Detailed Description

Represents a Feature Builder to be used in the creation and modification of features.

Feature Builders manage the steps needed to correctly create features on a part.
This is an abstract class, and cannot be instantiated.

Created in NX3.0.0.

Member Function Documentation

NXOpen::Features::Feature* NXOpen::Features::FeatureBuilder::CommitFeature ( )

Commits the feature parameters and creates the feature.

Returns: Created in NX3.0.0.

License requirements : solid_modeling ("SOLIDS MODELING") OR cam_base ("CAM BASE")

NXOpen::Features::Feature* NXOpen::Features::FeatureBuilder::GetFeature ( )

Returns the feature currently being edited by this builder.

If a new feature is being created, and the builder has not yet been commited, returns NULL.

Returns: Created in NX4.0.0.

License requirements : solid_modeling ("SOLIDS MODELING") OR cam_base ("CAM BASE")

void NXOpen::Features::FeatureBuilder::HideInternalParentFeatureAfterEdit ( NXOpen::Features::Feature * parentFeature )

Re-suppress an internal parent feature (a slave feature) after it has been edited.

Note that this method will do nothing if ShowInternalParentFeatureForEdit has not previously been called. Also note that this action will happen automatically when the feature builder is destroyed so calling this method is not strictly necessary.
Created in NX8.0.0.
