OperationCreateConicalBentPlateByFaces Method (Part, IListPoint, Part, IListPoint, Double, Double)

Modifies the first plate by adding a conical bend that connects it to the second plate creating a new BentPlate instance based on two parts, selected faces in each part and radius. This method can change GUID when using from plug-ins. To keep GUID, use AddLeg(ConnectiveGeometry, LineSegment, ConnectiveGeometry, LineSegment, Double).

face2: Type: System.Collections.GenericIListPoint
The selected face on the second part.
largestRadius: Type: SystemDouble
The largest target radius for the created conical section.
halfAperture: Type: SystemDouble
Angle between a generatrix of the cone and its center line (i.e. axis)

Return Value

Type: BentPlate
The bent plate object if successful, null otherwise.
