OffsetFacesFeature Object

Derived from: Feature Object
Defined in namespace "adsk::fusion" and the header file is <Fusion/Features/OffsetFacesFeature.h>

Description

Object that represents an existing Offset Faces feature in a design. Offset Faces features are created in the UI using the "Offset Face" or "Press Pull" command.

Methods

Name Description
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().

createForAssemblyContext

Creates or returns a proxy for the native object - i.e. a new object that represents this object but adds the assembly context defined by the input occurrence.

deleteMe

Deletes the feature. This works for both parametric and non-parametric features.

dissolve

Dissolves the feature so that the feature information is lost and only the B-Rep geometry defined by the feature remains. This is only valid for non-parametric features.

Properties

Name Description
assemblyContext Returns the assembly occurrence (i.e. the occurrence) of this object in an assembly. This is only valid in the case where this is acting as a proxy in an assembly. Returns null in the case where the object is not in the context of an assembly but is already the native object.
attributes Returns the collection of attributes associated with this face.
baseFeature If this feature is associated with a base feature, this property will return that base feature. If it's not associated with a base feature, this property will return null.
bodies Returns the bodies that were modified or created by this feature. This works for both parametric and non-parametric features. For a BaseFeature this returns the bodies that are owned by the base feature.
distance Returns the parameter that controls the offset distance. You can modify the distance by using the properties of the returned ModelParameter object.
entityToken
errorOrWarningMessage Returns the error or warning message in the case where the healthState property returns either WarningFeatureHealthState or ErrorFeatureHealthState. Otherwise this property returns an empty string.
faces Returns the faces that were created by this feature. This works for both parametric and non-parametric features.
healthState Returns the current health state of the feature.
inputFaces Returns an array of BRepFace objects that were offset. The timeline must be rolled back to immediately before this feature when getting or setting this property so the faces are available.
isParametric Indicates if this feature is parametric or not.
isSuppressed Gets and sets if this feature is suppressed. This is only valid for parametric features.
isValid Indicates if this object is still valid, i.e. hasn't been deleted or some other action done to invalidate the reference.
linkedFeatures Returns the set of features that are linked to this feature. The set of linked features are all of the features that were created in various components as the result of a single feature being created in the user interface.
name Returns the name of the feature as seen in the browser (non-parametric) or in the timeline (parametric).
nativeObject The NativeObject is the object outside the context of an assembly and in the context of its parent component. Returns null in the case where this object is not in the context of an assembly but is already the native object.
objectType Returns a string indicating the type of the object.
parentComponent Returns the parent component that owns this feature.
timelineObject Returns the timeline object associated with this feature.
