Hi, I'm student and I'm using Maxsurf Modeler Advanced Automation for my thesis.
I'm trying to do a TransformAdvanced of my model (using Python) but it doesn't work, and in VBA example or in Manual Modeler Automation there isn't this example function.
Now what I write in my code is:
msApp.Design.Hydrostatics.InitAdvancedTransform a=bool(msApp.Design.Hydrostatics.SetTargetLWL(4.6))b=bool(msApp.Design.Hydrostatics.SetTargetBeam(1.1))c=bool(msApp.Design.Hydrostatics.SetTargetPrismatic(0.6))print(a,b,c)msApp.Design.Hydrostatics.AdvancedTransform
Then the terminal return a: False, b:False, c:False so the SetTargets don't work.
Can you help me to solve this?
Thanks,
Simone
Hi Simone,
Depending on the hullform, there are limits to how far you can modify the hullform using the parametric transformation. Try it in the interactive UI to see if it works there with the model in question.
If you are still having difficulties, please submit a service request (see Help menu in MAXSURF applications)
cheers,
Pat
