Synopsis
PDX_MSGT gdx_FaceExtractSurface(long option, double u0, double u1, double v0, double v1, double devtol, PDX_BOOL *parm_change, MDA_PTR gdx_face_ptr)
Purpose
Extract the surface in a face.
Description
Extract a surface in a face. The surface will be replaced in the face. The original surface will be deleted is this face is the only parent. If a parm change occurs, then the parm curves will be deleted
Input
option
Options (Not Used)
u0
The u-directional extraction start parameter.
u1
The u-directional extraction end parameter. If u0 > u1, then the surface must be closed in the u-direction, and the resulting subsurface will include the u-seam (and portions of the surface to either side of the u-seam).
v0
The v-directional extraction start parameter.
v1
The v-directional extraction end parameter. If u0 > v1, then the surface must be closed in the v-direction, and the resulting subsurface will include the v-seam (and portions of the surface to either side of the v-seam).
devtol
Tolerance used during extraction of surface
gdx_face_ptr
DB pointer of face with surface to be extracted
Output
parm_change
Flag indicating the parameterization of the new surface is different than the old surface. Parm curves will be deleted from the face.
gdx_face_ptr
Face with extracted surface
