Envelopes & API

Is it possible to get the square footage for a particular face of an envelope?



We are considering using envelopes to define different areas of our plant and using those envelopes for various reasons, mostly for selecting items inside or outside the envelope, but we also want to be able to calculate the square footage that a given envelope covers.



Thanks for any suggesstions,



Sam


It depends on how you acquire the face. If the face is manually selected, it should be possible to acquire via Selection Manager object.

Do some experiments. Traverse the components and see how envelopes behave.

Try Face2::GetArea
