ugh. the good news is that I can write some clever xpath that makes this SVG-manipulation trivial

the bad news is that I'm having to use ElementTree, which has "limited support for XPath expressions", so NOPE! my xpath won't work

it has been zero days since I crashed fusion360
ooh it's repeatable. that's fun
I continue to enjoy programming for fusion360
currently engaging in crash-oriented programming. the docs are incomplete and unclear, so I'm trying different things and seeing if they crash, work, or give me an error
one part of the python API for Fusion 360 is undocumented and just assumes you recognize that it's backed by a certain C++ object and that you know how STL std::vector's work
@foone Autodesk. Have you looked at Rhino? Or does it do your job?
@ravenonthill I've not looked at rhino, this is a work project where the fusion360 was built in from the start, so I can't really pick a different CAD program
@foone sigh.
