OdDbSurface Methods

	Name	Description
	acisIn	Reads the ACIS data for this entity from the specified StreamBuf object, or reads an array of ACIS solids from the specified file.
	acisOut	Writes the ACIS data of this entity to the specified StreamBuf object, or writes the specified ACIS solids to the specified file.
	body	Returns the current modeler geometry.
	booleanIntersect	This is the overview for the booleanIntersect method overload.
	booleanSubtract	This is the overview for the booleanSubtract method overload.
	booleanUnion	Performs a Boolean union operation with two surfaces: this one and another specified surface. Creates a new surface entity as a result.
	brep	Returns the boundary representation of the 3D solid entity.
	chamferEdges	Creates associative chamfers at the specified edges of the surface.
	convertToNurbSurface	Converts the surface to nurb surfaces.
	convertToRegion	Creates region (OdDbRegion class) entities for each face of the surface.
	createExtendSurface	This method is not implemented.
	createFilletSurface	This is the overview for the createFilletSurface method overload.
	createFrom	Creates an extruded surface from a 2D entity with thickness or a planar surface from a closed curve or region.
	createInterferenceObjects	Creates new entities that represent the result of interference between the surface and specified entity. Created entities are appended to the specified array.
	createOffsetSurface	This is the overview for the createOffsetSurface method overload.
	createSectionObjects	Intersects the specified plane with the surface and creates the intersection in a resulting array.
	decomposeForSave	Determines the behavior for custom objects when saving to .dwg or .dxf file.
	dwgInFields	OdDbObject methods
	dwgOutFields	Writes the .dwg file data of this object.
	dxfInFields	Reads the DXF data of this object.
	dxfOutFields	Writes the DXF data of this object.
	extendEdges	This method is not implemented.
	filletEdges	Creates rounded fillets along the specified edges of the surface.
	getArea	Calculates the total surface area.
	getFaceMesh	This is getFaceMesh, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	getPerimeter	Returns the current perimeter value of the surface.
	getSubentColor	This is getSubentColor, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	getSubentMaterial	This is getSubentMaterial, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	getSubentMaterialMapper	This is getSubentMaterialMapper, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	imprintEntity	Intersects the specified entity with the surface and imprints the intersection graph onto the surface. In the case of creating a closed loop of edges, a new face is created. In the case of creating an open loop of edges, it can be added as a spur to an existing loop on a face or as a slit in the face.
	internalSubentId	This method is implemented only for Spatial modeler and returns eNotImplementedYet status for other modelers.
	internalSubentPtr	This method is implemented only for Spatial modeler and returns eNotImplementedYet status for other modelers.
	isNull	Returns true if and only if there is no ACIS model associated with this entity.
	ODDB_DECLARE_MEMBERS	This is ODDB_DECLARE_MEMBERS, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	projectOnToSurface	Creates entities by projecting the specified entity along the projection direction to the surface.
	rayTest	Creates a ray which starts from a specified point and has a specified direction.
	setBody	Directly sets the contained modeler geometry of this entity.
	setSubentColor	This is setSubentColor, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	setSubentMaterial	This is setSubentMaterial, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	setSubentMaterialMapper	This is setSubentMaterialMapper, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	setUIsolineDensity	Sets the number of isolines in the U direction of the surface, displayed in wireframe mode for visualization.
	setVIsolineDensity	Sets the number of isolines in the V direction of the surface, displayed in wireframe mode for visualization.
	sliceByPlane	Slices the surface with the specified plane and sets the surface to be the portion on the positive normal side plane.
	sliceBySurface	Slices the surface with the specified surface.
	subExplode	This is subExplode, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	subGetClassID	overridables
	subGetGeomExtents	This is subGetGeomExtents, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	subGetGsMarkersAtSubentPath	This is subGetGsMarkersAtSubentPath, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	subGetSubentPathsAtGsMarker	This is subGetSubentPathsAtGsMarker, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	subGetTransformedCopy	This is subGetTransformedCopy, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	subHandOverTo	Called as the first operation of the handOverTo function.
	subSetAttributes	Sets the values of this object's subentity traits, and returns with the calling object's subentity traits.
	subSubentPtr	This is subSubentPtr, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	subTransformBy	This is subTransformBy, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	subViewportDraw	Takes a pointer to an OdGiViewportDraw objectand builds the view - specific representation of an entity.
	subWorldDraw	This is subWorldDraw, a member of class OdDbSurface.
	thicken	Creates a 3D solid object by thickening the surface by a specified amount.
	trimSurface	Trims a surface with specified cutting surfaces (curves). A surface can be trimmed by other surfaces or curves. When curves are used, the actual trimming boundary is formed by projecting the curves onto the surface, so the additional information of project direction needs to be provided.
	uIsolineDensity	Returns the number of isolines in the U direction of the surface, displayed in wireframe mode for visualization.
	vIsolineDensity	Returns the number of isolines in the V direction of the surface, displayed in wireframe mode for visualization.
