Hi All,

I am looking for CATIA API which can provide the point definition shown in the picture below:
BackshellConnectionPoint_dz396z.png


I saw few interfaces: CATIMeasurableInContext and CATIMeasurablePlane. From CATIMeasurableInContext, I could read the type and found that it is of type CATIMeasurablePlane.
But, I haven't seen methods which return the placement constraints: Contact, Coincidence and Orientation shown in the picture above from any of these interfaces.

Can someone help me with the correct API to get the definition and also the point which was generated for the given definition.

Thanks
Kiran

Hi.

Bakshell connection point interface is not exposed. However, there's a chance that values of interest are stored as attributes in which case you may try
Code:
CATIElecAttrAccess
or
Code:
CATISpecAttrAccess
(more general)
