Joining Tabs/Tags on Frames

aaron_harris672

Hi,

Can anyone help me with trying to set up a feature script so that I can easily add in joining tab/tags to frames using either box section or angle. i have tried with the following code but keep getting errors.

FeatureScript 1640; // Specify the FeatureScript version

// Feature definition
annotation { "Feature Type Name": "Joining Tab" }
export const joiningTab = defineFeature(function(context is Context, id is Id, definition is map)
precondition
{
// Tab width as a length input
annotation { "Name": "Tab Width", "UIHint": "DISTANCE" }
definition.tabWidth is length;

    // Tab height as a length input
    annotation { "Name": "Tab Height", "UIHint": "DISTANCE" }
    definition.tabHeight is length;

    // Tab spacing as a length input
    annotation { "Name": "Tab Spacing", "UIHint": "DISTANCE" }
    definition.tabSpacing is length;

    // Joining part input (should be a body or face)
    annotation { "Name": "Joining Part" }
    definition.joiningPart is Query;
}
{
    // Fetch the selected edges for tab creation
    const edges = evaluateQuery(context, definition.edges);

    // Loop through the edges and create tabs
    for (var edge in edges)
    {
        // Extract the tangent line from the edge
        const edgeCurve = evEdgeTangentLine(context, { "edge": edge });
        const edgeLength = evLength(context, { "entities": edge });

        // Create tabs along the edge at intervals
        for (var pos = 0; pos < edgeLength; pos += definition.tabSpacing)
        {
            const tabOrigin = edgeCurve.origin + edgeCurve.direction * pos;

            // Define the tab plane for extrusion
            const tabPlane = plane(tabOrigin, edgeCurve.direction, vector(0, 0, 1));

            // Create the tab's sketch
            const tabSketch = planarSketch(context, id + "tabSketch" ~ pos, {
                "plane": tabPlane
            }, function(sketchContext) {
                // Draw a rectangle to represent the tab
                skRectangle(sketchContext, "tabRect", {
                    "corner1": vector(0, 0) - vector(definition.tabWidth / 2, 0),
                    "corner2": vector(0, definition.tabHeight) + vector(definition.tabWidth / 2, 0)
                });
            });

            // Extrude the tab from the sketch
            const tabExtrude = opExtrude(context, id + "tabExtrude" ~ pos, {
                "entities": qSketchRegion(id + "tabSketch" ~ pos),
                "direction": edgeCurve.direction,
                "operationType": NewBodyOperationType.ADD,
                "depth": definition.tabHeight
            });

            // Subtract the tab from the joining part
            opBoolean(context, id + "tabCutout" ~ pos, {
                "tools": qCreatedBy(tabExtrude, EntityType.BODY),
                "targets": definition.joiningPart,
                "operationType": BooleanOperationType.SUBTRACT
            });
        }
    }
}

);
