Parameters

Sd
True for single ended, false for double ended
Flip

Flip side to cut; true to remove material outside of the profile, false to not

Dir

Reverse direction; true if you want Direction1 to be opposite the default direction (see Remarks)

T1
Termination type for first end as defined in swEndConditions_e
T2
Termination type for second end as defined in swEndConditions_e
D1
Depth of extrusion for first end in meters
D2
Depth of extrusion for second end in meters
Dchk1
True allows draft angle in first direction, false does not allow drafting
Dchk2
True allows draft angle in second direction, false does not allow drafting
Ddir1
True for first draft angle to be inward, false to be outward
Ddir2
True for second draft angle to be inward, false to be outward
Dang1
First draft angle
Dang2
Second draft angle
OffsetReverse1
If you chose to offset the first end condition from another face or plane, then true specifies offset in direction away from the sketch, false specifies offset from the face or plane in direction toward the sketch
OffsetReverse2

If you chose to offset the second end condition from another face or plane, then true specifies offset in direction away from the sketch, false specifies offset from the face or plane in direction toward the sketch

TranslateSurface1

When you choose swEndcondOffsetFromSurface as the termination type for the first end, then true specifies that the end of the extrusion is a translation of the reference surface, false specifies to use a true offset

TranslateSurface2

When you choose swEndcondOffsetFromSurface as the termination type for the second end, then true specifies that the end of the extrusion is a translation of the reference surface, false specifies to use a true offset

Thk1

Wall thickness 1 (Mid-plane type uses (Thk1)/2 for each direction)

Thk2

Wall thickness 2 (only used when RevThinDir=3 )

EndThk
End cap thickness (Only used when CapEnds=1)
RevThinDir

Thin feature type:

  • 0 = One direction

  • 1 = One direction reverse

  • 2 = Mid-plane

  • 3 = Two direction

CapEnds

Cap the ends:

  • 0 = no cap

  • 1 = cap (base features only)

AddBends

True to add auto bends (open profile base features only), false to not

BendRad

Fillet radii if AddBends = True

UseFeatScope

True if the feature only affects selected bodies, false if the feature affects all bodies

UseAutoSelect

True to automatically select all bodies and have the feature affect those bodies, false to select the bodies the feature affects (see Remarks)

Return Value

Pointer to the IFeature object

Remarks

The default direction for cut operations is opposite the sketch normal. The default direction for boss operations is along the sketch normal. Setting the Dir argument to True reverses the default direction. For double-ended extrusions, Direction 2 is always opposite of Direction 1.

The default sketch normal is the same as the face or plane normal where the sketch was placed. To determine this normal vector, see IFace2::Normal and IRefPlane::Transform, respectively.

When UseAutoSelect is false, the user must select the bodies that the feature will affect.

When using cut or cavity features that result in multiple bodies, you cannot select to keep all of the resulting bodies or one or more selected bodies.
