object GetTessTriangles( 
   bool NoConversion

Object^ GetTessTriangles( 
&   bool NoConversion
) 

Parameters

NoConversion

True prohibits conversion to user units from system units, false does not

Return Value

Array (see Remarks)

Tessellation information is available only when the component is loaded as lightweight.

These triangles are intended for graphics display purposes and do not represent a tessellation that could be used, for example, by a machining application. If you need the type of accuracy associated with a machining product, we recommend that you traverse the body faces and extract the topology and geometry data to create your own faceting.

The format of the returned data is:

• float x, y, z - first point in meters

• float x, y, z - second point in meters

• float x, y, z - third point in meters

for the set of triangles for the component.

The total size of the data is [ 9 x sizeof(float) x (number of triangles) ].
