CFD Online Discussion Forums - [DesignModeler] Create Skin from Curves by a JScript

Hello,

I found this forum by searching a solution for a certain problem and I hope somebody here might help.

I want to create a geometry in the DesignModeler totaly by using a JScript. I already succeeded in creating most of the parts, but I got stuck by creating a Skin from some curves, which I defined.

The part where the curves and the skin shall be created looks like this:

Code:

var myCurve = ag.gui.CreateCurve();



// Read Curves from File

myCurve.FCurveDefType = 1;

    

myCurve.CoordinateFile = "curve_file.txt";

myCurve.Name = "my_curve";

myCurve.CurveRefresh = 1;



// ... and now create the skin ...

This part works fine. Now I'm trying to select the Curves and to create the skin. I managed to create a new skin and I can add the line bodys to it, but the creation fails with an error (it says, that the types are not valid).

Here is what I tried (Body 8 to 12 are the line bodys):

Code:

ag.b.Regen();

var mySkin = ag.b.Skin(agc.Add, agc.Yes, 0.0, 0.0);

mySkin.AddBaseObject(ag.agApplet.FeatureMgr.Body(8));

mySkin.AddBaseObject(ag.agApplet.FeatureMgr.Body(9));

mySkin.AddBaseObject(ag.agApplet.FeatureMgr.Body(10));

mySkin.AddBaseObject(ag.agApplet.FeatureMgr.Body(11));

mySkin.AddBaseObject(ag.agApplet.FeatureMgr.Body(12));

ag.b.Regen();

I guess, that I have to select the edges instead of the line bodys, but I don't know how I can do that. May be someone here nows a solution? It would be a great help ...

Thank you very much!

Best regards
