Member Enumeration Documentation

enum NXOpen::Features::SheetMetal::LoftedFlangeBuilder::SectionSideOptions

This enum represents the side of the section that the lofted flange creates thickness.

The "left" option represents the side to the left of a person who is walking along the section in the direction of its curves when the section normal is pointing up. The "right" option represents the person's right hand side. This interpretation is the same regardless of whether the section is open or closed. The "right" side at any point along the section can also be represented by the vector resulting from the cross product of the curve tangent (of the section curve at that point) and the section normal. The "left" side is the opposite.

Enumerator:

SectionSideOptionsLeft	Side pointed to by the inverse of the tangent cross normal vector.
SectionSideOptionsRight	Side pointed to by the tangent cross normal vector.
