Question

Extract more information from PVZ files

Dear Community

 

My goal is to streamline the process of creating AR experiences, ideally the users wouldn't need to open the Vuforia Studio Editor to create Step by Step instructions.

 

Is there a "best" way to extract all the information from the PVZ file using JS?

 

For example "step_acknowledge", or which parts are needed for each step, like a BOM of Parts the user needs to install for each step. This is visible in the animation track in creo Illustrate.

 

step_name and step_discription is available with parsedArg3

 

Thanks for your help!

 

Alex

I don't have access to the WebGL toolkit, is there no other way?

Hello @AlexK ,

I think the informaiton what you required could be found in the pvi file. I think we can parse that <figrue name >.pvi file/xml format without Creo Toolkit for pvz/ and check for some step related informaiton e.g. to create a list of parts to a step. I check that information in the past and believe that my findings were that this should  be possible via javascript also inside studio. So means we will extract the informaiton from the pvi file to a specific sequence. I think it will be better to extract that informaiton outside Studio and prepare with the correct/desired syntax then in additional .json file which could be then used during the session inside Studio
