| roger_maitland | My CQ is quite rusty these days, but here is how to position text on the top surface of a box with build123d:
from build123d import *
from ocp_vscode import show
with BuildPart() as example:
Box(100, 100, 5)
with BuildSketch(example.faces().sort_by(Axis.Z)[-1]):
Text("sample", font_size=20)
extrude(amount=2)
show(example)
The with BuildSketch(example.faces().sort_by(Axis.Z)[-1]): means create a sketch on a workplace aligned with the Face of the box that is the most extreme with respect to the Z axis (standard Python list indices/slicing is used). In build123d, Text is always a 2D object so it gets extruded just like any 2D object (it could be swept or lofted, etc.).
build123d has an Algebra mode as well which tends to be more compact which might be attractive if you're generating the code from VBA. | 15:00:53 |
 halogenix | Thank you for your responses. It’s weird when I can make the text position with position using workplane origin.
But after that it display overlapped on exported cad (dxf)
Finally I use workplane translate and can display as I want | 15:22:03 |
