ContourFlangeDefinition.GetWidthExtentType Method

Parent Object: ContourFlangeDefinition

Description

Property that returns the method used to define the width extent. The valid values for this property are kWidthEdgeExtent, kWidthWidthExtent, kWidthOffsetExtent, and kWidthFromToExtent.

Remarks

If the contour flange already exists you must roll back the model to the point just before the contour flange feature was created so that the edge exists in the model and can be used as input to this method.

Syntax

ContourFlangeDefinition.GetWidthExtentType( Edge As Edge, HasOverride As Boolean ) As PartFeatureExtentEnum

Parameters

Name Type Description
Edge Edge The Edge object that identifies the physical contour flange to return the width extent type for. The creation of a single contour flange feature can result in many physical contour flanges being added to the part. Each edge specified for the contour flange feature wll result in a physical contour flange. The edge specified as input to this argument must be one of the edges that was specified as input to the contour flange feature and defines which physical contour flange to return the width extent type for.
HasOverride Boolean Output value that indicates if the width extent is an override extent or not. A value of True indicates that an override exists. A value of False indicates that the default width extent of the Flange feature is being used for this physical flange.
