Member Enumeration Documentation

enum NXOpen::SketchAlongPathBuilder::PlaneOrientationType

Indicates the orientation of the plane.

Enumerator
PlaneOrientationTypeNormalToPath	Normal to Path.
PlaneOrientationTypeNormalToVector	Normal to Vector.
PlaneOrientationTypeParallelToVector	Parallel to Vector.
PlaneOrientationTypeThroughAxis	Through Axis.

enum NXOpen::SketchAlongPathBuilder::SketchOrientationType

Indicates the sketch orientation method.

For the sketch orientation type is 'Automatic': two set of datum axes are created if the path contains a shared edge, one set of each face. For laminar edge one set of datum axes is created. If the path contains only wireframe the two set of axes are created. For the sketch orientation type is 'Relative to face': one set of datum axes is craeted using the orienting faces For the sketch orientation type is 'Use curve parameter': one set of datum axes is created using the the curve parameter

Enumerator
SketchOrientationTypeAutomatic	Automatic.
SketchOrientationTypeRelativeToFace	Relative to face.
SketchOrientationTypeUseCurveParameters	Based on curve parameter.
