Using COM API or .NET API to retrieve Point3D from a path

I asked a question earlier about something similar, but with no answer I will try to reformulate my question.

Is it possible to use either COM API or .NET API to retrieve the global points (in Point3D) that a path (lines and arcs) is constructed of?

Se picture below. I want to get the geometry of the path in the model, with the API, so that I can store it in a list of points representing the path.

Anyone know a good way to do this?

Hi,

I think no API tells this.

It is said giving the primitives (triangles) of the geometries, we could check which which area is solid, which is not. But this is pure graphics question which is far out of Navisworks API. And these algorithms wouldn’t be simple.
