List selected parts in assembly? #98

Closed stekicar closed 1 year ago

stekicar commented 1 year ago

Is it possible to get a list of selected components (parts & assemblies) in assembly?

thackb commented 1 year ago

Yes, Look at the bom:get_paths function http://www.creoson.com/functions.html

I am looking for list of SELECTED components in assembly, not a list of all components in assembly.

If you asking to get the components you have selected by clicking using a mouse, the answer is NO, not possible.

If you asking to get a subset of the existing components. I recommend you add a parameter to each of those you want and then use creoson to get a list of parts and their parameters and then filter the full list by the items with the parameter.

Hope that helps.

We can get list of selected dims and features but not components. It would have been nice, though ... I can select each component's feature and get components but that will not work if I select sub-assemblies.
