CosmeticBendFeature.redefineAsPressBrake Method

This functionality is provided as a preview of intended future API capabilities. You are encouraged to use it and report any problems or suggestions using the Fusion API and Scripts forum.

Because this is a preview of future functionality, there is the possibility that it will change, which will possibly break any existing programs that use this functionality. Because of that, you should never deliver any programs that use any preview capabilities. For a distributed program, you should wait until it has moved from preview to released state.

Description

Redefines the cosmetic bend as a press brake bend, which is formed by an actual press brake tool and therefore has a defined bend angle and bend radius. Calling this method sets the bendType property to PressBrakeCosmeticBendType. The bend radius will follow the active sheet metal rule by default. To override the bend radius, use the bendRadiusOverride property.

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

returnValue = cosmeticBendFeature_var.redefineAsPressBrake(angle)

#include <Fusion/SheetMetal/CosmeticBendFeature.h>

returnValue = cosmeticBendFeature_var->redefineAsPressBrake(angle);

returnValue = cosmeticBendFeature_var.redefineAsPressBrake(angle);
