Insert a descriptive picture in a macro

Anersan

Hello,

I would like to know how could I insert a picture showing the parameters concerning my own macro

For exemple, if the macro draws a box, the user has to enter 3 parameters

When I execute the macro, it opens correctly, but there is no picture

 

For exemple, if you want to create an InfiniteBox, there is a picture showing you de dimensions you have to enter

You can even make the picture visible or invisible with the "Image" (in french version) button.
   

Does anyone know how to do this?

Regards!

Hi,

There is an example of macro inside there a script allows to add a picture in the macro. The macro is:

reateInitialNonMeshedCoilFor3DRadialMotor.PFM

It is available in:

C:\Program Files\Altair\2020\flux\Extensions\Macros\Macros_Flux3D_Physics\CreateInitialNonMeshedCoilFor3DRadialMotor.PFM

The part of the scrip is :

if isActif ==False:

 

INSTALL = os.environ["INSTALLFLUX"]+ os.path.sep + ".."

image_filename = INSTALL+os.path.sep+"Extensions"+os.path.sep+"Macros"+os.path.sep+"Macros_Flux3D_Physics"+os.path.sep+"CreateInitialNonMeshedCoilFor3DRadialMotor.PFM"+os.path.sep+ "CreateInitialNonMeshedCoilFor3DRadialMotor.jpg"

print image_filename

 image = imageio.ImageIO.read(io.File(image_filename))

frame = JFrame('DATA Description',

           defaultCloseOperation = JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE,

           size = (1290,870))

label = JLabel(ImageIcon(image))

label.setHorizontalAlignment(JLabel.RIGHT);

label.setVerticalAlignment(JLabel.BOTTOM);

frame.add(label)

frame.setAlwaysOnTop(True)

frame.visible = True

 

Best regards.

Hello,

It works fine.

It is not exactly like in the InfineBox example. The picture appears in a separate window. But it is actually still better like this

Thank you very much!!
