Thats the Problem, i mited with a subtraction, because the rest would be too complicated. I need this get done on a lot of surfaces for connecting parts on the side, so even if it works it wont help me in the end. WhatsApp wring with this node? Maybe i got a misuse bec i dont get how to use get Direktion. But thx al lot

@Pat Stanfordcan you help me please?

mir war es wichtig, Teile zu schaffen, wo man die marionetten einfach aneinander wired und die dann selbst ihre position finden. dazu fehlt mir momentan noch eine korrekte Umsetzung des "Get Orientation" das haut bei mri naemlich nicht hin. Gruß

da bin ich raus, vs und python scripten kann ich nicht

here with charts no ports wrapper (2).zip

Hi, here, a bug occured, i wrapped a part of my network to make it more readeable and transparent for me, and i made some pass nodes, like i did before, but the wrapped stuff has 0 input and 0 output port? can someone help pls? br KC no ports wrapper.zip

das geht ja nicht, weil ich dann die liste nicht aendern kann ohne den popup zu aendern, der popup MUSS selbst in die tabelle gucken. 🙂

ja genau das war auch so gedacht, weiss nur nicht wie das geht, ich bin ja ein marionetten nub

ein paar bugs hat es noch, muss guggn ob ich den nochmal zusammenbaue, sicherlich habe ich VIEL zu viele nodes und einiges SEHR umstaendlich berechnet. Ich kann also ueber die performance noch nichts aussagen.

ich habe selbst einfach das std popup benutzt. ich stelle nur gerade fest, das VW ab und zu abstuerzt. ggf. muss ich alles neu zusammenstopeseln und ein paar dinge, die ich oefter nehme wrappen, damit man durchsieht.

so habs fertig 🙂 bis auf ein paar bugs, laeuft es. Wenn ich das als wrapper einsetze und die Teile aneinander baue habe ich wohl das "problem" dass der popup fuer jedes eingefuegte Teil abgefragt wird, da muss ich noch mal drueber nachdenken. heute nachmittag schieb ich den file hoch ok? dann kansnte dir das angucken. besonders gut finde ich, dass wenn du das als wrapper einbaust, das naechste teil zum positionieren einfach mit dem knoten des 1. verbindest und dann bleibt das 2. Teil auch am 1. sitzen, wenn du das verschiebst oder modifizierst in laenge und gehrungswinkel. Wenn ich ein neues PRofil brauche, muss ich also nur die tabelle modifizieren und habe sofort das neue teil im popup verfuegbar.

so, nach einigem hin und her, hauts jetzt hin. Ich musste allerdings einmal "add 1" wegmachen. fehlt "nur noch der Popup" 🙂 Dabei bekomme ich Hilfe von einem anderen User.

hier ein marissa knoten, der vielleicht hilft get num rows.vwx

btw das worksheet braucht ein handle, hat man mir gesagt 😛

baem, except the angles its working very well. So if u have a clue, how to read out this angles i can proceed with it. +

Hi there, i am struggling here with some stuff i can solve. I have a marionette, making such beautiful parametrical steel parts with a miter on the top. The goal is to use the rectangle (its a 3 D poly) for connecting the next marionette. I think about reading out, where the center of the 3D-poly ist (thats easy and working) but i am not able to read out the angle of this "surface" given by my 3D-Poly. Then i maybe can name there variable to get a interface for the next marionette part and i only have to wire the ends (center + angles) for the insertion of the next marionette steel part so they allways fit together. for me its quite diffucult, because some nodes dont work on all type of objects. I tried it with: - "get matrix" but it seems only working for 2D objects - get angle - get direction i Simply need the angles of the poly and the center, but i dont get how to do it. This i have to do more then once, so i will apply some help-polys for connection additional steel parts on the sides of my steel part. br kc

bahnhof ^^

@m.graf you have a solution for this?

Hi, maybe i made this once before but my head is empty in that kind of "how to do". i made Metal part, which is fully parametrical and i like to use it as a wrapper in a complex marionette, where i am placing them parametrically. So i got my named input-parameters are in the OIP of the wrapper, but the Wrapper has no input interface for my parameters. So i need named passnodes, instead of int/string ans boolean inputs. But what happened to the rest? Should i delete the named inputnodes and replace them all with pass nodes? Then the input is empty? Or can i somehow make a temporarily parameters which are overwritten, as you plug in the wires into the wrapper? What if the data wired through the pass has diffe type? (tin, real, bool, string?) BR KC

if that works great plan, but how to get the next choice out the sectionmeasures and how it will read out the artikelnummer? The File i made is working now good but the selection is missing. I got a steel profile: - chamfered/rounded or not - hollow or not - with drillings/copunterdrillings - controllable side of counterdrillings - controllable stop and and measure of the drillings, - drilling diameters - miter on both edges - the piece is named with length measure in the name (name is in a databasefield) - has an article number - has material text - infotext for drillings, counterdrillings, miters automatically and addeable informationtext. - you can rotate the object Maybe you have some more ideas or destroy my plan while u think the stuff is too slow because my spaghetticode slows die program down. 🙂 I will now: apply texture -> into coating databasefield. I really need the popup, because THEN is can make ALL these metal parts in just 1 file and i can morph them with parameters. in the end i need some achorpoints for the next steel part at the top and in the middle, so i can build them together with another marionette to have real parametrical Shelf for Tego. what do u think? I think its worth the hours i worked (8 h so far) on, because later all my collegues cant pick a wrong steel/alu part if the popup works and they never have to layout them because all u can read out with stamps.

