Solid Edge Part Type Library
AddLoftedProtrusion Method
Solid Edge Part Type Library > Models Collection : AddLoftedProtrusion Method
Specifies the number of Section objects used in the construction of the lofted protrusion feature.
The size of the array is equal to the value of NumSections.
The size of the array is equal to the value of NumSections. The two cross-section types are igProfileBasedCrossSection and igEdgeBasedCrossSection constants.
The size of the array is equal to the value of NumSections. For models that are created with periodic cross-sections that include objects such as circles, ellipses, and closed B-Splines, Solid Edge automatically selects the traverse points, so the value of Origins may be set to 0,0 or the cross-sections can be skipped without the origins defined. If the origins are not defined for a cross-section, make sure the cross-section is counted in the array, so that the other cross-sections origins are represented correctly to in the array.

Parameters
NumSections
Specifies the number of Section objects used in the construction of the lofted protrusion feature.
CrossSections
The size of the array is equal to the value of NumSections.
CrossSectionTypes
The size of the array is equal to the value of NumSections. The two cross-section types are igProfileBasedCrossSection and igEdgeBasedCrossSection constants.
Origins
The size of the array is equal to the value of NumSections. For models that are created with periodic cross-sections that include objects such as circles, ellipses, and closed B-Splines, Solid Edge automatically selects the traverse points, so the value of Origins may be set to 0,0 or the cross-sections can be skipped without the origins defined. If the origins are not defined for a cross-section, make sure the cross-section is counted in the array, so that the other cross-sections origins are represented correctly to in the array.

Remarks
Typically, this method is used to create a protrusion that is to be the base feature for a model. Additional lofted protrusions added to the model are created through methods that belong to the model's LoftedProtrusions collection object. This method fails if called more than one time because only one base feature (or Model) is valid in a Part file.
