Method Detail

getToolMarkers

FlatSolid.ObjectDataCsys[] getToolMarkers()
                                   throws NXException,
                                          RemoteException

Returns an array of all the tool marker points assocated with the flat solid. The flat_solid_object is the CSYS associated with the flat solid. The formed_body_object is the datum CSYS feature that is on the formed body.
