Detect sheet metal part

[Hansjoerg]

I am looking for a way to query if a part contains a sheet metal feature.

For weldments there is a command isWeldment which allows to easily query if the feater tree contains a weldment feature without traversing the structure.

Is there something like this for sheet metal features?

From a suggestion I received some time ago, this works well for my application.

Code: Select all

// c# code
bool isSheetMetal = swModel.GetBendState() > 0;
return isSheetMetal;

Edit to add:
It returns an enumeration telling what state the sheet metal part is in:

Great!

Works even if the sheet metal part contains no bends at all

Thanks for this tip
