The Extrude feature : an Extrude is made up of a face to process and one Extrude parameter.
Role: To access the data of the hybrid shape extrude feature object.
LICENSING INFORMATION: Creation of volume result requires GSO License
if GSO License is not granted , settting of Volume context has not effect
Properties
-
Property BeginOffset() As (Read Only)
-
Role: To get_BeginOffset on the object. For surface extrude, if limit type is upto, this offset value is not used.
In case of Volume Extrude, if the up-to element is specified, this will act as offset value from the upto element.
- Parameters:
-
- oExtrude
- return value for CATScript applications, with (IDLRETVAL) function type
- See also:
-
- Returns:
- HRESULT S_OK if Ok
E_FAIL else
return error code for C++ Implementations
- See also:
-
-
Property Context() As
-
Returns or sets the context on Extrude feature.
Legal values:
- 0 This option creates surface of extrusion.
- 1 This option creates volume of extrusion.
Note: Setting volume result requires GSO License.
- Example:
-
This example retrieves in
oContext the context
for the Extrude1 hybrid shape feature.
Dim oContext
Set oContext = Extrude1.Context
-
Property Direction() As
-
Role: To get_Direction on the object.
- Parameters:
-
- oDir
- return value for CATScript applications, with (IDLRETVAL) function type
- See also:
-
- Returns:
- HRESULT S_OK if Ok
E_FAIL else
return error code for C++ Implementations
- See also:
-
-
Property EndOffset() As (Read Only)
-
Role: To get_EndOffset on the object. For surface extrude, if limit type is upto, this offset value is not used.
In case of Volume Extrude, if the up-to element is specified, this will act as offset value from the upto element.
- Parameters:
-
- oExtrude
- return value for CATScript applications, with (IDLRETVAL) function type
- See also:
-
- Returns:
- HRESULT S_OK if Ok
E_FAIL else
return error code for C++ Implementations
- See also:
-
-
Property ExtrudedObject() As
-
Role: To get_ExtrudedObject on the object.
- Parameters:
-
- oFaceToExtrude
- return value for CATScript applications, with (IDLRETVAL) function type
- See also:
-
- Returns:
- HRESULT S_OK if Ok
E_FAIL else
return error code for C++ Implementations

-
Property FirstLimitType() As
-
Returns or sets the First limit type.
Legal values:
- 0
- Unknown Limit type.
- 1
- Limit type is Dimension. It implies that limit is defined by length
- 2
- Limit type is UptoElement. It implies that limit is defined by a geometrical element
Example:
This example retrieves in oLim1Type the first limit type
for the Extrude hybrid shape feature.
Dim oLim1Type
Set oLim1Type = Extrude.FirstLimitType
Property FirstUptoElement() As
Returns or sets the First up-to element used to limit extrusion.
- Example:
-
This example retrieves in
Lim1Elem the First up-to element
for the Extrude hybrid shape feature.
Dim Lim1Elem As Reference
Set Lim1Elem = Extrude.FirstUptoElement
Property Orientation( iOrientation)
Gets or sets orientation of the extrude.
Orientation = TRUE : The natural orientation is taken.
= FALSE : The opposite orientation is taken
This example retrieves in IsInverted orientation of the extrude
for the Extrude hybrid shape feature.
Dim IsInverted As boolean
IsInverted = Extrude.Orientation
Property SecondLimitType() As
Returns or sets the Second limit type.
Legal values:
- 0
- Unknown Limit type.
- 1
- Limit type is Dimension. It implies that limit is defined by length
- 2
- Limit type is UptoElement. It implies that limit is defined by a geometrical element
Example:
This example retrieves in oLim2Type the second limit type
for the Extrude hybrid shape feature.
Dim oLim2Type
Set oLim2Type = Extrude.SecondLimitType
Property SecondUptoElement() As
Returns or sets the Second up-to element used to limit extrusion.
- Example:
-
This example retrieves in
Lim2Elem the Second up-to element
for the Extrude hybrid shape feature.
Dim Lim2Elem As Reference
Set Lim2Elem = Extrude.SecondUptoElement
Property SymmetricalExtension() As
Returns or Sets the Symmetrical Extension of Extrude (Limit 2 = -Limit 1).
- Parameters:
-
- iSym
- Symetry flag
