I seem to be getting an error when it's not expected. Steps to repeat:
Create a drawing object and successfully add it to creo.
Create a viewObject and succesfully get a list of views from the model
Attempt to create_gen_view using the view name acquired in step 2 but receive the following error:
"ERROR: View does not exist on model: BOTTOM"
It's an odd error considering I got the name of the view from the model itself so it seems the error message is inaccurate or there's some kind of bug causing it to fail. I'm open to the fact I'm missing something in my sample code as well.
function CreateDwgView (modelname) {
let drwMdlView = new creo.ViewObj();
let drwObj = new creo.DrawingObj();
let drwView = "*"
drwObj.template = "elo_sd_d.drw";
drwObj.new_window = true;
drwObj.point = {'x':10 , 'y':10};
drwObj.activate = true;
drwObj.model = "test.prt";
drwObj.drawing = "test.drw";
drwObj.template = "elo_sd_d.drw";
drwObj.scale = 1;
drwObj.display = true;
drwObj.model_view = drwView;
drwObj.new_window = true;
drwObj.sheet = 1;
drwObj.view = "Drawing_Right";
new Promise(function(resolve, reject){
resolve(modelname)
//Create the Drawing
return drwObj.create()
}).then(function (result){
//Populate the new model view
drwMdlView.file = drwObj.model;
drwMdlView.name = drwView;
//Get a list of views from this model
return drwMdlView.list()
}).then(function(result){
//'Use the first model view returned from the list
return result.viewlist[0];
}).then(function(result){
drwObj.set_cur_model(drwView, drwObj.model);
drwObj.model_view = result;
return drwObj.create_gen_view() //This function fails with "ERROR: View does not exist on model: BOTTOM"
}).catch((err) => {alert('ERROR: '+err)});
return true;
}
CreateDwgView("test.prt")
