HoleFeatures.createCountersinkInput Method

Parent Object: HoleFeatures
Defined in namespace "adsk::fusion" and the header file is <Fusion/Features/HoleFeatures.h>

Description

Creates a HoleFeatureInput object that defines a countersink hole. This is not a hole feature but an object used to create a hole feature. Functionality on the returned HoleFeatureInput object is used to define the position and extent of the hole.

Syntax

"holeFeatures_var" is a variable referencing a HoleFeatures object.
returnValue = holeFeatures_var.createCountersinkInput(holeDiameter, countersinkDiameter, countersinkAngle)
"holeFeatures_var" is a variable referencing a HoleFeatures object.

#include <Fusion/Features/HoleFeatures.h>

returnValue = holeFeatures_var->createCountersinkInput(holeDiameter, countersinkDiameter, countersinkAngle);

Return Value

Type Description
HoleFeatureInput Returns the newly created HoleFeatureInput object or null if the creation failed.

Parameters

Name Type Description
holeDiameter ValueInput A ValueInput object that defines the diameter of the hole. If the ValueInput uses a real, it is interpreted as centimeters. If it is a string, the units can be defined as part of the string (i.e. "3 in") If no units are specified, it is interpreted using the current default units for length.

If tap information is added to the hole using the returned HoleFeatureInput, it will override this diameter, and the hole will be the correct size for the specified tap.
countersinkDiameter ValueInput A ValueInput object that defines the diameter of the countersink. If the ValueInput uses a real, it is interpreted as centimeters. If it is a string, the units can be defined as part of the string (i.e. "3 in") If no units are specified, it is interpreted using the current default units for length.
countersinkAngle ValueInput A ValueInput object that defines the angle of the countersink. If the ValueInput uses a real then it is interpreted as radians. If it is a string then the units can be defined as part of the string (i.e. "120 deg"). If no units are specified it is interpreted using the current default units for angles.

Samples

Name Description
holeFeatures.add with Countersink Demonstrates the holeFeatures.add method using the createCountersinkInput method and postions the hole in the center of a selected circular edge.
