Thank you for the reply, however the examples given are too basic for what I am looking for. I know how to handle the simple case of kDistanceExtent, as the value is essentially built in, however I have a case with kToExtent, and no faces to reference (side, start, and end face counts all return 0).
If you'd like a little more information, my current method is to look for planar side faces, if they exist, and find the edge which is parallel to the normal of the sketch plane which created the extrusion. This edge allows me to grab a value for the depth of the 'cut'. If the side face is cylindrical, an edge still exist so my method works.
In the case of a fully rotated cylinder, no vertices or edges are present, so I just use the fact that the face area should be equal to 2*Pi*r*h and extract h.
However, now I have a extrusion that someone has made where no side faces (or any faces for that matter) are present to work with. However, as I said, within the GUI I can literally see the value that it should be, so I was wondering if there was some simpler way to get this number that I am just missing.
