excellent

[better319]

excellent job, i am not good at c#,your work hlep me. i need an example to create plate by position sothat i can conbine cad with tekla to create different sharp.

[better319]

in addition,for others, pip install -r requirements.txt

it's better to intall other deplay.

don't use jupyternotebook

Thanks! About the example, yes sure I can do it.

`import sys from pytekla import wrap

model = wrap("Model.Model")

if not model.get_connection_status(): print("Cannot connect with Tekla model") sys.exit()

material = wrap("Model.Material") material.material_string = "Q235B"

BentPlate_profile = wrap("Model.Profile") BentPlate_profile.profile_string = "PL10"

BentPlate_position = wrap("Model.Position") BentPlate_position.rotation_offset = 90 BentPlate_position.depth = wrap("Model.Position.DepthEnum").BEHIND

BentPlate = wrap("Model.BentPlate") BentPlate.start_point = wrap("Geometry3d.Point", 0.0, 0.0, 0.0) BentPlate.add_point = wrap("Geometry3d.Point", 10.0, 0.0, 0.0) ############error?? BentPlate.end_point = wrap("Geometry3d.Point", 0, 30.0, 0.0) BentPlate.name = "PYTEKLA BentPlate" BentPlate._class = "42" # Cannot use "class" in lowercase BentPlate.profile = BentPlate_profile BentPlate.material = material BentPlate.position = BentPlate_position BentPlate.insert()

model.commit_changes("BentPlate creation") `

but it's not work..

@better319 Give me couple a days to create a full example. In the meantime, I'm seeing some errors when you try to set the geometry in the BentPlate.

To set the geometry of the BentPlate you need to use the Geometry Property.

To do that you need to create a ConnectiveGeometry first. This class allows to pass to the constructor a Contour.

So, the code should look like this:

# Defining the contour
contour = wrap("Model.Contour")

# Supposing you have a list of points [(x1, y1, z1).....]
for p in points:
    geometry_point = wrap("Geometry3d.Point", *p)
    contour_point = wrap("Model.ContourPoint")
    contour_point.set_point(geometry_point)
    contour.add_contour_point(contour_point)

geometry = wrap("Model.ConnectiveGeometry", contour)

bent_plate = wrap("Model.BentPlate")
bent_plate.geometry = geometry

    contour.add_contour_point(contour_point)

@better319 I think you are missing a step, depending on how you want to create the bent plate. This might be useful for you:

https://github.com/TrimbleSolutionsCorporation/TSOpenAPIExamples/blob/169a670a567feeba2abdb11773f95997a32ab876/Model/Applications/BentPlateExample/BentPlateSampleCreation/Form1.cs#L240

HERE IS THE ERROR

BentPlate = wrap("Model.BentPlate") ↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓ BentPlate = wrap("Model.ContourPlate")
