Navigation style

[Guest]

Hi,

Is there any possibility to change navigation style(inventor/CAD) from python console, instead of right click menu? or to bind a keyboard shortcut to it

thnx

Currently, this is not possible. With the latest revision I have implemented it to allow it from python. The methods are:

Code: Select all

view=Gui.ActiveDocument.ActiveView
view.listNavigationTypes() -> all possible styles (at the moment two)
view.getNavigationType() -> current style
view.setNavigationType(string) -> set style name as string in argument

is not working. none of these api..

Code: Select all

>>> view=Gui.ActiveDocument.ActiveView
>>> view.listNavigationTypes()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: listNavigationTypes
>>> view.listNavigationTypes()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: listNavigationTypes
>>> view.getNavigationType()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: getNavigationType
>>> view.setNavigationType(string)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: setNavigationType

You have to wait for the next release of our 0.12 unstable version.

But what you can already do is writing the according value to the preferences in python which sets the style for all 3d views.

Code: Select all

p=App.ParamGet("User parameter:BaseApp/Preferences/View")
p.SetString("NavigationStyle","Gui::InventorNavigationStyle")
p.SetString("NavigationStyle","Gui::CADNavigationStyle")
