vcAssemblyPattern

Assembly pattern is a collection of assembly slots, which form a reusable definition of which product types should be placed in which position and orientation in the assembly. Note that assembly patterns can also exist independently from assembly product types (vcAssemblyProductType).

Properties

Name	Type	Access	Description
Properties	List of vcProperty	R	Property container.
UniqueID	String	R	Unique identifier for this assembly pattern.
Slots	List of vcAssemblyPatternSlot	R	List of all slots associated with this pattern.
Name	String	RW	Pattern name.

Methods

Name	Return Type	Parameters	Description
getSlot	vcAssemblyPatternSlot	Integer index	Returns slot from the pattern at specified index.
createSlot	vcAssemblyPatternSlot	[Integer index]	Creates slot at index specified by index. If index is specified outside of valid indexes or not specified at all, the slot is appended to the existing ones.
removeSlot	None	vcAssemblyPatternSlot slot, Integer index	Deletes the slot, given explicitly as slot, or retrieved based on the index.
cloneSlotFrom	vcAssemblyPatternSlot	vcAssemblyPatternSlot slot, [Integer index]	Creates a copy of given slot at given pattern slot index. If index is specified outside of valid indexes or not specified at all, the slot is appended to the existing ones.
deleteProperty	None	vcProperty property	Deletes a property of the step.
getProperty	vcProperty	String propertyName	Returns a property of the step.
createProperty	vcProperty	Enumeration type, String name, [Enumeration constraints]	Creates a new property to the step. See Property Constraint Constants for more information.

Events

Name	Parameters	Description
