Creates an untrimmed toroidal surface from the specified arguments.

.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function ICreateToroidalSurface( _
   ByRef Center As System.Double, _
   ByRef Axis As System.Double, _
   ByRef RefDirection As System.Double, _
   ByVal MajorRadius As System.Double, _
   ByVal MinorRadius As System.Double _
) As Surface
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As IModeler
Dim Center As System.Double
Dim Axis As System.Double
Dim RefDirection As System.Double
Dim MajorRadius As System.Double
Dim MinorRadius As System.Double
Dim value As Surface
 
value = instance.ICreateToroidalSurface(Center, Axis, RefDirection, MajorRadius, MinorRadius)
C# 
Surface ICreateToroidalSurface( 
   ref System.double Center,
   ref System.double Axis,
   ref System.double RefDirection,
   System.double MajorRadius,
   System.double MinorRadius
)
C++/CLI 
Surface^ ICreateToroidalSurface( 
&   System.double% Center,
&   System.double% Axis,
&   System.double% RefDirection,
&   System.double MajorRadius,
&   System.double MinorRadius
) 

Parameters

Center
Array containing 3 doubles (see Remarks)
Axis
Array containing 3 doubles (see Remarks)
RefDirection
Array containing 3 doubles (see Remarks)
MajorRadius
See Remarks
MinorRadius
See Remarks

Remarks

Input arguments:

  • Center XYZ location that represents the center of the spherical surface.

  • Axis XYZ direction of the axis of the spherical surface.

  • RefDirection XYZ direction of the reference axis of the spherical surface; it must be perpendicular to the axis.

  • MajorRadius major radius of the toroidal surface.

  • MinorRadius minor radius of the toroidal surface.

The resulting surface can be trimmed using a method like ISurface::CreateTrimmedSheet or ISurface::CreateTrimmedSheet3 to generate a sheet body.
