[Frage] [PythonParts] ScriptObject Example on LearnNow [Gelöst]

Hi,

Thanks for adding examples in LearnNow for ScriptObject

So, I have few questions:

1) Can we have a notification when you add videos? (or maybe I missed it)

2) In modification mode you use 

self.modification_ele_list.is_modification_element()
why not 
self.is_modification_mode

In the main BaseScriptObjectData class it's the same and I think it's more easy to write / read

3) About the placement of the PythonPart, what is the difference between set a transformation matrix (included translation and rotation) with 

pythonpart = pyp_util.create_pythonpart(build_ele= self.build_ele, placement_matrix= transformation_matrix)
and set a placement point in 
CreateElementResult
and just the rotation with a matrix?

4) Please can you update the ScriptObjectPythonPart template :

def create_script_object(build_ele  : BuildingElement,
                         coord_input: AllplanIFW.CoordinateInput) -> BaseScriptObject
...

to

def create_script_object(build_ele         : BuildingElement,
                         script_object_data: BaseScriptObjectData) -> BaseScriptObject
...

ScriptObject is very great PythonPart, so more functionalities for the same writing level as Standard

Best Regards
Christophe

We never expected, that this course would be anticipated this much! At the moment, we don't plan any other topics to be covered in a video tutorial like this, but maybe this is the best opportunity to ask the community: what other topic/use-case would you like us to cover?

No particular reason. When I created the course, I just overseen the shorter option but feel free to use it.

No real difference, as long as you use the placement_matrix argument and not the local_placement_matrix. The latter has some other side effects, which I haven't investigated yet.

We'll try, but it is not that easy to change anything in the released version. We will likely deliver these templates differently than with the application. Probably together with the examples, as we now have an efficient tool in the SDK to download the examples.

Best,
Bart
