Object that represents an existing offset feature in a design.
| 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. |
| setInputEntities |
Sets the faces and sheet bodies to offset. |
| 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 controlling the offset distance. You can edit the distance by editing the value of the parameter object. A positive value specifies that the offset is in the same direction as the normal direction of the face. |
| entities | Gets and sets the faces to be offset. To use this property, you need to position the timeline marker to immediately before this feature. This can be accomplished using the following code: thisFeature.timelineObject.rollTo(True) |
| 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. |
| isChainSelection | Get if the faces that are tangentially connected to the input faces (if any) are also offset. |
| 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. |
| offsetType | Gets and sets the offset type for the offset. To set this property, you need to position the timeline marker to immediately before this feature. This can be accomplished using the following code: thisFeature.timelineObject.rollTo(True) |
| operation | Gets the feature operation that was performed when the feature was created, (either 'NewBodyFeatureOperation' or 'NewComponentFeatureOperation'. |
| parentComponent | Returns the parent component that owns this feature. |
| timelineObject | Returns the timeline object associated with this feature. |
