ExtrudeFeatureInput.setSymmetricExtent Method

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

Description

Defines the extrusion to go symmetrically in both directions from the profile.

Syntax

"extrudeFeatureInput_var" is a variable referencing an ExtrudeFeatureInput object.

# Uses no optional arguments.
returnValue = extrudeFeatureInput_var.setSymmetricExtent(distance, isFullLength)

# Uses optional arguments.
returnValue = extrudeFeatureInput_var.setSymmetricExtent(distance, isFullLength, taperAngle)
"extrudeFeatureInput_var" is a variable referencing an ExtrudeFeatureInput object.

#include <Fusion/Features/ExtrudeFeatureInput.h>

// Uses no optional arguments.
returnValue = extrudeFeatureInput_var->setSymmetricExtent(distance, isFullLength);

// Uses optional arguments.

Return Value

Type Description
boolean Returns true is setting the extent was successful.

Parameters

Name Type Description
distance ValueInput The distance of the extrusions. This is either the full length of half of the length of the final extrusion depending on the value of the isFullLength property.
isFullLength boolean Defines if the value defines the full length of the extrusion or half of the length. A value of true indicates it defines the full length.
taperAngle ValueInput Optional argument that specifies the taper angle. The same taper angle is used for both sides for a symmetric extrusion. If omitted a taper angle of 0 is used.

This is an optional argument whose default value is null.

Samples

Name Description
Extrude Feature API Sample

Demonstrates creating a new extrude feature.

Before running: No open document is required; the script creates a new design (or additional documents) as it runs.

The script uses the timeline (<code>rollTo</code>) to inspect feature history.
