If this property is true, then you can also specify ISweptFlangeFeatureData::MaterialInside.

If this property is:

  • True, then when the model is flattened the profile flattens and is rotated parallel to the plane of the path. The path is not flattened, and the result is a the shape of the path.
  • False, then when the model is flattened the profile flattens and is rotated perpendicular to the plane of the path. The path is flattened, and the result is a rectangular shape.
