RectilinearTriDimFeatEdge

1-D boundary belonging to a feature whose topological result is three
dimensional, the boundary having a rectilinear geometry.
Role: This Boundary object may be, for example, the edge of a Pad resulting
from the extrusion of a square.
You will create a RectilinearTriDimFeatEdge object using the Shapes.GetBoundary
, HybridShapes.GetBoundary , Sketches.GetBoundary or Selection.SelectElement2
method. Then, you pass it to the operator (such as Hole.SetDirection
).
The lifetime of a RectilinearTriDimFeatEdge object is limited, see
Boundary.

Example:
This example asks the end user to select a face, a rectilinear edge, and
creates a hole. The rectilinear edge specifies the hole direction. It may be a
RectilinearTriDimFeatEdge, a RectilinearBiDimFeatEdge or a
RectilinearMonoDimFeatEdge.
