Discovery

Is there any automatic way to imprint washers/bolt heads on a face in Discovery?
For instance, let's assume that we've got a wind blade bearing and the idea is to automatically make an imprint of the bolts holes by an edge offset. That offset is given by a ratio of the hole radius. Image below gives an overview of the final target:

Discovery Pull Helix revolve creates wrong height
Hi all, I have taken scripting of the Pull with helix revolve tool and want to parameterise. For some reason, the "height" of Pull is not being respected, e.g. creating a height of 34mm instead of the requested 31.9mm. This seems random, as for other dimensions the too works properly. Dscript file also attached. Can you…
Referencing SpaceClaim dlls
Hi, I have created several ACT functionalities in SpaceClaim ANSYS 2020R2 which I'm transfering to 2023R1.

Can I interact with SpaceClaim or Ansys Discovery from outside the application ?
Hello there. I want to interact with either SpaceClaim or Discovery programmatically, create geometries, and save files, without interacting with the software's UI. Very similar to the Pyfluent library to interact with Ansys Fluent with a Python script. How can it be done?

Example: How to use different geometry files parametrically in Workbench/Mechanical
This is an example of how to use totally independent geometry files as a parametric input in Workbench. This is done via script parameters in Discovery where the different geometry files are given a numeric value (i.e. a python dictionary of {1:Path1, 2:Path2, etc..}) These values can be used in conjunction with Named…

How do you flip the normal direction of a surface body via SpaceClaim scripting?
In SpaceClaim and Discovery the normal of a solid body is always "out" of the solid. For surface bodies the connected faces should always have consistent normal direction, but this direction can be flipped. In the interface you can flip the normal direction by using the tool in Measure - Quality - Normal, selecting a face…
