Controling Layers / bodys

[vegetagaru]

Hello i wonder if anyone could help me or point some directions...

i have this code:

 For Each bodyItem As Body In CType(child.Prototype, Part).Bodies
                    Dim tmpNXObject As NXObject = child.FindOccurrence(bodyItem)
                    If Not tmpNXObject Is Nothing Then
                        componentTagList.Add(CType(tmpNXObject, Body).Tag)
                    End If
                Next

credits: petulf

and i would like to exclude the bodys on layers 50,90,250-255

could anyone point me something ? itryed to record a jounral hiding the layers then adding it to the code but no result

NX8.5 - NX9 - NX 10 - NX11

Once you have a reference to the body, you can check the .Layer property and take action based on the layer number.

[petulf]

Use the layer property of the body object and check if the value is in a list of layers.

Dim exclusionLayers As New System.Collections.Generic.List(Of Integer)({50, 90, 250, 251, 252, 253, 254, 255})

For Each bodyItem As Body In CType(child.Prototype, Part).Bodies
  Dim tmpNXObject As NXObject = child.FindOccurrence(bodyItem)

  If Not tmpNXObject Is Nothing Then

    If Not exclusionLayers.Contains(bodyItem.Layer) Then
      componentTagList.Add(CType(tmpNXObject, Body).Tag)    
    End If

  End If
Next

Thanks both

i think it worked i will do some more tests if i ecounter problems i will reach u


NX8.5 - NX9 - NX 10 - NX11

yes its woking thank you

in some prts its not doing what its suposed to but i think its because he dont find the linked body prt example:

i have
TOP_PRT
-PRT1 (CONTENTS: SOLID BODY + LINKED garbadge_subprt SOLID BODY)
--garbadge_subprt(CONTENTS: SOLID BODY )
-PRT2 (CONTENTS: SOLID BODY + LINKED garbadge_subprt SOLID BODY)
--garbadge_subprt(CONTENTS: SOLID BODY )


when the code runs if im missing the garbadge_subprt its returning NXopen error. i will explore it and say something

NX8.5 - NX9 - NX 10 - NX11

petulf i had to comment a line from ur export code

tagsList.AddRange(GetBodyTagsInAsm(currentPart.ComponentAssembly.RootComponent))

it was in conflit with what im trying to do.

anyone knows if its possible or could point me something to export a parasolid with another WCS from another file?

example:
TOP_PRT
-PRT1 (CONTENTS: SOLID BODY + LINKED garbadge_subprt SOLID BODY)
--garbadge_subprt(CONTENTS: SOLID BODY )
-PRT2 (CONTENTS: SOLID BODY + LINKED garbadge_subprt SOLID BODY)
--garbadge_subprt(CONTENTS: SOLID BODY )

when i export it will export PRT1/prt2/garbage (separately) with WCS from TOP_PRT


NX8.5 - NX9 - NX 10 - NX11
