i would like to check an objects shape to see if one could make create an equivalent polyhedron.

Okay I can access an Objects Shape and this should have Faces, but how do I check what type of face it is? Planar, Bezier etc.

More importantly where is all this documented ?

OKay found a way to achieve the desired result without using minidom.

I am trying to prettify XML code in a GDML exporter see https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-us/thunderbird/addon/mailredirect/ The code looks like ( I have tried a number if ways of using mindom ) gdml_pretty = ET.tostring(gdml,encoding='utf8').decode('utf8') xmlstr = minidom.parseString(gdml_pretty)....

mmmH - I tried the file and like for you it appeared to be looping. The scad file produces a CSG file with basically a couple of OpenSCAD text commands. I have tried to isolate the problem by trying various cutdown files. Dealing with the OpenSCAD text command is a SLOW process. For each text comman...

Just checked the latest version of OpenSCAD is 2015.03 according to their website, so my vague memories are incorrect and should work just fine

Unless of course, somebody has been updating the FreeCAD OpenSCAD workbench and things have retrograded.

Do you have a link?

Solved : Same mistake as before Forgot to add <bases> definition for class further up the hierarchy.

Okay I tried changing to class MyG4TriangularFacet : public G4TriangularFacet { public: MyG4TriangularFacet(Base::Vector3d v0, Base::Vector3d v1, Base::Vector3d v2); // Virtual ~MyFC_2_G4TriangularFace(); private: }; // Constructor MyG4TriangularFacet::MyG4TriangularFacet(Base::Vector3d v0, Base::Ve...

Hi Werner Still having problems getting my head round Base::Vector My code has # add name of TessellateSolid tessellate = G4TessellatedSolid() # mesh.Topology[0] = points # mesh.Topology[1] = faces for fc_facet in mesh.Topology[1] : print(fc_facet) g4_facet = createFacet(mesh.Topology[0][fc_facet[0]...
