Methods

Name Description
add Creates a new boss feature (or more boss features) based on the information provided by a BossFeatureInput object. To create a new boss or boss connection, use createInput function to define a new input object for the type of boss feature you want to create. Use the methods and properties on the input object to define any additional inputs. Once the information is defined on the input object, you can pass it to the Add method to create the boss feature or boss connection.
classType Static function that all classes support that returns the type of the class as a string. The returned string matches the string returned by the objectType property. For example if you have a reference to an object and you want to check if it's a SketchLine you can use myObject.objectType == fusion.SketchLine.classType().
createInput Creates a new BossFeatureInput object that is used to specify the input needed to create a new boss feature(s).
item Function that returns the specified boss feature using an index into the collection.
itemByName Function that returns the specified boss feature using the name of the feature.
