How to create points in a component in SpaceClaim?

When I create points in SpaceClaim with the following command :

point = Point.Create(X[i],Y[i],Z[i])

result = DesignCurve.Create(GetRootPart(),CurveSegment.Create(PointCurve.Create(point)),False).SetColor(None, Color.FromArgb(transparency, redColor,greenColor,blueColor))

This created points in curves folder under root part. How can I create these points directly within a specific component?

For example :

Create component named “bob”
Create points under “bob”

you can try to move the point in the component after creation

    rootPart = GetRootPart()
    component = rootPart.Components[0] # A component already exists
    point = Point.Create(1, 1, 1)
    pointCurve = PointCurve.Create(point)
    trimmedCurve = CurveSegment.Create(pointCurve)
    designCurve = DesignCurve.Create(rootPart, trimmedCurve, True)
    ComponentHelper.MoveBodiesToComponent(Selection.Create(designCurve), Selection.Create(component))

ClearAll()
component = ComponentHelper.CreateAtRoot("ComponentBob")
ComponentHelper.SetActive(Selection.Create(component))
activePart = GetActivePart()
point = Point.Create(1, 1, 1)
pointCurve = PointCurve.Create(point)
trimmedCurve = CurveSegment.Create(pointCurve)
designCurve = DesignCurve.Create(activePart, trimmedCurve, True)

You can set the component active then create the point. The point will be in the component.

ClearAll()
component = ComponentHelper.CreateAtRoot("ComponentBob")
ComponentHelper.SetActive(Selection.Create(component))
point = Point.Create(1, 1, 1)
result = SketchPoint.Create(point)

ClearAll()
component = ComponentHelper.CreateAtRoot("ComponentBob")
ComponentHelper.SetActive(Selection.Create(component))
activePart = GetActivePart()
point = Point.Create(1, 1, 1)
pointCurve = PointCurve.Create(point)
trimmedCurve = CurveSegment.Create(pointCurve)
designCurve = DesignCurve.Create(activePart, trimmedCurve, True)
