clash_3d output?

[coroto]

I'm interested in writing a utility which adds functionality to the existing clash_3d command in OSDM.

Any ideas on how, when calling it using sd-call-cmds from a dialog, to capture the output box messages for further processing? Or some other way to retrieve information on the calculated clashes and/or clearances which were calculated?

What I'd like to do, is do a clearance check and have my code be able to access the list of part pairs which fall below the minimum specified clearance.

TIA for any helpful suggestions!

Hallo,

With following piece of code you can get the clash result:

(sd-call-cmds (clash_3d
:analysis_type :clash
:pa_list_vs_pa_list
:first_list <part list1>
:second_list <part list2>
:clash_return_results :on
)
:success (display *sd-action-result*)
)


The command 'display' is only to see what is returned from the clash_3d dialog - for visual checking. You can specify any of the options available in the clash_3d dialog.
