Einführung

Der Zweck dieser Seite ist es, ein minimales Beispiel für die Funktion Part Anhänge unter Verwendung von Scripted Objects in Python zu zeigen.

See full and complete minimal example below.

The following GIF demonstrates attaching our custom box to a cylinder, and automatically updating it's position when the cylinder's position changes.

NOTE: The box is our custom scripted object, and the cylinder is a regular FreeCAD object generated from the Part workbench.

Making Scripted Objects Attachable

Add Attach Extension

First, we need to add the Part::AttachExtensionPython extension to our Part::FeaturePython oject in the constructor, or __init__ method, of our custom scripted object.

class Box():
    """Custom Scripted Box Object"""

    def __init__(self, obj):
        self.Type = 'Box'

        obj.Proxy = self
        
        ... custom properties

        # Needed to make this object "attachable"
        obj.addExtension('Part::AttachExtensionPython', obj)

Without adding this code, we'll see the following warning dialog when attaching our custom scripted object to another object.

Update Position Based on Attached Object

Then, in the `execute` method of our custom scripted object, we need to call the `positionBySupport` on our `Part::FeaturePython` object.

class Box:
    
    ...

    def execute(self, obj):
        obj.positionBySupport()
        
        # Assign a Shape to obj
        obj.Shape = Part.makeBox(...)

Without calling positionBySupport, our custom scripted object won't update it's position when the position of the attached-to object changes.

import FreeCAD as App
import Part


class Box():
    """
    Simple Custom Box Object
    See Also:

    def __init__(self, obj):

        Arguments
        ---------
        - obj: an existing document object or an object created with FreeCAD.Document.addObject('Part::FeaturePython', '{name}').
        """

        self.Type = 'Box'

        obj.Proxy = self
        obj.addProperty('App::PropertyLength', 'Length',
                        'Dimensions', 'Box length').Length = 10.0
        obj.addProperty('App::PropertyLength', 'Width',
                        'Dimensions', 'Box width').Width = 10.0
        obj.addProperty('App::PropertyLength', 'Height',
                        'Dimensions', 'Box height').Height = 10.0

        # Needed to make this object "attachable",
        # or able to attach parameterically to other objects
        obj.addExtension('Part::AttachExtensionPython', obj)

    def execute(self, obj):
        """
        Called on document recompute
        """
        # Needed to update position when attached-to object changes position.
        # Reposition object based on Support, MapMode and MapPathParameter properties.
        # Returns True if attachment calculation was successful, False if object is not attached and Placement wasn't updated,
        obj.positionBySupport()

        obj.Shape = Part.makeBox(obj.Length, obj.Width, obj.Height)


def create_box(obj_name, document):
    """
    Create a Box.
    """
    obj = document.addObject('Part::FeaturePython', obj_name)
    Box(obj)
    obj.ViewObject.Proxy = 0  # Mandatory unless ViewProvider is coded
    return obj


document = App.ActiveDocument
if document is None:
    document = App.newDocument('Part Attachment Example')

box = create_box('CustomBox', document)
document.recompute()
