Samples

Name Description
Is cylindrical face interior or exterior? This sample shows how to determine whether the selected cylindircal face is an exterior face or an interior (hollow) face.
Tapered Surface Using Offset Curve and Ruled Surface This sample demonstrates much of the wire body creation functionality. To run the sample you must have a part open and select a planar face. This sample then creates a trasient wire body using the geometry of the outside of the selected face. It then transforms and offsets that wire, and finally creates a ruled surface between the original wire and the offset wire. A base feature is created with the ruled surface.
