thread561-339207: Program for generating XYZ & radius co-ordinate data in UG Nx
I've been editing the Frankswinks code from the above post to create a journal to use sketch curves instead of sweep curves. I can't come up with a way to modify the following line of code to tag the sketch curves as he did the sweep curves.
ufs.Modl.AskSweepCurves(theSweep.Tag, nosectioncurves, sectioncurvetags, noprofilecurves, profilecurvetags)
Is this possible? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Frank, I don't claim to really know what I'm doing when writing code but I was able to modify your code to use sketch curves, but probably because the sketch doesn't follow a certain path, the points didn't come out in order. Or, my code was written incorrectly. I went back to your original code, using a sweep function, but I couldn't get the end points of a radius if it was the last element in the sweep or the starting point of the sweep. Either way, my goal is to create a lathe turn chart that populates a tabular note with the X, Z, and Radius values. Whether the use of sketch is best option, I'm not sure. I would also like the tabnote to be associative.
The fact that I am a self taught VB programmer with a CAM background, I just want to say thanks to all the experts out there that are willing to share their knowledge on these forums. I would be totally lost without you guys.
Thanks,
Ron
