Hello, I do need extract types of features used for 2d/3d dimensions. As per program example below:
{DIM DIST8B= 3D DISTANCE FROM
PLANE PLN1 TO
CYLINDER CYL4,SHORTEST=OFF,NO_RADIUS UNITS=MM,$
GRAPH=OFF TEXT=OFF MULT=10.00 OUTPUT=BOTH
AX NOMINAL +TOL -TOL MEAS MAX MIN DEV OUTTOL
M 1.433*1 0.55*1 0.2*1 1.433 1.433 1.433 0.000 0.000 --#-------
FCFPROF3 =SURFACE PROFILE : PLN1}
Here is distance between PLANE and CYLINDER. Any ideas how to extract types of features?
P.S. I do have code which working without type of features, problem is that execution of script doing a lot of scan and it taking far too long. My goal is to execute code only if code is relevant with type of feature.
My data structure is very simple, it contains 3 columns.
1-st column contains ID of constructed SET features (SCN1, SCN2 ....) which is used for profile outputs
2-nd contains ID's of points which was used to create SET features, planes, lines, and circles
3-rd contains tolerances of TP and profile.
Basically in first step, script looking in the CMM program for TP output and populating REF_ID to excel 2-nd column and tolerance to excel 3-rd column. In second step script looking in the CMM program for constructed set features then to excel 1-st column adding SET ID (SCN1, SCN2 ....) to 2-nd column populating ID's of all points used to create SCN and in 3-rd column populating tolerance of profile. In third step script looking in the CMM program for constructed lines, planes and circles then by using constructed feature REF_ID in excel 2-nd column looking for matching feature ID, when feature have been found then script copying profile tolerance of SCN feature and populating to third column and ID to 2-nd column.
2-nd column I do use for calculation of tolerances of basic dimensions.
