Inventor API PartFeature question

Anonymous

Hi @ all,

 

I need to get familiar with the Inventor API for my thesis.

Currently, I need to extend the face of a part.

I started with selecting the face edge by

 

Dim ActiveDocument As Inventor.Document

Dim spline As Object
Set spline = ThisApplication.CommandManager.Pick(kPartEdgeFilter, "please choose the face edge!")

 

This is working fine.

I know that the next step would be to use the ExtendFeature method of PartFeature, but I do not know exactly how to do this. Do I need to get the face as parent of the edge? How can I invoke the extesion then?

Getting a hint would be great!

 

Thanks a lot,

Stefan

There is still no ExtendFeatures.Add method provided by the API, so unfortunately no way to create an extend feature from API.

 

Sorry for the bad news.

Philippe.
