Mirror parts

[sergio72]

Hi all, i'm triying to retrieve models from an assembly from toolkit.
This assembly has some parts that had been build using mirror. My problem
is that i want to avoid these mirror parts but i dont know how i can
diferenciate between a genuine part from a mirror one. I tried
ProFeatureCopyinfoGet, but needs a feature and i only have solids. There is
any way to know if a part from an assembly is a mirror given his ProMdl
handle?

Thanks in advice.


P.D Im using toolkit for ProE 2001

Serbia,

Remember, a solid IS a feature of an assembly. So your Pro/TOOLKIT
function call order should be something like this:



1. Visit the assembly components with ProSolidFeatVisit(). Yes
you can pass an assembly to this function. Each assembled
part/subassembly is a feature of the top level assembly.

2. In the filter function make sure you are visiting components
only. Read the API Wizard under User's Guide->Assemblies->Visiting
Assembly Components

3. In the action function call ProFeatureCopyinfoGet(). The
feature parameter to the action function is actually a ProAsmcomp. Pass
this parameter to ProFeatureCopyinfoGet() and you should be able to find
out if the component is a feature.
