LoftDefinition Object

Description

The LoftDefinition object is used to define additional input required for creating loft features.

Methods

Name	Description
Copy	Method that creates and returns a copy of this loft definition.

Properties

Name	Description
Centerline	Property that specifies the centerline for the loft.
Closed	Property that specifies whether the loft needs to be closed or not.
FirstSectionAngle	Property that specifies the angle of the loft in relation to the sketch plane of the starting section.
FirstSectionCondition	Property that specifies the condition of the loft at the starting section.
FirstSectionDirectionReversed	Property that specifies whether the takeoff direction for the starting section should be reversed from its default direction.
FirstSectionImpact	Property that specifies the impact the starting section's condition has on the shape of the entire loft.
FirstSectionTangentPlane	Property that specifies the tangent plane for the starting section in the case that the section is a point.
LastSectionAngle	Property that specifies the angle of the loft in relation to the sketch plane of the ending section.
LastSectionCondition	Property that specifies the condition of the loft at the ending section.
LastSectionDirectionReversed	Property that specifies whether the takeoff direction for the ending section should be reversed from its default direction.
LastSectionImpact	Property that specifies the impact the ending section's condition has on the shape of the entire loft.
LastSectionTangentPlane	Property that specifies the tangent plane for the ending section in the case that the section is a point.
LoftRails	Property that specifies the rails for the loft.
LoftSectionDimensions	Property that specifies the placed section dimensions for an area-graph type loft.
LoftType	Property that gets the type of loft feature.
MapPointCurves	Property that specifies the mapping to use between sections.
MergeTangentFaces	Property that specifies if the tangent faces of the loft should be merged or not.
Operation	Property that specifies the type of operation used to add the feature to the model.
Sections	Property that specifies the sections used for a loft.

Samples

Name	Description
Loft Feature With Non-Planar Section	This sample demonstrates the creation of a loft feature. It uses two sections for the loft, one is from a 2d sketch and the other is a non-planar section from a 3d sketch. Because one of the sketches isn't planar, a surface is created instead of a solid.
