Create and Modify Move Face Feature Example (C#)

This example shows how to create a Move Face feature by translating a face on a part.

//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Preconditions: Verify that the specified part exists.
//
// Postconditions: 
// 1. Creates Move Face1 in the FeatureManager design tree.
// 2. Modifies the translation parameters of Move Face1. 
//
// NOTE: Because the part is used elsewhere, do not save any changes.
