| ShowInternalParentFeatureForEdit | Unsuppress an internal parent feature (a slave feature) so it can be edited. |
| ShowResults | Updates the model to reflect the result of an edit to the model for all builders that support showing results. |
| UnsetParentFeatureInternal | Set the internal parent feature of the feature being edited to external |
| Validate | Validate whether the inputs to the component are sufficient for commit to be called. |
Enumerations¶
| FillAreaBuilderTypes Enumeration | Identifies the area of the casting the fill is targeted for. |
| FillAreaBuilderUpperLimitTypes Enumeration | Specifies how the upper limit of the fill area is defined. |

Method Detail¶
Validate¶
-
FillAreaBuilder.Validate¶ Validate whether the inputs to the component are sufficient for commit to be called.
If the component is not in a state to commit then an exception is thrown. For example, if the component requires you to set some property, this method will throw an exception if you haven’t set it. This method throws a not-yet-implemented NXException for some components.
Signature
Validate()Returns: Was self validation successful Return type: bool New in version NX3.0.1.
