Scripting API
Bangle
from ArtisanPlugin.Scripting import BangleApi
A bangle is the rigid bracelet that slips over the hand rather than fastening around the wrist. Artisan sweeps a ring profile around an oval defined by its width and height, either as a full closed hoop or as an open one with a gap of a given aperture.
Create
id = BangleApi.Create(plane = ..., width = 50, height = 30, aperture = 10,
closed = False, profile = None) # -> id
| Parameter | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
plane | active CPlane | Placement plane; omitted or invalid falls back to the active view’s construction plane, then to Plane.WorldXY |
width | 50 | Inner width of the oval, mm |
height | 30 | Inner height of the oval, mm |
aperture | 10 | Opening of the open type, mm - ignored when closed is True |
closed | False | True builds the full hoop (type CLOSED) |
profile | saved/default | A RING_PROFILE asset name, applied to all three bangle profiles |
Numeric parameters follow the 0-keeps-default convention: 0 means “use the tool’s default, or my saved defaults”. There is no -1 sentinel on this facade.
Create returns the single Guid of the bangle object - a parametric Bangle custom object, added to the metal layer with the document’s metal material, exactly like the panel’s Accept.
Defaults resolve as in the tool: the ring-profile asset is resolved first (by name when profile is given), then your saved bangle defaults replace the whole model - but only when no explicit profile was passed. Requesting a profile therefore skips your saved defaults for width, height and aperture as well, so state them explicitly when you need them.
This is a licensed mutation and needs an active document. A failed computation raises “Bangle computation failed” with the kernel’s message appended, and adds nothing. Wrap the call in a Transaction for one-step undo.
