WorkPlane.SetByPointAndTangent Method

Parent Object: WorkPlane

Description

Method that redefines the work plane to pass through the input point and tangent to the input surface.

Syntax

WorkPlane.SetByPointAndTangent( Point As Object, Face As Face )

Parameters

Name Type Description
Point Object Input object that represents a point. This object can be a Vertex, WorkPoint, SketchPoint3D or SketchPoint object.
Face Face Input Face object that indicates the tangent surface. This face must either be a cylinder, a cone that is positioned such that a valid tangent exists, a sphere or a bspline surface.

Remarks

The input point must lie on the input surface. This method is not valid when the work plane exists in an Assembly component definition.
