For (var i = .. Sketch and Plane and Circular pattern

FdaFda Member Posts: 42 ✭✭
How could you create a with a "for (var i = ...." a Sketch in each plane.





  And how Extrude each Sketch.

           var sketch2 = newSketch(context, id + "sketch2", {
           "sketchPlane" : qCreatedBy(makeId("Top"), EntityType.FACE)
           });


           for (var i = 0; i < 5; i += 1)
           {
           var miPlane is string = "plane" ~ i;


           var Circle is string = "Circle" ~ i;
           
           skCircle(sketch2, miPlane, {
           "center" : vector(i, 0) * inch,
           "radius" : 1 * inch
           });

           opPlane(context, id + miPlane, {
           "plane" : plane(vector(0, 0, i) * inch, vector(0, 0, 1)),
           "width" : 6 * inch,
           "height" : 6 * inch
           });


           }

           // Create sketch entities here
           skSolve(sketch2);

    Making one extrude then using opPattern would be more efficient.

    Please could you give a complete example with a code, perhaps more users will help you with the operation of "opPattern".

    opPattern documentation:
    https://cad.onshape.com/FsDoc/library.html#opPattern-Context-Id-map

    Just typing this up directly on the forum, so there may be some slight typos, but the general idea is:

    const lineToRotateAround = line(WORLD_ORIGIN, Z_DIRECTION);
    const angleIncrement = (360 * degree) / definition.count;
    
    var transforms = [];
    var instanceNames = [];
    for (var i = 1; i < definition.count; i += 1) // Iterate from 1 -> (definition.count - 1) because we have already created the base (0) instance
    {
        const currAngle = i * angleIncrement;
        const currTransform = rotationAround(lineToRotateAround, i * angleIncrement);
        // Append the currTransform to the transforms list
        transforms = append(transforms, currTransform);
        // instance names don't matter, they just need to be unique strings
        instanceNames = append(instanceNames, toString(i));
    }
    
    const patternId = id + "pattern";
    opPattern(context, patternId, {
        "entities" : qCreatedBy(originExtrudeId, EntityType.BODY),
        "transforms" : transforms,
        "instanceNames" : instanceNames
    });
    
    const booleanId = id + "boolean"; 
    opBoolean(context, booleanId, {
        "tools" : qUnion([qCreatedBy(originalExtrudeId, EntityType.BODY), qCreatedBy(patternId, EntityType.BODY)]),
        "operationType" : BooleanOperationType.UNION
    });

    Hope this helps.  Feel free to comment back with questions.

    You should use var <b>originExtrudeId</b> = id + "extrude1";
    where you had var originExtrudeId = qCreatedBy(id + "extrude1", EntityType.FACE);// originExtrudeId ???????

    and leave the rest of the code the same.

    @fermin_fermin_1

    The reason it is saying "variable originalExtrudeId not found" is because you are trying to use the variable "originalExtrudeId", and earlier you declared it as "var originExtrudeId = ...".  These two names aren't the same.

    Otherwise, @MBartlett21 is correct:
    const originalExtrudeId = id + "extrude";
    opExtrude(context, originalExtrudeId, {
        ...
    });
    
    ...
    
    const patternId = id + "pattern";
    opPattern(context, patternId, {
        "entities" : qCreatedBy(originalExtrudeId, EntityType.BODY)
    });

    @Jake_Rosenfeld
    That is exactly what I didn't notice.
    I thought that his feature was failing because it would have been qCreatedBy(qCreatedBy(id + "extrude", EntityType.FACE), EntityType.BODY)
