autodeskfusion360 / parameterio_python Goto Github PK

Hi, I'm fairly new to this plugin so I'm not sure if it's a workflow thing that I'm missing. But is it possible to automatically update the files with the parameters?

I've had times where files go out of sync because I forget to reimport the parameters to every component in an assembly

Also not sure if im using incorrectly, but when I export the parameters it also exports the model parameters eg. "d34"

This becomes an issue if I import that parameter list into another files which also has a "d34" dimension but for a completely different sketch.

Currently to get around this, I'm editing the generated csv to remove any non-user parameters. Could there be an option to only export user params?

@adamenagy I was wondering about modifying this plugin to not only import from CSV, but to also delete any parameters that aren't in the CSV, and are unused. That way removing them from the CSV would automatically keep the Fusion 360 parameters table synced.

I found isDeletable in the API http://help.autodesk.com/view/fusion360/ENU/?guid=GUID-96F0D697-0616-4A26-8DB9-021419121B70

However, calling design.allParameters.removeByItem(...) results in:

Traceback (most recent call last):
/production/d2d901e2ef5ae5c384b4ac001a48c4e37589dc43/Api/Python/packages\adsk\fusion.py", line 20182, in removeByItem
    return _fusion.ParameterList_removeByItem(self, *args)
RuntimeError: 3 : list is read only

What's confusing me is that add works, even though the docs say that should also fail.

Is there a way to actually delete a property? The API seems to be there for it, but doesn't seem to work.
