Insert Solid Body Boundary Surface Feature Example (C#)

This example shows how to insert a solid body boundary surface feature.

//-------------------------------------------------------------
// Preconditions: Verify that the specified part template
// exists.
//
// Postconditions:
// 1. Opens a new part.
// 2. Inserts a sketch of a rectangle, Sketch1, on Front Plane.
// 3. Creates Surface-Plane1 using Sketch1.
// 4. Creates Plane1.
// 5. Creates a sketch of a circle, Sketch2, on Plane1.
// 6. Creates Surface-Plane2 using Sketch2.
// 7. Inserts a solid body boundary surface feature, Boundary-Surface1,
//    using Surface-Plane1 and Surface-Plane2.
// 8. Examine the graphics area and expand Solid Bodies(1) in the
//    FeatureManager design tree to verify step 7.
