ExtrudeFeature.setOneSideExtent Method

Description

Redefines the extrusion to go in one direction from the profile. The extent of the extrusion is defined by the extent argument.

To use this method, you need to position the timeline marker to immediately before this feature. This can be accomplished using the following code: thisFeature.timelineObject.rollTo(True)

Syntax

Python
C++

"extrudeFeature_var" is a variable referencing an ExtrudeFeature object.

# Uses no optional arguments.
returnValue = extrudeFeature_var.setOneSideExtent(extent, direction)

# Uses optional arguments.
returnValue = extrudeFeature_var.setOneSideExtent(extent, direction, taperAngle)

"extrudeFeature_var" is a variable referencing an ExtrudeFeature object.

#include <Fusion/Features/ExtrudeFeature.h>

// Uses no optional arguments.
returnValue = extrudeFeature_var->setOneSideExtent(extent, direction);

// Uses optional arguments.
returnValue = extrudeFeature_var->setOneSideExtent(extent, direction, taperAngle);

Parameters

extent

ExtentDefinition

An ExtentDefinition object that defines how the extent of the extrusion is defined. This can be a specified distance (DistanceExtentDefinition), to an entity (ToEntityExtent), or through-all (AllExtentDefinition). These objects can be obtained by using the static create method on the appropriate class.

direction

ExtentDirections

Specifies the direction of the extrusion. PositiveExtentDirection and NegativeExtentDirection are valid values. PositiveExtentDirection is in the same direction as the normal of the profile's parent sketch plane.

taperAngle

ValueInput

Optional argument that specifies the taper angle. If omitted a taper angle of 0 is used.

This is an optional argument whose default value is null.

Type	Description
boolean	Returns true is setting the input to a one sided extent was successful.
