unsafe bool NXOpen.Features.StudioSplineBuilderEx.CanUseOrientationTool

getset

Returns or sets the flag indicating if WCS like tool should be deployed when a point or pole handle is selected

Created in NX8.5.1

License requirements to get this property: None.

unsafe NXOpen.Features.GeometricConstraintDataManager NXOpen.Features.StudioSplineBuilderEx.ConstraintManager

get

Returns the constraint manager.

Constraint manager allows user to define points or poles (G0) and assign constraints such as tangent(G1), curvature(G2) and flow(G3). The constraint objects are derived from NXOpen.SmartObject . E.g. Point constraint is of type NXOpen.Point or tangent constraint is of type NXOpen.Direction . These constraint objects are owned by the features. Thus the life span of the constraints is exactly same as the feature. When referencing objects from other features, user should always create an associative copy. E.g. when referencing a point of a NXOpen.Features.PointFeature , user should create another NXOpen.Point that references point of NXOpen.Features.PointFeature .
