NamedSelection class should contain the members of the Named Selection
Opened this issue · 3 comments
📝 Description of the feature
Currently, it's not possible to retrieve the bodies and components belonging to a Named Selection.
NamedSelection class only has 2 properties: id and name.
It would be useful to have a members property returning a list of the members belonging to the NS itself.
It would be even more useful if the object is returned rather than just the body/component id.

This one is actually a pretty good idea. Let me think about how to implement it properly.
So...
Right now, if the named selection is created through PyAnsys Geometry, this would be easy to implement. But you already need to pass the elements when creating the named selection, so it is not that "useful" I'd say - you already know which elements you used to create the named selection. Nonetheless, it could be implemented.
The problem comes if we are reading an existing design from the service. In that case, we need to implement the capability in the service to return the elements that make the named selection.
The backend team is going to open a user story to track this work.
Thanks for the update.
