Preview This functionality is provided as a preview of intended future API capabilities. You are encouraged to use it and report any problems or suggestions using the Fusion API and Scripts forum.

Because this is a preview of future functionality, there is the possibility that it will change, which will possibly break any existing programs that use this functionality. Because of that, you should never deliver any programs that use any preview capabilities. For a distributed program, you should wait until it has moved from preview to released state.

Defined in namespace "adsk::cam" and the header file is <Cam/ModifyUtility/AdditiveSetupUtility.h>

Description

Assigns an array of parts to the body preset operation corresponding to the chosen PrintSettingItem in the PrintSetting. If a part has been previously assigned to a different preset (i.e. the default preset), it will be removed from its previous owner to ensure a body can only be mapped to one preset. If the previous owner preset ends up being empty, it will be removed from the setup.
