Hello everybody!<\/p>\n

I am generating multiple geometries with an own-written code. I am struggling to identify the commands to select faces of my geometries of which I know the coordinates (x, y, z).<\/p>\n

I’ll be more specific. In the attached picture is depicted a cube of dimensions L = 10;  W = 10; H = 20 [mm]: I want to select the face at the top of the structure (highlighted in orange) of which I know the coordinates, then use the NamedSelection.Create() command. One of my ideas was to create planes at those coordinates and then find the intersections with my geometry, but I couldn’t develop my code.<\/p>\n

I tried to use the split body tool but with no luck. Same with filter by bounding box (also described here \/forum\/forums\/topic\/spaceclaim-script-selection-by-filterbyboundingbox\/)<\/p>\n

I already made searches on the forum and the web but with poor results. Any kind of help is appreciated, thanks in advance \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
