So, I remember what the Hex guys say, "Just export the code you need to learn as basic, and glean all the knowledge".
So, I output this generic circle as a basic to learn the code that describes it.
A generic circle with a DIAMETER of 2.
CIR1 =GENERIC/CIRCLE,DEPENDENT,CARTESIAN,OUT,$
NOM/XYZ,<0,1,0>,$
MEAS/XYZ,<0,1,0>,$
NOM/IJK,<0,0,1>,$
MEAS/IJK,<0,0,1>,$
DIAMETER/2,2
This is the code it exports.
Set DmisCommand = DmisCommands.Add(GENERIC_CONSTRUCTION, True)
DmisCommand.Marked = True
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("0", THEO_X, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("1", THEO_Y, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("0", THEO_Z, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("0", THEO_X2, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("1", THEO_Y2, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("0", THEO_Z2, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("0", THEO_I, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("0", THEO_J, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("1", THEO_K, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("2", THEO_DIAM, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("0", MEAS_X, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("1", MEAS_Y, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("0", MEAS_Z, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("0", MEAS_X2, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("1", MEAS_Y2, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("0", MEAS_Z2, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("0", MEAS_I, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("0", MEAS_J, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("1", MEAS_K, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("2", MEAS_DIAM, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.PutText ("CIR1", ID, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.SetToggleString (4, GEN_FEAT_TYPE, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.SetToggleString (1, GEN_ALIGN_TYPE, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.SetToggleString (1, COORD_TYPE, 0)
retval = DmisCommand.SetToggleString (1, INOUT_TYPE, 0)
So, silly me, I think if I just import this code, it will work.
This is what I get.
CIR1 =GENERIC/CIRCLE,DEPENDENT,CARTESIAN,OUT,$
NOM/XYZ,<0,1,0>,$
MEAS/XYZ,<0,1,0>,$
NOM/IJK,<0,0,1>,$
MEAS/IJK,<0,0,1>,$
[SIZE=2][COLOR=#ff0000]RADIUS[/COLOR][/SIZE]/2,2
A generic circle with a RADIUS of 2.
i guess PCDMIS looks at the generic circle and finds the 'hardcoded' primary radio button value and exports it. i.e. RADIUS is the default selection that you manually change to DIAMETER.
I love workarounds.
