class NXOpen.AxisCollection

Bases: object

Represents a collection of NXOpen.Axis.

Iterating this collection only returns live uncondemned objects contained in the owning part of the collection. Note that NXOpen.Axis is a smart object and many smart objects are condemned as they only exist to support other objects and are not displayed. To obtain an instance of this class, refer to NXOpen.BasePart
