Requesting for an example file/model that uses simlab.getProperty

Hello,

I am using the Simlab python library for some automation. I would like to use the simlab.getProperty function from the library but I do not understand the syntax completely. Do you have an example file or additional details that you could share?

Thank you,

Aashish

Hi,

The way to export it is as a csv file:

Use this command for it, make sure to edit correctly model name, body, path and so on:
ExportMassProperties=''' <ExportMassProperties UUID="0fd1f4ae-0e76-4125-a915-ef18f37b0e08">
<tag Value="-1"/>
<SupportEntities>
<Entities>
<Model>SETMODELNAME</Model>
<Body></Body>
</Entities>
</SupportEntities>
<FileName Value="SETPATH"/>
<CoordName Value="Global"/>
<Mass Value=""/>
<MOICenter Value="Mass Center"/>
</ExportMassProperties>''';
simlab.execute(ExportMassProperties);

Hi Marc,

I am trying to export out the moment of inertia and volume for the selected bodies.

Hope this answers your question.

Best,
