Adding texture by iterating through all faces in a part

j_j406j_j406 Member Posts: 6
Hi, I am working on a  feature script for surface texture generation and ran into an issue with iterating through all faces of a part.
It is a three step process
1. Split all faces along Z axis - works fine
2. Split all faces along X axis - works fine
3. Iterate through all faces and apply a random move using opMoveFace(...) - this does not work as expected. My current implementation does not iterate through all faces

 for (var aFace in qOwnedByBody(definition.partToCut, EntityType.FACE))
        {
            i=i+1;
            println(aFace);
            println("------------------------");
            
            
            /*opMoveFace(context, id + i+"moveFace", {
                    "moveFaces" : qOwnedByBody(definition.partToCut, EntityType.FACE),
                    "transform" : transform(vector(rnd2(), 0, 0) * millimeter)
            });*/

        }


Can you advice what the problem might be?

    In the for loop definition you need to evaluate the query. Then use aFace in “moveFaces”

    Hi Neil, thanks for the feedback. Would you be able to tweak the code I posted? That's my first feature script. Not quite sure what query evaluation is.

    I think I got it
     var allfaces = evaluateQuery(context, qOwnedByBody(definition.partToCut, EntityType.FACE));
            for (var aFace in allfaces)
    {
    .
    .
    .
    .
    }
