   int IdIn
)

Parameters

IdIn

Face ID

Remarks

This ID is used for tracking the specific faces of imported bodies; for example, IGES imports.

The face ID is a persistent ID that is not saved with the document. Any third-party application can change the face ID. The intent is that you assign an ID to a face so that you can refer to that face within your application. Each ID must be unique, so it is best to let SolidWorks assign the ID values for you when an imported body or surface is created.

To store data with a face, use the IAttribute object.
