How does one get the IpfcTransform3D for a part in an assy

The basic program loops though the assy and I'd like to get the  property Position.

I am try to "hack" the vbapi example ' pfcAssembliesExamples' to no avail

 

Can any help? Thanks

Not a VB guy myself... but I think it is possible... you might look at the CREOSON source to see if there are any hints for how to do this with the VB-API.

 

If all else fails, you could connect to CREOSON via VB to get the data... look at  bom : get_paths.... then file : get_transform JSON requests under the CREOSON functions for some examples of what is being returned.

 

Hope that helps at least narrow down the direction with VB...

Thanks for the tips. At this moment in time it's not an option but will have a look at it for sure

I am simply looking for the few lines of appropriate/correct code to get the IpfcTransform3D and use the properties of the object. I'd like to transform the (part) inertia matrix (already obtained) into the default co-ordinate system.

 

Thanks
