Parameters

ThickDirType

Toggles the thickening direction:

  • 0 = outside

  • 1 = inside (default value)

Thickness

Thickness of the bend

BFormed
True to insert a formed lofted bend; false to insert a bent lofted bend (default)
DRadius
Bend radius; valid only if BFormed is false
BReferToEndPoint

True to calculate facet transitions using theoretical vertexes, false to calculate facet transitions using the smallest possible arcs that avoid interference between bend areas; valid only if BFormed is false

EFacetOption

Faceting option as defined in swLoftedBendFacetOptions_e; valid only if BFormed is false

DChordTol
Chord tolerance or maximum distance between the arc and linear segment of a chord; valid only if EFacetOption is set to swLoftedBendFacetOptions_e.swChordTolerance and BFormed is false
INumBends
Maximum number of bends per transition segment; valid only if EFacetOption is set to swLoftedBendFacetOptions_e.swBendsPerTransitionSegment and BFormed is false
DSegLength
Maximum length of the linear segment; valid only if EFacetOption is set to swLoftedBendFacetOptions_e.swSegmentLength and BFormed is false
DSegAngle
Maximum angle between adjacent linear segments; valid only if EFacetOption is set to swLoftedBendFacetOptions_e.swSegmentAngle and BFormed is false

Return Value

IFeature

Example

Remarks

Before calling this method, you must select at least two sketch profiles that are on parallel planes. You can either multi-select them in the graphics area or call IModelDocExtension::SelectByID2 with Mark = 1 for each sketch profile you want to select.
