Methods¶
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| Commit | Commits any edits that have been applied to the builder. |
| CommitFeature | Commits the feature parameters and creates the feature |
| Destroy | Deletes the builder, and cleans up any objects created by the builder. |
| GetCommittedObjects | For builders that create more than one object, this method returns the objects that are created by commit. |
| GetFeature | Returns the feature currently being edited by this builder. |
| GetObject | Returns the object currently being edited by this builder. |
| HideInternalParentFeatureAfterEdit | Re-suppress an internal parent feature (a slave feature) after it has been edited. |
| 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 |
| Validate | Validate whether the inputs to the component are sufficient for commit to be called. |
