UDF Instantiation & Design Sequence Powercopy

Hello everyone,

 

Let me share with you a tutorial/demonstration showing the capability (since 2024xGA) of User Feature (UDF) instantiation in Visual Scripting.

With this feature we can combine the best of Visual Scripting and Generative Shape Design (GSD).

  • Unlocking new complex feature pattern possibilities
  • Saving time with detailled design automation without needing to write code

 

In this demo:

  1. We use Visual Scripting to create an automated process to instantiate a boss user feature without writing code
    The UDF is inserted in a Resource Table to be available to Design Sequences inside the same 3DShape.
  2. The automated process includes "smart" logic
    We leverage the power of list manipulation in Visual Scripting to put conditional statements on parameter values and automatically adapt input parameters of the UDF to conditions.
  3. Using Powercopy, we can easily apply this design sequence in a new context 
    In this situation, the Powercopy should include both the Design Sequence and the Resource Table that carries the UDF
