GeometryObject
.)
|
|
|
Evaluate |

|
|
|
GetSurface |
Returns a copy of this face's surface.
|
|
|
GetType |
Gets the
Type
of the current instance.
(Inherited from
Object
.)
|
|
|
Intersect(Curve) |
Calculates the intersection of the specified curve with this face.
|
|
|
Intersect(Face) |
Calculates the intersection of the specified face with this face and returns the intersection results.
|
|
|
Intersect(Curve, IntersectionResultArray ) |
Calculates the intersection of the specified curve with this face and returns the intersection results.
|
|
|
Intersect(Face, Curve ) |
Calculates the intersection of the specified face with this face and returns the intersection results.
|
|
|
IsInside(UV) |
Indicates whether the specified point is within this face.
|
|
|
IsInside(UV, IntersectionResult ) |
Indicates whether the specified point is within this face and outputs additional information about the point location.
|
|
|
Project |
Projects the specified point on the face.
|
|
|
ToString |
Returns a string that represents the current object.
(Inherited from
Object

|
|
|
Triangulate |
Returns a triangular mesh approximation to the face.
|
|
|
Triangulate(Double) |
Returns a triangular mesh approximation to the face.
|
Properties
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
Area |
The area of this face.
|
|
|
EdgeLoops |
A collection of edge loops. Each edge loop represents one of the closed boundaries of the face.
|
|
|
GraphicsStyleId |
The ElementId of the GeometryObject's GraphicsStyle
(Inherited from
GeometryObject
.)
|
|
|
HasRegions |
Identifies if the face contains regions (which can be created, for example, by the Split Face command).
|
|
|
Id |
A unique integer identifying the GeometryObject in its associated non view-specific GeometryElement.
(Inherited from
GeometryObject
.)
|
|
|
IsCyclic |
Indicates whether the underlying surface is periodic in the specified parametric direction.
|
|
|
IsElementGeometry |
Indicates whether this geometry is obtained directly from an Element.
(Inherited from
GeometryObject
.)
|
|
|
IsReadOnly |
Identifies if the object is read-only or modifiable.
(Inherited from
APIObject
.)
|
|
|
IsTwoSided |
Determines if a face is two-sided (degenerate).
|
|
|
MaterialElementId |
The element ID of the material from which this face is composed.
|
|
|
OrientationMatchesSurfaceOrientation |
Returns true if this face's orientation matches the orientation of the face's surface,
false if they have opposite orientations.
|
|
|
Period |
The period of the underlying surface in the specified parametric direction.
|
|
|
Reference |
