Macro Scripts in Polyworks

Post by frassolutions »

Disclaimer: I am not sure where to post this, to be honest. This is a bit of advertisement about what we do, but at the same time there is a lot of information to learn for free.

If you want to learn how to use the macro script editor, where to start, or read examples of what can be done with it, this is worth reading.

P.S. Feedback is welcome. I am not sure if I have listed all the free learning resources. If you are aware of something not listed, please share.

Thanks for the post, I read your whole tutorial. Question, I once saw a macro that would let you select all the reversed surfaces on your CAD model as long as they were connected, and correct them. PW dosen't see them as bad so the old CTRL Q won't fix them. Picking them one by one is time consuming.

Any help is appriciated

I never had that problem, but I would think that if it didn't detect properly, it is because it didn't properly detect the surfaces stiched together or there could be an intersection that cause the software to think that a surface is stiched to 2 surfaces of opposite direction,and Polyworks doesn't know what to do with it.

The default values for this detection may be tigher than your CAD program. You should try to play with these parameters:
