Hi,

I am quite new to spaceclaim and spaceclaim scripting. I am trying to build a parametrized script to generate a geometry, which i think will be valuable considering the number of very similar models i build.

However, I am having a hard time getting around selection the variables in my model (curves, points, surfaces ...) without having to use something like
index = [GetRootPart().Curves[i].GetName() for i in range(len(GetRootPart().Curves))].index(name) and then GetRootPart().Curves[index].GetChildren[ICurvePoint]()[0]....

Is there no direct way for me to assign a named curve for example to a parameter?

Hi Hartmann, 

You can try creating a named selection and then use the below command to set the selection.
Curve is selected and added as a named selection Group 1.

curve=Selection.CreateByGroups("Group1") 

Please refer to this course on Scripting in Ansys Discovery where is covers various selection. Ansys Discovery Scripting - Access Objects | Ansys Courses

Thanks and Regards
