Properties
| Application |
Returns the top-level parent application object. When used the context of Inventor, an Application object is returned. When used in the context of Apprentice, an ApprenticeServer object is returned. |
| AssociativeID |
Gets and sets the associate ID of this face. This ID will be transferred to the corresponding face when this SurfaceBodyDefinition is used to create a SurfaceBody. It is used by Inventor as the identifier for the face and is used for tracking this geometry. |
| EdgeLoopDefinitions |
Property that returns the collection of EdgeLoopDefinition objects associated with this FaceDefinition object. |
| IsParamReversed |
Read write property that indicates if the normal of this face is reversed with respect to the geometry associated with this face definition. |
| SurfaceGeometry |
