Face

2-D boundary.

Role: This Boundary object may be, for example, the lateral face of

cylinder.

You will create a Face object using the Shapes.GetBoundary ,

HybridShapes.GetBoundary , Sketches.GetBoundary or Selection.SelectElement2

method. Then, you pass it to the operator (such as

ShapeFactory.AddNewFaceFillet ).

The lifetime of a Face object is limited, see Boundary.

See also:

PlanarFace , CylindricalFace .

Example:

This example asks the end user to select two faces, and creates a face-face

fillet on these faces:

Dim InputObjectType(0)

Set Document = CATIA.ActiveDocument

Set Selection = Document.Selection

‘We propose to the user that he select the first face

InputObjectType(0)=”Face”

Status=Selection.SelectElement2(InputObjectType,”Select the first

face”,true)

if (Status = “cancel”) then Exit Sub

Set FirstFace = Selection.Item(1).Value

Selection.Clear

‘We propose to the user that he select the second face

InputObjectType(0)=”Face”

Status=Selection.SelectElement2(InputObjectType,”Select the second

face”,true)

if (Status = “cancel”) then Exit Sub

Set SecondFace = Selection.Item(1).Value

Set FaceFillet = ShapeFactory.AddNewFaceFillet(FirstFace,SecondFace,5.0)
