Importing Alias Files

Importing an Alias file (*.wire) in Pixyz requires Autodesk Alias to be installed (with a valid license) on the same computer on which Pixyz is running.

Warning

The libalias_api.dll is not the only file required to import a *.wire file: other files located in the same directory where libalias_api.dll file is located are needed.

Configuring Pixyz API

To start importing *.wire files using Pixyz SDKr, the software needs to be initialized when executing a Python file.

Write at the beginning of your Python file the following command:

pxz.core.setModuleProperty("IO", "AliasApiDllPath", "Your libalias_api.dll file path")

Example

• Python

pxz.ore.setModuleProperty("IO", "AliasApiDllPath", "C:/Program Files/Autodesk/AliasDesign2019/bin/libalias_api.dll")
