Empty array when printing ComponentContainer Components

Python Programming

Hi

I’m trying to get a reference to product which is in Container.
According to manual, vcComponentContainer inherits vcContainer which has property named Components which returns a list of the components stored in the container. Python returns empty array when trying access that property. However, GUI says the product is in the container.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

The product is probably on the parent components path, which is also a container.

You could use the Transport Node instead of the Component Container:

Thanks, this works too.

You’re right, the product seems to be in the container of conveyors path. Thanks for the tip.
