iFeature input features and their paramaters

Anonymous

I have created an iFeature using two features: Extruded a profile with subtraction creating a hole, a sweep of one of the sides of the created hole.

The combo iFeature needs a profile and a face and creates notch like custom feature (ide  and ipt attached).

iFeatureInputs return only exposed inputs like profile and the face.

Is it possible to get feature parameters of the constituent input features, such as profile of the extrude and profiles of the sweep?

Can you explain why you want to get the source extrude&sweep features' profiles via the iFeature?  If you want to change the profile size in the iFeature, I think what you should do is to add dimensions to the profile in the source part, and then re-generate the IDE in which you should expose the dimensions' parameters for users to customize. Like in below sample, I expose the d5 and d6 which controls the profile size for the IDE:

then when insert the iFeature, we can change the values for the profile size:

Please let me if this helps.
