WireEdgeDefinitions.Add Method

Parent Object: WireEdgeDefinitions

Description

Creates a new WireEdgeDefinition within the associated SurfaceBodyDefinition.

Syntax

WireEdgeDefinitions.Add( StartVertex As VertexDefinition, EndVertex As VertexDefinition, ModelSpaceCurve As Object ) As WireEdgeDefinition

Parameters

Name Type Description
StartVertex VertexDefinition Input VertexDefinition object that defines the start of the edge.
EndVertex VertexDefinition Input VertexDefinition object that defines the end of the edge.
ModelSpaceCurve Object Input transient geometry curve object that defines the shape of this edge using 3d geometry in model space. Valid input is Arc3d, BsplineCurve, Circle, EllipseFull, EllipticalArc, LineSegment and Polyline3D.

Samples

Name Description
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.
Transient B-Rep Ruled Surface with Lines Demonstrate creating a transient ruled surface. This sample uses all straight line segments for each of the sections. A part document must be open.
Transient B-Rep Ruled Surface with Arc and Line Demonstrate creating a transient ruled surface. This sample uses straight line segments for once section and an arc for the second. A part document must be open.
