featurescript beams

Hello I have frame which I drew earlier and now want to adapt to some new measurements and a trim feature that used to work okay is now failing on me. Instead of keeping the larger part of the beam its result is the counterpart hidden inside the other beam used for trimming, as shown in the screenshots. I am using official…

This is mostly just recycled code from the beams feature. In our case, it's really nice to have the beams named accurately, including the length, which obviously changes with move faces or what have you. So the idea is that you put this feature after all of your manipulation to the beams, it remeasures the length, and sets…

Not sure if this is a bug in Beams FeatureScript. But it fails for merge sections unless properties are set. Intentional or bug?

I've been using the beam feature regularly and would really like the ability to have it set the component's part number as well as name. (To the exact same thing -- nothing fancy.) I know I can do it with a mix of variables and a Part Number FS, but I'm regularly working with 8+ beams per part studio, all of whose lengths…

It's been a while since I've used the beams feature script, the last time I did use the tool I recall that there was no "easy" way to create a cut list or automatically count the number of identical parts. I wanted to see if there has been a change, I searched the forums and did not see anything new. I have one part studio…

Hi Guys, Recently I started to experience problems with Beams FeatureScript. When I try to pull the manipulator arrow to reposition the beam it started to report error. Probably it started after the latest update FS but I'm not sure. FeatureScript notice does not report anything. It does not depend on profile. Can't find…

Hi, I have been working on some designs that use beams features to create a frame. We need to get total lengths of each of the profiles used in the design to order stock material. I have had to do this by manually inputting into the description property for each part, with the profile and length, and export out the full…

Hello everyone, I would like to share with you all some of the profiles from my copy of Beams 2.0 featurescript created by @NeilCooke which I have added many profiles and merged some other libraries into. https://cad.onshape.com/documents/a38ff6a561548498cb9d9e51/w/83da1faa1ca266e96418b80e/e/8a73854e0d3da96a42295ec4 It is…

I created a beam profile for 1-5/8 inch Unistrut. I'm trying to trim the butt joints but no matter which direction I choose for the vertex of the butt joint, it does not seem to trim the beams correctly. I tried using Boolean subtract, but that did not work either.…

I tend to use the Beam FeatureScript alot in my projects, and thanks to the new BOM update its way easier to indicate parts in drawings. So instead of having the parts being generated with the name "Part 1" etc. I want to have the name of the profile and the length in the name. I have done the profile name part sucessfully…

So after adding the new profile to the code, how do I use the feature in my documents, all that shows up it the original beam feature, the edited one only shows up in the document which I created it in.

Hello, i am using featurescript beams and created some profiles. I copied my personal version of Beams and profiles to my project. I erased featurescript beams from my project and replaced it with a newer version with only minor changes. Now the beam feature in the project is red. Featurescript error: Function…
