HideInternalParentFeatureAfterEdit Re-suppress an internal parent feature (a slave feature) after it has been edited.
SetInterpartSourceEdge Sets the interpart source edge
SetParentFeatureInternal Set the parent features which would be internal or slaves to the feature being created or commited
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
