Need a script changes body size & constraint

Need a script changes body size & constraint

Need a script changes body size & constraint

(OP)
Hi every one,
Can anyone help please,
I have a body (3 parts) and I want to write a script
which can change part sizes and constraint (angles between parts).
Thank u

RE: Need a script changes body size & constraint

what is the goal? to make changes in hundreds of files? day by day use? for a single part you can do it more quicker without scripting.

RE: Need a script changes body size & constraint

You have to understand when scripting is required and when not. The wing can be simply controlled by parameters.

Thank you JeniaL,
I know it's possible to change the parameters.
But, as I have to conduct tests on many configurations, I think that a macro where
you can change your parameters, will be much better than changing it (parameters) directly .


RE: Need a script changes body size & constraint

Ferdo is right. VB/forms is the way to go. Post at least part of a script.

RE: Need a script changes body size & constraint

Jenial had a good point and in your case I would go for design table for the following reasons:

That would be easy to setup (much easier than a script)
easy to switch from one config to another
easy to create new config


check online doc about design table
