PartCollection Class

class NXOpen.PartCollection

Bases: object

Represents the collection of all parts in a session.

Several methods including NXOpen.PartCollection.NewDisplay(), NXOpen.PartCollection.OpenDisplay() and NXOpen.BasePart.SaveAs() can take part names in NX Manager command-line format while running in NX Manager mode. This format is as follows:

Master Part: <@>DB/part-number/revision <@>DB/part-number/revision/master <@>DB/part-number/revision/master <@>DB/part-number/revision/master/version Non-Master Part: <@>DB/part-number/revision/type/name <@>DB/part-number/revision/type/name/version

The separator character (‘/’) may be any character not used in the part-number, revision or type fields. It is inferred as the first character after the “<@>DB” prefix.

To obtain an instance of this class, refer to NXOpen.Session

  • setEntirePart (bool) – If true, and if maintain_work_part is true, the reference set of the work_component will be set to “Entire Part”. If false, it will be left unchanged. See NXOpen.Assemblies.ComponentAssembly.ReplaceReferenceSet()
Returns:

a tuple
Return type:

A tuple consisting of (status, loadStatus). status is a NXOpen.PartCollectionSdpsStatus. Returns OK if the work part could be set as requested, or a status code indicating the reason why this was not possible. loadStatus is a NXOpen.PartLoadStatus. Any errors and warnings found when loading the new display part.
