Solid Edge Part Type Library
Add Method
Solid Edge Part Type Library > Ribs Collection : Add Method
Specifies the Profile object by which the rib is to be constructed.
Member of the FeaturePropertyConstants constant set that specifies whether or not the profile is to be extended to the plane.
Member of the FeaturePropertyConstants constant set that specifies whether the thickness is to be applied normal to the profile plane or into the profile plane.
Member of the FeaturePropertyConstants constant set that specifies in which direction the rib material is to be added.
Member of the FeaturePropertyConstants constant set that specifies if the rib thickness is to be applied symmetrically or to one side of the profile.
Specifies the thickness of the rib.
Specifies a distance to extend the rib from the profile.
Description
Adds an occurrence of the referenced object.
