I have a group of surface bodies that I need to calculate the surface area of, and I am having trouble figuring out how to do it. The iProperties->Physical measurement for area shows as 0.000 mm^2, which is I assume because there are no solid bodies (just surfaces). My surfaces are complex and I haven't had much success thickening the surfaces (I can get it to work but it takes a huge amount of time that I'd rather not spend doing this).
What I am hoping to do is use a combination of the measure area tool and looping through all the faces of the model in order to measure the area, but I'm not sure how to do either of these things using the Inventor API.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this?
Thanks in advance!
