Parameters

SurfaceType

Type of surface to create as defined by swSurfaceTypes_e (see Remarks)

FacetTolerance

0.0 (High tolerance) <= Percent facet selection <= 100.0 (Low tolerance)

ExtendSurfaceSize

Extension in meters of the surface body to fit the selected facets and geometric shape

ErrorCode

0 if successful, -1 if not

Return Value

This method:

• is analogous to the Insert menu > Mesh > Surface From Mesh functionality in the user interface.
• creates a Surface-From-MeshX feature in the FeatureManager design tree.

Before calling this method, select as many facets in the graphics body as are needed to create the surface type.

SurfaceType can be one of only swSurfaceTypes_e.:

• PLANE_TYPE
• SPHERE_TYPE
• CYLINDER_TYPE
• CONE_TYPE
