Property Index

Direction
Returns or Sets the direction from the reference point in which the point is computed.
Offset
Returns the geodesic length.
Point
Returns or Sets the reference point.
Surface
Returns or Sets the surface.

Properties


o Property Direction() As
Returns or Sets the direction from the reference point in which the point is computed.
Example
:
This example retrieves in oDirection the direction from the reference point for PointOnSurface feature. 
 Dim oDirection As CATIAHybridShapeDirection
 Set oDirection  = PointOnSurface.Direction
o Property Offset() As (Read Only)
Returns the geodesic length.
Example
:
This example retrieves in oGeodesicOffset the offset (Geodesic Length) from the reference point for PointOnSurface feature. 
 Dim oGeodesicOffset As CATIAReference
 Set oGeodesicOffset  = PointOnSurface.GeodesicOffset
o Property Point() As
Returns or Sets the reference point.
This data is not mandatory.
If no point is given, the middle point on the surface is taken.
Sub-element(s) supported (see Boundary object): Vertex.
Example
:
This example retrieves in oPointRef the reference point for PointOnSurface feature. 
 Dim oPointRef As CATIAReference
 Set oPointRef  = PointOnSurface.PointRef
o Property Surface() As
Returns or Sets the surface.
Sub-element(s) supported (see Boundary object): Face.
Example
:
This example retrieves in oSurface the supporting surface for PointOnSurface feature. 
 Dim oSurface As CATIAReference
 Set oSurface  = PointOnSurface.Surface
