Get Structural Member Body Sketch Segments Example (VB.NET)
This example shows how to get the sketch segments that define the path of a
body in a structural member.
'----------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Preconditions:
' 1. Open public_documents\tutorial\api\weldment_box3.sldprt.
' 2. Open the Immediate window.
'
' Postconditions:
' 1. Gets the feature definition of Structural Member1.
' 2. Selects body, Structural Member1[1].
' 3. Gets the number of sketch segments that define the path of the
' selected body.
' 4. Examine the Immediate window.
'
' NOTE: Because the part is used elsewhere, do not save changes.
