Properties


o Property AnchorDirReverse() As
Returns the Sweep AnchorDirReverse flag (for Sweep Move Profile only).
It returns TRUE if Anchor direction is reversed , FALSE if not.
Returns:
oAnchorDirReverse The oAnchorDirReverse flag as a boolean
Example:
o Property CenterCurveElement() As
Returns or sets the center curve .
To set the property, you can use the following Boundary object: TriDimFeatEdge.
o Property CenterCurve() As (Read Only)
Returns the sketch used as the sweep center curve. The sweep is built along this sketch.
Example:
The following example returns in centerCurve the sketch used as center curve by the firstSweep sweep object: 
 Set centerCurve = firstSweep.CenterCurve
o Property IsThin() As
Returns the Sweep thin flag.
It returns TRUE if the Sweep is a thin Sweep , FALSE if not.
Returns:
oIsThin The thin flag as a boolean
Example:
The following example saves in thinFlag the thin flag of Sweep firstSweep, and then sets it so that it will be now thin : 
 Set thinFlag = firstSweep.IsThin
 firstSweep.IsThin = TRUE
o Property MergeEnd() As
Returns the Sweep merge end flag (for thin Sweep only).
It returns TRUE if merge ends is required , FALSE if not.
Returns:
oIsMergeEnd The merge end flag as a boolean
Example:
The following example saves in MergeEndFlag the merge end flag of Sweep firstSweep, and then sets it so that merge end will be required : 
 Set MergeEndFlag = firstSweep.IsMergeEnd
 firstSweep.IsMergeEnd = TRUE
o Property MergeMode() As
Returns or sets the end mode .
o Property MoveProfileToPath() As
Returns the Sweep MoveProfileToPath flag (for Sweep Move Profile only).
It returns TRUE if move profile is required , FALSE if not.
Returns:
oIsMoveProfileToPath The MoveProfileToPath flag as a boolean
Example:
o Property NeutralFiber() As
Returns the Sweep neutral fiber flag (for thin Sweep only).
It returns TRUE if the Sweep is a neutral fiber Sweep , FALSE if not.
Returns:
oIsNeutralFiber The neutral fiber flag as a boolean
Example:
The following example saves in NeutralFiberFlag the neutral fiber flag of Sweep firstSweep, and then sets it so that it will be now neutral fiber : 
 Set NeutralFiberFlag = firstSweep.IsNeutralFiber
 firstSweep.IsNeutralFiber = TRUE
o Property NormalAxisDirReverse() As
Returns the Sweep NormalAxisDirReverse flag (for Sweep Move Profile only).
It returns TRUE if Normal Axis direction is reversed , FALSE if not.
Returns:
oNormalAxisDirReverse The oNormalAxisDirReverse flag as a boolean
Example:
o Property PullingDirElement() As
Returns or sets the pulling direction .
To set the property, you can use one of the following Boundary objects: PlanarFace, RectilinearTriDimFeatEdge, RectilinearBiDimFeatEdge, RectilinearMonoDimFeatEdge.
o Property ReferenceSurfaceElement() As
Returns or sets the reference surface .
To set the property, you can use the following Boundary object: Face.
