   ByVal TopLevelOnly As Boolean _
) As Object
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As IFeatureManager
Dim TopLevelOnly As Boolean
Dim value As Object

   bool TopLevelOnly
)
C++/CLI 
Object^ GetFeatures(

)

Parameters

TopLevelOnly
True to get only the features at the top level of the FeatureManager design tree, false to get the top-level features and all child features in the FeatureManager design tree

Return Value

Array of all of the features

Example

Remarks

If TopLevelOnly is false, then this method gets all of the feature and child features in this document.  It does not get features in components.

 

The features that are returned by this method can be in any order. You should not rely on the order to indicate anything about children or parents. If hierarchy and order information is needed, then use IPartDoc::FirstFeature or IPartDoc::IFirstFeature or IModelDoc2::FirstFeature or IModelDoc2::FirstFeature, IFeature::GetNextFeature or IFeatureIGetNextFeature, IFeature::GetFirstSubFeature or IFeature::IGetFirstSubFeature, and IFeature::GetNextSubFeature or IFeature::IGetNextSubFeature to retrieve your information.
