Join Explicit No Connect

Join Explicit No Connect

File: Part_Document_Scripts/Join_Explicit_No_Connect.py
Version: 1.1
Document Type: Part (also works with Part inside Product or Process)

---

Description

Joins selected surfaces or curves into a single element without checking for connexity. The result is created as a datum (isolated). The script automatically detects whether the result is a surface or curve and names it accordingly.

For joining only curves see Join Explicit No Connect Curve.
For joining only surfaces see Join Explicit No Connect Surface.

Requirements

Requirement	Value
Python	>= 3.10
pycatia	>= 0.8.3
wxPython	Not required
Open document	Part, or Part inside Product/Process

---

Usage

1. Open a CATPart document (or Product/Process containing a part) with surfaces or curves
2. Run the script
3. Select at least two surfaces or curves to join — click OK when done
4. The join is created as a datum in the current in-work geometric set

---

Output

• Result is named Join_Explicit_Surface.N or Join_Explicit_curve.N where N is an incrementing number
• Result is a datum (isolated) — no parametric link to the source geometry
• If the in-work object is not a geometric set, a new one named New Join Explicit is created
