Spaceclaim Parameters

[Fabian Scr]

Is it possible in SpaceClaim to use the property fields (or custom properties) for parameterization? For example, if the file name is '100', the length of the geometry becomes '100', and so on.

Yes I suppose you could, but it seems a little backwards because we usually create the model then save. But in theory you could use SpaceClaim python scripting to do something like this:

# Python Script, API Version = V23
import re

# File Called dummy_100_mm.scdoc

fileName = DocumentHelper.GetActiveDocument()
fileName = fileName.Path

q = re.search(‘_(.+?)_mm’, fileName)
q = q.group(1)
print(q)

You could then use the quantity q in your model.
