Vertex Object


Description

The Vertex object represents a transient point in boundary representation data.

Methods

Name Description
GetPoint Method that gets the coordinates of the vertex point.
GetReferenceKey Method that generates and returns the reference key for this entity.
GetSourceVertex Method that gets the source vertex that has been overridden by this vertex. The method returns Nothing if this vertex is not an override. An error is returned if this method is called on a vertex in a part.

Properties

Name Description
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.
AttributeSets Property that returns the AttributeSets collection object associated with this object.
Edges Gets the referenced by this Vertex.
Faces Property that returns the that this Vertex is referenced from.
IsTolerant Indicates if this vertex is using tolerant modeling to allow a non-exact model.
Parent Property that returns the parent object from whom this object can logically be reached.
Point Property that returns a Point geometry object. The Point object returned provides information about the position of the vertex.
Tolerance Returns the tolerance being used for modeling calculations and this Vertex.
TransientKey Property that obtains an ID key that can be used to bind back to the live object. This transient key is only valid as long as the document state has not changed. For more information, see the ReferenceKeys overview
Type Returns an ObjectTypeEnum indicating this object's type.
