Hi, all. I recently began to learn the feature script. And I have such a question. Is it possible to get access to api methods in a feature script?

Is it possible to have a slider in a FS UI? Something similar to the Alpha slider in the material appearance UI, where the user can either drag the slider to choose a value or enter a number.

Hello all, I have been working on this Four Bar Linkage Generator FS for some time now. It creates the sketch lines for each link and plots the displacement curve for a specified point. All that is needed is a mate connector for the origin. Give it a try and reply with whatever cool linkages you come up with!…

In featurescape I am trying to add a fillet on an edge between a rocket in and body (loft and extrude). I've manually put in in the fillet, but I would like to do it in featurescript ("TODO" in the feature script). I need form a query to find the edge. I've tried a bunch of things, but no avail.

How to use the Beam Profile Generator to add a new profile to the look Up Table in the Beam Profile tab?

Hey! I'm starting with feature script and work on a small script that simply needs a thoughhole. I ask the user for a point (around which I draw a circle) and a face to which the hole is going to. This part of the script looks like this: annotation { "Name" : "Vertex for center", "Filter" : EntityType.VERTEX,…

The below seems inefficient. function CurveIntersectPlane(context is Context, id is Id, curve is Path, plane is Plane){ var ppPlane = opPlane(context, id, { "plane" : plane, }); var r = evDistance(context, { "side0" : ppPlane, "side1" : qUnion(curve.edges) }).sides[0].point; deleteBodies(context, id + "delete", ppPlane);…

i'm making a script that genrates some holes automatically.. I'll need to check if the polygon i'm extruding is in free space or on a surface? is that possible and how?

I would like to create multiple polygons with a for loop depending on some info from the user, right now i just create one at a time because i cant iterate an id name? Now i go like: skRegularPolygon(sketch, "polygon2", { "center" : pointArray[2], "firstVertex" : vector(pointArray[2][0]+(4)*millimeter,…

I got two lines defined by the user, and i want to return the point where they meet... var buttomLine = evLine(context, { "edge" : definition.buttomSide }); var leftLine = evLine(context, { "edge" : definition.leftSide }); i tried using their origin, but they dont have a cummon coordinate. How can i find the meeting point…
