Solid Edge Geometry Type Library
Edges Property
Description
Returns a collection of edges of a specified type that belong to a model, a feature, or a topology collection of faces.
Property type
Read-only property
Syntax
Visual Basic
Public Property Edges As Object
Remarks
The result of the Edges property is a topology collection. This topology collection is a temporary collection and is overwritten the next time the Edges, Faces, or FacesByRay property is used. By default, the Edges property returns all edges for the object. The topology collection can be restricted to a specified type of edge by supplying a value (from the FeatureTopologyQueryTypeConstants constant set) for the EdgeType argument for the feature objects only. For example, this property can be set to return all ellipse edges, straight edges, and so forth.
Example
Private Sub Form_Load()
    Dim objApp As solidedgeframework.Application
    Dim objDoc As SolidEdgepart.PartDocument
    Dim objBody As solidedgegeometry.Body
    Dim objFace As solidedgegeometry.Face
    Dim objFEdges As Object
    Const TESTFILE = "T:\vbtests\testcases\FreeForm.par"
    ' Report errors
    Const PI = 3.14159265358979
    ' Create/get the application with specific settings
    On Error Resume Next
    Set objApp = GetObject(, "SolidEdge.Application")
    If Err Then
        Err.Clear
        Set objApp = CreateObject("SolidEdge.Application")
        Set objDoc = objApp.Documents.Add("SolidEdge.PartDocument")
        objApp.Visible = True
    Else
        Set objDoc = objApp.ActiveDocument
    End If
    Call objDoc.Close
    ' opening the testfile
    Set objDoc = objApp.Documents.Open(TESTFILE)
    ' getting the body object of the model
    Set objBody = objDoc.Models(1).Body
    ' getting a particular face from the collection of faces on the body
    Set objFace = objBody.Faces(FaceType:=igQueryAll).Item(1)
    ' getting the Edges collection object for a Face
    Set objFEdges = objFace.Edges
    ' USER DISPLAY
    ' Release objects
    Set objApp = Nothing
    Set objDoc = Nothing
    Set objBody = Nothing
    Set objFace = Nothing
    Set objFEdges = Nothing
