NonParametricBaseFeatureDefinition Object


Description

The NonParametricBaseFeatureDefinition is a utility object used for creating, querying, and editing non-parametric base features. A NonParametricBaseFeatureDefinition object can be created using the CreateDefinition method of the NonParametricBaseFeatures collection object. They can also be obtained from existing NonParametricBaseFeature objects.

Samples

Name Description
Body Imprinting and matching the results This sample is intended to demonstrate a technique of finding the matching surfaces between the original input bodies and output imprinted bodies. This relies on transient keys, which is a unique ID associated with each B-Rep entity. A transient key is only good as long as the model is not recomputed.
Associative body copy The following sample demonstrates copying bodies (associatively and non-associatively) across parts in an assembly.
Transient surface body creation The following sample demonstrates the creation of a transient surface body consisting of a single rectangular face. The body is created in transient space and then copied over to a part document as a base feature.
