Please tell me how to select the face of a part that is saved in a variable.
Selected face about saved to variable
object [] vFace = swEdge.GetTwoAdjacentFaces2 ();
Face2 swFace = (Face2) vFace [0];
How now to select this face to create a sketch on it?
Hello. Try:
Dim swEnt As SldWorks.Entity
Set swEnt = swFace
swEnt.Select4 (False, Nothing)
Thanks. One more question. Tell me how to select multiple items?
List<Edge> swEdge = new List<Edge>();
List<Entity> swEnt2 = new List<Entity>();
swModel = (ModelDoc2)swApp.ActiveDoc;
swAssy = (AssemblyDoc)swModel;
swSelMgr = swModel.SelectionManager;
nbrSelections = swSelMgr.GetSelectedObjectCount2(-1);
int i = 0;
for (i = 0; i <= nbrSelections-1; i++)
{
swEdge.Add(swSelMgr.GetSelectedObject6(1, -1));
}
for (i = 0; i <= swEdge.Count-1; i++)
{
swEnt2.Add((Entity)swEdge[i]);
swEnt2[i].Select4(false, null);
}
Selecting multiple items fails.
swEnt2[i].Select4(True, null);
First parameter should be True
But you also need to call ClearSelection2 before your loop to deselect existing element
For better performance look at: Select any SOLIDWORKS objects in a batch using API
swEnt2[i].Select4(True, null);
