Re: Anyone already wrote a feature script for "slotted bending" (sheet metal)?
@lana Great feedback, much appreciated, I will try to implement your suggestions with regards to robustness soon. I tried finding the body via one of the selected centerlines, e.g. with qOwnerBody as you suggested, but unfortunately I didn't manage to restructure the code for finding the flatFaces without having access to… -
Re: "Retrieve" trailing edge resulting from EDGE extrusion
sorry kevin but failing to get the "opFillSurface" command to work all night. and I was ashamed to ask ...;) i slept all night and i just did: <div> var sketch2 = newSketchOnPlane(context, id + "sketch2", { "sketchPlane" : sketchPlane }); <div> skLineSegment(sketch2, "line0", {</div><div> "start" : vector(0 * millimeter,… -
Query a face created by opExtrude
I'm new to featurescript and I'm making a feature that creates standard metal extrusions. Which should look like this as a final product: I want to query a face which is created from a sketch by opExtrude: The sketch is built from 3 rectangles and 4 elliptical arcs which connect their ends: I want to create rounded-corner… -
Best way to convert a mesh to a solid
What are the best/quickest/easiest ways to convert a mesh to a solid. I know you can't directly convert it in Onshape. But is there a better way other than tracing the mesh with sketches, then extrude each part? I wish you could just boolean intersect with a giant cube. For what I need, I just need a dumb solid, even if it… -
FS working in file with featurestudio but not when added to tool bar?
Hi All, I am wondering if anyone has experience trouble shooting this: I have a sprocket feature script that functions perfectly in the main file, but fails on a specific user input combination once I have added it to my tool bar in a different document. In the screen shot below the lefthand view is a close up of my… -
Mirror Problem
I am a complete beginner and I have hit a brick wall. For a very simple woodwork project I have created a rail 25 x 40 x 400 mm. I have created a tenon on one end using "extrude - remove". I now want that same tenon on the other end. I have exhausted my free goes on Chat GPT and I think I have tried everything! In the… -
Am I just an retard? or is feature script impossible..
So what I have been attempting to do, for the 10th time now... Is create a slot (as shown in the top left corner of the sketch) on each selected point. This is still my first "from scratch" feature script. but I can never get past the first step... creating a sketch on a plane... I've learned a dozen other languages… -
Re: Offset Issue
@eric_borden595, also be aware that there is a limit to how far you can offset to the inside of a curve or vertex. I don't know if this is related to the issue you encountered but the wheels may fall-off-the-bus when the offset goes beyond any local center of curvature. And you are on the right track with reducing the… -
trouble using opSplitPart() with multiple faces in a single body
I am practicing my surfacing and once I got to a useful base object I wanted to add some more solid-like features to it. I'm working on a custom feature to make this easier. I hoped to make the workflow be kind of like a wrap, but without warping and applicable to 'any' surface, not just cylinders and cones as I believe… -
Re: Trouble with successive opBoolean calls
Two problems - terminalFace needs to be bigger than the sketches you are extruding - your selection is only half the size so it "falls off the end", and the extrude direction is wrong.
