Python enabled stitching

Curious if there will ever be python enabled stiching and being able to control multiple bodies.  Even a macro system would be nice, something akin to the macro system inside of Zbrush.  I want to make a dress or body that has multiple stuffed animals that connect to each other and also drape.  I do this by hand already but would really love to be able to add a level of computational randomness to it

  Hi! We just added Python Script feature to our 4.1 version. Please check it out by participating in our Open Beta test!

  Hi Erica,

  Yes I know that you have Python scripting but the API that it enables only deals with import, export, and a couple of other things

  https://support.clo3d.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000945448-Python-Script-API

  Is this all you have allowed access through the API?

  I am looking to access more the actual functionality of the software.  Stiching, Freezing, Moving, Surface density, etc.

  File organization batching doesn't really do much for me.

  For instance,  Aggregation would be possible through Python if I was apple to access that area of the software.  Such as other programs enable.  Im looking to do something like this

  Of coarse I can do this by hand but, to really explore the ability of your software....  I would love to be able to more broadly control the part to part interaction.

  That said, Clo3D is the best on the market when dealing with soft bodies.  You are hands down the only thing I can think that would be able to do soft body aggregations

  I have a whole series that I have done over the years and it keeps getting better.  And I wanna help make it better as well!

  Hi @qquirk,

   

  Thank you for such kind compliment! Unfortunately, all possible features regarding API are addressed in the manual that you referred to. More advanced features are to be added in the future!

  Sorry for the disappointment!

  Hi @Erica,

  Is there anything in the pipeline for adding more features to the Python API and when these may be released?

  Thanks

  @rjbtsim, I have a great news! According to our developers, they are planning to add more python features in our next release which will be in early 2019! Just few more months, please hang tight!

  I know the python API features available in MD will be added to CLO for the next release. However, we do not have a specified list :(

  Meanwhile, take a look at below link (MD manual for python API)

  Thanks!

  Oh,  I've been waiting and waiting.  Please release actual functionality via modeling API. The only positioning you have released is in the UtilityAPI and this is just the beginning.  Copying, Stitching, Draw API, etc etc.  Not everyone just wants to change fabric and export and import.  Yes the TechPack meta data is nice but, none of this increases the functionality of the modeling.  Besides one tease

  Get the position array of cloth shape. Each three array has x, y, z position of each vertex.
  */
  virtual void GetClothPositions(vector<float>& positions) {}

  PLEASE more!

  =)
