Represents a builder for a Features::Thicken feature.
This allows creation and editing of a Thicken feature which takes a set of faces and offsets them along their normals to create a solid body which has constant thickness. Since this can not be done precisely for the supported geometry types there is a tolerance to specify the accuracy of the result.
To create a new instance of this class, use Features::FeatureCollection::CreateThickenBuilder

Created in NX5.0.0.
Returns the "approximate offset surface" or "resolve self-intersections using patches" option.
The option to approximate offset surfaces for thickening operation is renamed to "resolve self-intersections using patches". This option is available for editing pre-NX8 thicken features only. The value set by the user for this option is ignored for thicken features created from NX8 onwards and its value will always be set to true internally for thicken features created in NX8 and later.

NXOpen::GeometricUtilities::BooleanOperation* NXOpen::Features::ThickenBuilder::BooleanOperation | ( | ) |
Returns the boolean operation.
The boolean operation associated with the Thicken feature
Created in NX5.0.0.
License requirements : None
Returns the faces to thicken.
A list of one or more faces to thicken.
Created in NX5.0.0.
License requirements : None
Returns the first offset.
The first offset for the Thicken feature. A positive value is applied along the normal of the face to be thickened. Negative values are applied in the opposite direction. The difference between the first and second offset must be non-zero.
Created in NX5.0.0.
License requirements : None
Returns the remove gashes option.
If the option is selected, Thicken will heal the input and attempt the operation on the healed input. If after healing the input, the Thicken operation succeeds, the Part Navigator will indicate as such with an information symbol and an entry in the Alert column.
Created in NX8.0.0.
License requirements : None
Returns the reverse direction.
A flag to indicate whether the offset direction is reversed with respect to the normal of the face to be thickened.
Created in NX5.0.0.
License requirements : None
Returns the second offset.
the second offset for the Thicken feature.
