Re: Cannot create Reinforcement Drawing Dimensioning view

Drawing Dimensioning workbench is since long time superseeded by TechDraw. Hmm, so the Reinforcement Workbench makes use of the Drawing Dimensioning workbench when clickes on the Reinforcement Drawing Dimensioning button in the Reinforcement Workbench toolbar. So why does the Reinforcement Workbenc...

I cannot create a Reinforcement Drawing Dimensioning document. In the attached model I created a simple structure called "Structure" and a custom rebar called "Rebar". I then selected the Structure and Rebar and then clicked on the Reinforcement Drawing Dimensioning button in the...

Re: Makeblocks not working

Roy_043, That workaround did the trick. As you surmised, I did not understand that you wanted me to use the Formula Editor for setting the wall height property. I went back to my original model and used the formula editor to set the wall height while keeping the zero value for "Joint" and ...

Re: Makeblocks not working

You are not providing new information. Just compare Paullee's screenshot. Have you tried the proposed workaround? As Paullee suggested, I gave it a non-zero joint. Specifically, I set the block size to 7+5/8" high, 1' 3+5/8" long and a wall height of 4' 8" (56") with a joint of ...

Re: Makeblocks not working

You are not providing new information. Just compare Paullee's screenshot. Have you tried the proposed workaround? For both Ubuntu and Windows 10, I downloaded the model that I had posted to the topic and then I tried 56" for the wall height but the property editor promptly converted it to 4' 8...

Re: Makeblocks not working

I think that the error is deeper than just a rounding problem. I downloaded the above FCSTD file to my Ubuntu box and tried to make some blocks but I found a different error. It looks like there is an exception. I have attached the Combo View, Report View, and Python Console View ReportView.png Pyth...

Re: How Do I Access Dependency Info

Walpa,
There are plenty of examples for iterating over the objects in a document. What I cannot find is examples of how to determine the dependencies. That is, which objects are contained in a given object and what objects contain the current object.

How Do I Access Dependency Info

I would like to traverse the dependency graph that is shown in the treeview of the combo view. I'm interested in ARCH related objects. I know the information is there but how do I get to it? Is there a script that illustrates how to do it? I created a simple model with four ARCH objects and looked a...
