Camera Settings within ACT Extension

Ayush Kumar

    camera = Graphics.Camera
    camera.FocalPoint = Point([0.255500, -0.002500, 0.000000], 'm')
    camera.ViewVector = Vector3D(0.000000, 0.000000, 1.000000)
    camera.UpVector = Vector3D(0.000000, 1.000000, 0.000000)
    camera.SceneHeight = Quantity(0.327739, 'm')
    camera.SceneWidth = Quantity(0.624862, 'm')
    camera.Rotate(30, CameraAxisType.ScreenY)
    camera.Rotate(30, CameraAxisType.ScreenX)
    camera.SetFit()

The above mentioned code within ACT Console works perfectly fine, however when used within an extension, I get the following error:

File "C:\Program Files\ANSYS Inc\v201\ACT\extensions\DropTestReport\main.py", line 14, in main 
AttributeError: 'type' object has no attribute 'Camera'

Can you try to use the full path i.e: camera = ExtAPI.Graphics.Camera

Vishnu

Can you try something like this :

Point=Ansys.Mechanical.Graphics.Point([1,1,1],’m’)


a=ExtAPI.Graphics 


a.Camera.FocalPoint=Point 


a.Camera.Rotate(20.0,CameraAxisType.GlobalY)

 
a.Camera.SceneHeight=Quantity('20 [m]’) 

a.Camera.SetSpecificViewOrientation(ViewOrientationType.Iso)
