Package3d Object Preview

Derived from: EcadObject Object
Defined in namespace "adsk::electron" and the header file is <Electron/Packages3d/Package3d.h>

PreviewThis 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.

Description

3D model definition in a library; can be attached to footprints for 3D board visualization.

Methods

Name Description
classType

Static function that all classes support that returns the type of the class as a string. The returned string matches the string returned by the objectType property. For example if you have a reference to an object and you want to check if it's a SketchLine you can use myObject.objectType == fusion.SketchLine.classType().

Properties

Name Description
description Human-readable description of this 3D package.
headline First line of the description, used as a short title.
id Identifier of the object.
isValid Indicates if this object is still valid, i.e. hasn't been deleted or some other action done to invalidate the reference.
library Name of the library where this 3D package is defined.
libraryLocallyModified True if the source library has been locally modified.
libraryUrn Uniform Resource Name (URN) of the source library.
libraryVersion Version number of the source library.
locallyModified True if this 3D package has been locally modified.
name Assigned name of this 3D package.
objectType This property is supported by all objects in the API and returns a string that contains the full name (namespace::objecttype) describing the type of the object.

It's often useful to use this in combination with the classType method to see if an object is a certain type. For example: if obj.objectType == adsk.core.Point3D.classType():
urn Uniform Resource Name (URN) that uniquely identifies this 3D package.

Samples

Name Description
Electronics Bill of Materials Sample

Prints a bill of materials to the Text Commands window: lines that share the same value, footprint, MPN, and manufacturer are merged—Part lists all designators (sorted), Qty is the count. Indented Value, Footprint, MPN, and Manufacturer lines follow. Empty value, MPN, or manufacturer shows (missing). Omits parts without a package, without a linked 3D footprint name, or not populated for the default assembly variant.
