[BUG] Missing concrete block in Idea Connection #50

Closed jorgebslu closed 4 years ago

jorgebslu commented 4 years ago

Hi,

When exporting the following base plate with pad footing to Idea Connection the ConcreteBlockData for the pad footing is missing:

The exported connection BasePlate-SF01-iom.zip in Idea Connection looks like:

Am I doing something wrong to export the footing to Idea Connection? BTW, is there any way to export the Grout filling you can see in the first screenshot?

And also, is it actually needed the Origin point of ConcreteBlockData since the Center point could be enough?

Best regards

Hi,

we are just finishing version 20.1 - it will be released in October 2020. If you want we can provide you beta version. Our API has the new feature - import CAD connection. There is the link

https://github.com/idea-statica/ccm-examples/tree/release-v20.1

It doesn't solve your issue but it contains the example how to define a baseplate and a concrete block - see the xml file

Yes indeed, I also used the ConcreteBlockproperty for AnchorGrid. BTW, are ConcreteBloc.Width and ConcreteBloc.Length needed? They are not shown in the viewer and without a local coordinate system it is not possible to know who is Width and who is Length.
