Pagy - Ideas on Outline of the Docs

Things which could be improved:

  • Move away from API docs and Extras "docs" as separate pages ----> makes things harder to find and needlessly complicated.
  • Improve "discoverability" problem. i.e. for example - to help readers answer the question: "which extras do I need, and why?" I feel I can improve upon this currently.

The rest:

  • The rest of the docs seem pretty good. We have config options for advanced use cases.

Tekla API: How to get objects that are currently selected.




In previous posts I have told you how to:

  • programatically select objects in Tekla. i.e. you have a set of parts in memory, and you want them selected.

Tekla API - How to highlight model objects

We want to:

  • select an object,
  • and we need the user to understand that it has been selected.

This is done through: (i) highlighting it, and (ii) via a display prompt.

Don Norman elaborates on the need to alert users

Demonstrates how the ByCoordinateSystems method works using the Tekla Open API

Please review the MatrixFactory.ByCoordinateSystems Method in order to get the most out of this post. Particularly:

Returns a coordinate transformation matrix defined by two coordinate systems. With the returned matrix points can be transformed from the first coordinate system to the second coordinate system. The ByCoordinateSystems method is meant for transforming points between coordinate systems asked in the same work plane.

How to programmatically filter parts by part position using the Tekla "Open" API

Here is the problem: we want to filter all parts which have the part position (or "part mark") of "p/2".

How can we do this programmatically?

Check out this code snippet - it assumes you have set up your references and are ready to go!

this.model = new Model();
if (model.GetConnectionStatus())
