Importing frame profiles

graham_lock

Hi,

I want to draw a frame in FS using a profile from a library.

I have a Frames Profiles library from which I've imported the relevant profile into my feature:

PROFILE::import(path : "f291b1eeec6c54398a176be9/f64054ef666d4cf2737b88c5/356fb47928ccd52d07b1cf3e", version : "d6585a638c0d2d07f1a1c625");

I then build the profile context and merge into the current context (not sure if this is required?):

// Build a profile in a separate context
var contexWithProfile is Context = PROFILE::build();
opMergeContexts(context, id + "addProfile", {
"contextFrom" : contexWithProfile
});

I then have the following taken from Part Studio code view:

frame(context, id + "frame1", {
"profileSketch" : { "buildFunction" : df291b1eeec6c54398a176be9::vf64054ef666d4cf2737b88c5::e356fb47928ccd52d07b1cf3e::md6585a638c0d2d07f1a1c625::build,
"configuration" : {},
"partQuery" : qUnion([SbrDYwOkrUaWCG_query]) } as PartStudioData,
"selections" : qUnion([nDdJjqMVnfidOd_query]),
"lockProfile" : false,
"profileLockFaces" : qUnion([]),
"mergeTangentSegments" : true,
"angle" : { 'value' : try(-2 * degree), 'expression' : "-2 deg" }.value,
"mirrorProfile" : false,
"angleReference" : qUnion([]),
"defaultCornerType" : FrameCornerType.MITER,
"defaultButtFlip" : false,
"cornerOverrides" : [],
"trim" : false,
"trimPlanes" : qUnion([]),
"trimBodies" : qUnion([]),
"index" : { 'value' : try(7), 'expression' : "7" }.value
});

My question relates to the

profileSketch and partQuery parameters - how should that query be created?

Any help appreciated.

Thank you.

As an aside I have a working solution where the frame profile is manually selected via a user input field, which for my use case is probably fine.

annotation {
"Library Definition" : "65dcc2a02c4ff1c239467ec9", // This is the id of the Onshape Frame Profile Library definition, including this displays the frame profile tab in the Part Studio selector dialog box
"Name" : "Sketch profile",
"Filter" : PartStudioItemType.SKETCH,
"MaxNumberOfPicks" : 1,
"UIHint" : UIHint.REMEMBER_PREVIOUS_VALUE
}
definition.frameProfile is PartStudioData;

frame(context, id + "frame1", {
"profileSketch" : definition.frameProfile,
"selections" : qUnion([splinePath]),
"lockProfile" : false,
"profileLockFaces" : qUnion([]),
"mergeTangentSegments" : true,
"angle" : definition.profileAngle,
"mirrorProfile" : false,
"angleReference" : qRightPlane(EntityType.FACE),
"defaultCornerType" : FrameCornerType.MITER,
"defaultButtFlip" : false,
"cornerOverrides" : [],
"trim" : true,
"trimPlanes" : qUnion([qNthElement(definition.formerFaces, 0)]),
"trimBodies" : qUnion([]),
"index" : { 'value' : try(1), 'expression' : "7" }.value // the connection point index
});