@Marissa Farrell @DomC @SimA Have you some idea, how i can solve this? My skills in coding/scripting is limited, so i wont make the change in the node by myself, if no one helps me. 🙂 Maybe u have a better way to get a popup out of a spreadsheet, this was my first thought, maybe its totally wrong. br KC

Now i proceed with the database stuff und now i THINK I HAVE to Edit the Node "Custom Popup" in such a way, that i have the: - "choice 1" made out of "Cell A2-A5" in my spreadsheet "Stammdaten Handelshof Materialauswahl" - "Choice 2" made out of the Cell in Column M (dimension) in my spreadsheet "Stammdaten Handelshof Rechteckrohr" where Column G (material type) has the same value als Coice 1. Is there any way to do this so or different? #DomC @Marionette.NodeDefinition class Params(metaclass = Marionette.OrderedClass): #APPEARANCE #Name this = Marionette.Node( "Custom Pulldown" ) this.SetDescription( 'A Dialog with 3 Popups') #Input Ports sDialog = Marionette.PortIn('Dialog Name') sTitle1 = Marionette.PortIn('Materialtyp:') lPopup1 = Marionette.PortIn([],'{Stammdaten Handelshof Materialauswahl->A2:A5}') sTitle2 = Marionette.PortIn('Querschnitt:') lPopup2 = Marionette.PortIn([],'choice2') sTitle3 = Marionette.PortIn('Title 3:') lPopup3 = Marionette.PortIn([],'choice3') iWidth = Marionette.PortIn(40) #OIP Controls text = Marionette.OIPControl( 'Text', Marionette.WidgetType.Text, '') text.SetDescription( 'Dialog user prompt string' ) #Output Ports sPopup1 = Marionette.PortOut() sPopup2 = Marionette.PortOut() sPopup3 = Marionette.PortOut() sPopup1.SetDescription( 'The Result of the Popups' ) #BEHAVIOR this.SetListAbsorb() def RunNode(self): #inputs DialogName = self.Params.sDialog.value[0] title1 = self.Params.sTitle1.value[0] title2 = self.Params.sTitle2.value[0] title3 = self.Params.sTitle3.value[0] pop1 = self.Params.lPopup1.value pop2 = self.Params.lPopup2.value pop3 = self.Params.lPopup3.value width = self.Params.iWidth.value[0] numPopups = 3 #script def Dialog_Handler(item, data): for i in range(len(pop1)): vs.AddChoice( self.dialog, 11, pop1[i], i+1 ) for i in range(len(pop2)): vs.AddChoice( self.dialog, 12, pop2[i], i+len(pop1)+1 ) for i in range(len(pop3)): vs.AddChoice( self.dialog, 13, pop3[i], i+len(pop2)+1 ) self.v1 = vs.GetItemText( self.dialog, 11 ) self.v2 = vs.GetItemText( self.dialog, 12 ) self.v3 = vs.GetItemText( self.dialog, 13 ) def CreateMyDialog(): self.dialog = vs.CreateLayout( DialogName, 0, 'OK', 'Abbrechen' ) dialog = self.dialog vs.CreateStaticText(dialog, 1, 'title1', width) vs.CreateStaticText(dialog, 2, 'title2', width) vs.CreateStaticText(dialog, 3, 'title3', width) vs.CreatePullDownMenu( dialog, 11, width ) vs.CreatePullDownMenu( dialog, 12, width ) vs.CreatePullDownMenu( dialog, 13, width ) vs.SetFirstLayoutItem( dialog, 1 ) vs.SetBelowItem( dialog, 1, 11, 0, 0 ) vs.SetBelowItem( dialog, 11, 2, 0, 0 ) vs.SetBelowItem( dialog, 2, 12, 0, 0 ) vs.SetBelowItem( dialog, 12, 3, 0, 0 ) vs.SetBelowItem( dialog, 3, 13, 0, 0 ) vs.RunLayoutDialog(dialog, Dialog_Handler ) CreateMyDialog() #outputs self.Params.sPopup1.value = self.v1 self.Params.sPopup2.value = self.v2 self.Params.sPopup3.value = self.v3 BR KC

Hi there, i got a manuel filled spreadsheet here and i like to use some formulas for multiple rows, so i thought there is some Excel-like function . how this is managed in the VW chart? br KC
