Detailed Description

Represents a NXOpen::Features::BridgeCurve builder.

Use NXOpen::Features::BridgeCurveBuilderEx to create, shape and constrain bridges curves between curves, points, surfaces or surface edges. The builder can also create symmetric bridge curves across a datum plane, datum axis or a vector representing a plane. For more details see the NX documentation for Bridge Curves.
