Edge length of evaluated face?
I'm trying to measure the boundary edge of an evaluated face. When using evFaceTangentPlane, if the face is not square, the evaluation will project where the face should be. I can place a plane on the invisible edge shown below with evFaceTangentPlane. However, I'm not sure how to get the length of the invisible edge. If I…

qSubtraction part edges vs sketch edges?
I'm trying to preform a qSubtraction by subtracting the edges of a face and desired excluded edges. The subtraction works when both selections are on a part, but it doesn't work when the selection is a sketch face and a sketch edge belonging to the sketch face. How would I preform a qSubtraction between the edges of a…

Vertex/edge/face IDs
I export part geometries (as STEP files) for use in 3D multibody simulations. I often add new connections to parts before simulation---to apply forces, add pulley or gear constraints, maybe sense motion---and these are ultimately based on the IDs of vertices, edges, or faces that I select from the STEP file geometries I…

Extrude, Keep Edges
If I extrude something like this, the edges disappear. What I mean is that I've specifically made cuts here that I want the extrude to keep. If that's not possible, then I'm not sure which workflow I should be using, cause this is a cabinet and when I attach the door to this cabinet in the assembly, I don't have the edge…

Get vertex from centre of circular edge selected in query
If I select a circular edge in a query, how do I locate the vertex at the center of that circle? I will be creating a coordinate system from it if it makes any difference to the best approach.

New point every(x) distance on line
I'm looking for a way to add a point using featurescript every x distance on a line...the tricky part is that the line doesn't have to be aligned to any certain axis, it could be askew to any axis. I'm sure there is some vector math that I am unaware of. Please point(hah!) me in the right direction! To clarify, lets assume…

get vertices for an edge query?
My feature queries for an edge, and I need to know the locations of its endpoints. How do I do that? (Apologies for the noob question, but I've been digging for twenty minutes and can't find it.)
