Role: This object may be, for example, the edge of a Pad resulting from the extrusion of a square. You will create a RectilinearTriDimFeatEdge object using the , , or method. Then, you pass it to the operator (such as ). The lifetime of a RectilinearTriDimFeatEdge object is limited, see .
- Example:
-
This example asks the end user to select a face, a rectilinear edge, and creates a hole.
The rectilinear edge specifies the hole direction. It may be a RectilinearTriDimFeatEdge, a RectilinearBiDimFeatEdge
or a RectilinearMonoDimFeatEdge.
