Hello there,

 

I am having difficulties creating a revolve feature in TWO directions based on angle value.

I think this is the required method, but it does not allow me to set asymmetric extent direction. Please help 😄

 

 

RevolveFeatures.AddByAngle Method

Description

Method that creates a new RevolveFeature that sweeps a specified angle. The new RevolveFeature is returned.

 

Syntax

RevolveFeatures.AddByAngle( Profile As Profile, AxisEntity As Object, Angle As Variant, ExtentDirection As PartFeatureExtentDirectionEnum, Operation As PartFeatureOperationEnum ) As RevolveFeature

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PartFeatureExtentDirectionEnum Enumerator

Description

Constants identifying the direction in which a feature extension needs to take place.

 

Methods

Name Value Description
kNegativeExtentDirection 20994 Extension in the negative direction.
kPositiveExtentDirection 20993 Extension in the positive direction.
kSymmetricExtentDirection 20995 Extension in positive AND negative direction.

Anybody? I need to figure this out as well.
I am finding documentation on the "ExtentTwo" option but everything is read only, so not sure how I'm supposed to define those values if they're read only.
