Code Examples

This code examples show you why you need to use this library.

How did you code before

using TSMUI = Tekla.Structures.Model.UI;
using Tekla.Structures.Model;
    public double GetWeight()
    {
            //Summing all weight of all parts in Assembly
            TSMUI.ModelObjectSelector selector = new();
            double allWeight = 0;
            ModelObjectEnumerator enumerator = selector.GetSelectedObjects();
            while (enumerator.MoveNext())
            {
                if (enumerator.Current is Assembly assembly)
                {
                    ModelObject mainPart = assembly.GetMainPart();
                    _ = mainPart.GetReportProperty("WEIGHT", ref allWeight);
                    foreach (object item in assembly.GetSecondaries())
                    {
                        ModelObject modelObject = item as ModelObject;
                        double tempWeight = 0;
                        modelObject.GetReportProperty("WEIGHT", ref tempWeight);
                        allWeight += tempWeight;
                    }
                }
            }
            return allWeight;
    }

How you write with LINQ queries

using TSMUI = Tekla.Structures.Model.UI;
using Tekla.Structures.Model;
using Tekla.Extensions;
        public double GetWeight()
        {
            //Summing all weight of all parts in Assembly
            TSMUI.ModelObjectSelector selector = new();

            return selector.GetSelectedObjects()
                    .ToIEnumerable<Assembly>()
                    .FirstOrDefault()
                    .GetAllPartsOfAssembly()
                    .Select(a => a.GetWeight())
                    .Sum();
        }
