Detailed Description

Represents a NXOpen.Features.IForm builder.

This class allows definition of iso-parameter curves on a face. These curves then can be shaped using NXOpen.GeometricUtilities.CurveShapingBuilder to finally shape the face.

To create a new instance of this class, use NXOpen.Features.FeatureCollection.CreateIformBuilder
