Members of the FeaturePropertyConstants constant set (igLeft or igRight) that specify the side of the face on which the blend should be created.

Radius

Specifies the radius of the blend.

TrimInput

Specifies whether the input surface is trimmed (and therefore consumed).

TrimOutput

Specifies whether the output blend is trimmed to the input surfaces.

RollOnSet

Contains any edges that you want the blend to roll along.

TangentHoldLine

Contains IntersectionCurve or ProjectionCurve objects that define curves to which the blend is to be tangent.

UseFullRadius

Forces the blend to use whatever radius is necessary to make the Round tangent to the TangentHoldLine array. If this argument is True, the default radius is ignored.

BlendShapeType

Specifies the blend shape. Valid values are members of the BlendShapeConstants constant set.

BlendShapeValue

Specifies a blend shape value for values of BlendShapeType as follows: When BlendShapeType is igBlendShapeRatioChamfer or igBlendShapeConic, then BlendShapeValue can be any value greater than 0. When BlendShapeType is igBlendShapeG2Continuous, then BlendShapeValue can be any value greater than 0 and less than or equal to 10.
