Advanced pavé shank

from ArtisanPlugin.Scripting import AdvancedPaveShankApi as pave

A band carrying one or more longitudinal rows of stones - each row a line of equal stones at its own lateral offset, running between two angles along the band.

No Create yet. Run ArtisanAdvancedPaveShank in the UI once, then script every variant from the handle.

Edit

The IAdvancedPaveShank handle exposes the band and the rail; each setter regenerates the shank in place, re-baking stones and prongs:

Section	What it edits
TopProfile	The band section - the same classic profile model: asset, closing type, width/height, thickness, comfort, rotation, orientation
Advanced	The opening at the bottom: none, cut or strangle
Rail	The rows (replace the whole list, or edit one by index), the prong definitions, and the global prong height and diameter
CuttersEnabled	Whether the gem cutters are subtracted from the band

from ArtisanPlugin.Scripting import AdvancedPaveShankApi as pave, Transaction

ring = pave.Selected()[0]
with Transaction.Begin("Tighter centre row"):
    ring.Rail.SetRow(0, gemSize = 1.1, offset = 0.0, spacing = 0.15,
                     startAngle = 20, endAngle = 160)
    ring.Rail.SetProngDiameter(0.6)

Each row reports GemSize, Offset, Spacing, StartAngle, EndAngle and Mirror; each prong reports its RowIndex, position, Diameter, Height and flags.
