Does anyone know the NXOpen .NET nomenclature for creating an assembly clearance set which has a facet based analysis and then run the clerance analysis on that set and output whether or not there is interference (no details, just go-no go)?

Thanks.

Are you sure the facet bodies will give you the resolution you need? I have seen situations where a facet body clearance analysis reported interferences where there were actually none (and vice versa).
 
Well I would try with solids and factes and see how each works out, but the problem is figuring out the coding for setting these options and calling the clearance check function.
 
Also along these lines, right now I check to see if something is a body in NXOpen by using:

b.issolidbody (where b is type body).

Can anyone tell me how to find out if the body is a faceted body
