| name | swpilotcli-sketch-on-face |
| description | Open a new sketch on a specified face or plane. Accepts either a named plane (e.g. 前基準面) or world face coordinates in mm (e.g. 25,10,-20). Enters sketch editing mode and stays there — follow up with sketch-draw to draw geometry, then extrude-boss or extrude-cut. |
swpilotcli-sketch-on-face
Open a new sketch on a face or reference plane. Enters sketch editing mode.
Prerequisites
- SolidWorks is running with an active Part document
- No sketch should currently be active
Usage
dotnet run --project ./sup_tools/swpilotcli-sketch-on-face/scripts/SketchOnFace/SketchOnFace.csproj -- [plane_name | x,y,z]
Arguments
| Arg | Description |
|---|
plane_name | Name of a reference plane (e.g. 前基準面, 上基準面, 右基準面) |
x,y,z | World coordinates (mm) of any point on the target face |
| (none) | Uses the currently pre-selected face or plane |
Examples
dotnet run ... -- 前基準面
dotnet run ... -- 25,10,-20
dotnet run ...
How it works
- If a plane name is given → selects it by name using
SelectByID2
- If
x,y,z coords are given → selects the face at those world coordinates
- Calls
InsertSketch to enter sketch editing mode
- Stays in sketch — caller must run
sketch-draw then extrude-boss/extrude-cut
Notes
- Face coordinate
(fx, fy, fz) must lie on the face surface (not on an edge or in a hole)
- For the top face of an extruded block at Z = −depth/2, the sketch axes are:
- Sketch X = World X
- Sketch Y = World −Z
- After this tool, run
sketch-draw with a DSL JSON, then extrude-boss or extrude-cut
