Hi Guys,

I just have two simple questions.
First, in NXOpen, there is a class named Sc Collector. Does the 'Sc' means selection?
Second, if i have a rectangular face with a hole in the middle (totally 5 edges ), how to get two loops of edges with one loop lists the outer four edges and the other loop lists the inner circular edge?

Thanks.

[li]There is a function: UF_modl_ask_face_loops, that looks like it will return the info you seek. However, there are some functions that will only work if you are using an 'unmanaged' language due to the data structures they return. I'm not sure, but this might be one of those functions. The alternative is to use the .GetEdges method and sort them out yourself; not fun, but doable.[/li][/ol]

It is a long time since I have done any CAM but Sc Collector belongs to NXOpen.CAM.GeometrySet Class.
