GeodesicSketchOffset Method (IModelDocExtension)

Creates a geodesic sketch offset along the curvature of a surface.

.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function GeodesicSketchOffset( _
   ByVal Offset As System.Double, _
   ByVal Reverse As System.Boolean, _
   ByVal MakeConstruct As System.Boolean _
) As System.Boolean
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As IModelDocExtension
Dim Offset As System.Double
Dim Reverse As System.Boolean
Dim MakeConstruct As System.Boolean
Dim value As System.Boolean
 
value = instance.GeodesicSketchOffset(Offset, Reverse, MakeConstruct)
C# 
System.bool GeodesicSketchOffset( 
   System.double Offset,
   System.bool Reverse,
   System.bool MakeConstruct
)
C++/CLI 
System.bool GeodesicSketchOffset( 
&   System.double Offset,
&   System.bool Reverse,
&   System.bool MakeConstruct
) 

Parameters

Offset
Offset distance
Reverse
True to reverse the offset direction, false to not
MakeConstruct
True to make sketch construction geometry after offsetting, false to not

Return Value

True if the sketch offset is created, false if not

Remarks

To create a Euclidean sketch offset, use IModelDocExtension::SketchOffsetOnSurface.

Before calling this method, call IModelDocExtension::SelectByID2 for each edge to offset and set Append to true and Mark to 1.

After calling this method, call ISketchManager::InsertSketch to rebuild the model with the 3D sketch.
