ContourFlangeDefinition.SetWidthOffsetWidthExtent Method
Parent Object: ContourFlangeDefinitionDescription
Method that changes the ContourFlangeDefinition object to define a contour flange whose width is defined relative to another entity.
Syntax
ContourFlangeDefinition.SetWidthOffsetWidthExtent( Edge As Edge, Width As Variant, OffsetDistance As Variant, OffsetEntity As Object, PositiveDirection As Boolean )Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| Edge | Edge | The Edge that identifies which physical contour flange to set the width extent for. The creation of a single contour flange feature can result in many physical contour flanges being added to the part. Each edge specified for the contour flange feature wll result in a physical contour flange. The edge specified as input to this argument must be one of the edges that was specified as input to the contour flange feature and defines which physical contour flange to set the width extent for. |
| Width | Variant | Input Variant that defines the distance to use for the width extent of the contour flange. This can be either a numeric value or a string. A parameter for this value will be created and the supplied string or value is assigned to the parameter. If a value is input, the units are centimeters. If a string is input, the units can be specified as part of the string or it will default to the current length units of the document. |
| OffsetDistance | Variant | Input Variant that defines the distance of the contour flange from the offset entity. This can be either a numeric value or a string. A parameter for this value will be created and the supplied string or value is assigned to the parameter. If a value is input, the units are centimeters. If a string is input, the units can be specified as part of the string or it will default to the current length units of the document. |
| OffsetEntity | Object | Input Object that defines the entity the distance is measured relative to. This can be a point (WorkPoint or a Vertex object) or a plane (Face or WorkPlane object that is perpendicular to the selected edge). |
| PositiveDirection | Boolean | Input Boolean that specifies the side of the offset entity the contour flange is on. |
