRobotUnitType.I_UT_MOMENT, RUCD)

hi @basava.guru 

try this

RUCD = RobotUnitComplexData(Preferences.Units.Get(IRobotUnitType.I_UT_MOMENT))
RUCD.E = False
RUCD.Name = "kN"
RUCD.Name2 = "m"
RUCD.Precision = 2
Preferences.Units.Set(IRobotUnitType.I_UT_MOMENT, RobotUnitData(RUCD))

Best regards
