Catia EKL Create Point

[NaWin55]

Hello all

i am trying to create a point using EKL method but i am getting this error

i have created a point also from formulas tab

i tried the following code from catiawidgets.net website

// Construct a Point by coordinates
Let ioPoint ( Point )
ioPoint = point( 0mm , 10mm , 20mm )

// Equate the Spec Object to the Point in Memory
`Part1/Geometrical Set.1/Point.1` = ioPoint

how do i create point or any other feature using EKL

Thanks

Use a rule instead.

your part name is EKL not Part1

How to create another point:

EKL need several things to create a point:

we need the point definition as (X,Y,Z) or any other definition (point on curve with ratio...)... (here we pass the definition to a point object)

Let ioPoint ( Point )
ioPoint = point( 0mm , 10mm , 20mm )

we also need a geometric element to represent this definition, in the sample by Marc the geometry already exists as point.1 in geoset

Then finally we pass the definition to the geometry

`Part1/Geometrical Set.1/Point.1` = ioPoint

so if you want to create another point you need to create a new geometry using the new (type, name, destination) function:

let myGeoSet (openBodyFeature)
myGeoSet = `Part1/Geometrical Set.1`

let newPT (point)
newPT = new("Point", "Point.2", myGeoSet )

this will create a isolate point (with no definition ) in geoset Geometrical Set.1

Then you pass a definition

newPT = point(1mm,2mm,3mm)

then you do an update

newPT .Update()

Interesting Eric!
However: in CATIA V5R32 my KWA reaction cannot recognize the "NEW" function...

Could I suggest you try a dedicated EKL community to get some help:
