class
NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.ProfileSystemBuilder¶ Bases:
NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.FeatureParmsBuilderThis class is used to create or edit the information shared between all the Basic Design profile system features in the Ship Design application.
Currently this includes the following features:
NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.StiffenerSystem,NXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.PillarSystem, andNXOpen.Features.ShipDesign.EdgeReinforcement.To create a new instance of this class, use
NXOpen.Features.ShipCollection.CreateProfileSystemBuilder()New in version NX8.0.0.
