Get appearance properties of the Facetset/Facet objects using ProToolkit API's

psarode — Wed, 10 Apr 2024 08:45:46 GMT

I have CAD ( step/PVZ) models with parts which are composed of Facetset/Facet entities.

I want to export the geometry as well as material data for these parts.

I have got the API's to get the geometry data for them.

I did not find the API to get the material/appearance properties of these kind of objects.

There is one API ProSurfaceappearancepropsGet to get the appearance properties of the surface entities.

But I did not get the similar API for the Facetset/Facet entities.

Can anyone help me for this?

Hi @achirila ,

Thanks for the suggestion but I have mentioned my scenario and got the answer from the PTC support also that whatever I was looking for is not possible with the current Toolkit API's. You can refer this Color information for Facetset/Facet using Toolkit API .

Also it would be very helpful if you mention what kind of more data you were expecting from me so that I will keep that in mind from next time?

Thanks
