(Inherited from Face.)
Public methodGetHashCode
Gets the integer value of the geometry object as hash code
(Inherited from GeometryObject.)
Public methodGetRegions
Gets the face regions (created, for example, by the Split Face command) of the face.
(Inherited from Face.)
Public methodGetSurface
Returns a copy of this face's surface.
(Inherited from Face.)
Public methodGetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodIntersect(Curve)
Calculates the intersection of the specified curve with this face.
(Inherited from Face.)
Public methodIntersect(Face)
Calculates the intersection of the specified face with this face and returns the intersection results.
(Inherited from Face.)
Public methodIntersect(Curve, IntersectionResultArray%)
Calculates the intersection of the specified curve with this face and returns the intersection results.
(Inherited from Face.)
Public methodIntersect(Face, Curve%)
Calculates the intersection of the specified face with this face and returns the intersection results.
(Inherited from Face.)
Public methodIsInside(UV)
Indicates whether the specified point is within this face.
(Inherited from Face.)
Public methodIsInside(UV, IntersectionResult%)
Indicates whether the specified point is within this face and outputs additional information about the point location.
(Inherited from Face.)
Public methodProject
Projects the specified point on the face.
(Inherited from Face.)
Public methodToString
Returns a string that represents the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodTriangulate()()()()
Returns a triangular mesh approximation to the face.
(Inherited from Face.)
Public methodTriangulate(Double)
Returns a triangular mesh approximation to the face.
(Inherited from Face.)

Properties

  NameDescription
Public propertyArea
The area of this face.
(Inherited from Face.)
Public propertyCurve
Profile curves of the surface.
Public propertyEdgeLoops
A collection of edge loops. Each edge loop represents one of the closed boundaries of the face.
(Inherited from Face.)
Public propertyGraphicsStyleId
The ElementId of the GeometryObject's GraphicsStyle
(Inherited from GeometryObject.)
Public propertyHasRegions
Identifies if the face contains regions (which can be created, for example, by the Split Face command).
(Inherited from Face.)
Public propertyId
A unique integer identifying the GeometryObject in its associated non view-specific GeometryElement.
(Inherited from GeometryObject.)
Public propertyIsCyclic
Indicates whether the underlying surface is periodic in the specified parametric direction.
(Inherited from Face.)
Public propertyIsElementGeometry
Indicates whether this geometry is obtained directly from an Element.
(Inherited from GeometryObject.)
Public propertyIsExtruded
Determines if this is an extruded ruled surface.
Public propertyIsReadOnly
Identifies if the object is read-only or modifiable.
(Inherited from APIObject.)
Public propertyIsTwoSided
Determines if a face is two-sided (degenerate).
(Inherited from Face.)
Public propertyMaterialElementId
The element ID of the material from which this face is composed.
(Inherited from Face.)
Public propertyOrientationMatchesSurfaceOrientation
Returns true if this face's orientation matches the orientation of the face's surface, false if they have opposite orientations.
(Inherited from Face.)
