WebLink - EvalOutline

[orac]

Hi,

I'm trying to determine the maximum dimensions of a part using EvalOutline.
However the resulting dimensions are slightly heigher than they should be.
Manual calculation of the bounding box diagonal by using the points obtained by EvalOutline gives the same result as the function Model Size within the Pro/E menus.

I'm wondering how I can obtain the correct results.

Any help/suggestion is welcome.

Best regards,

John Bijnens

Hi,


I think I used pfcModel.GeomOutline instead of EvalOutline.


Some months ago I worked on that and I think GeomOutline calculates the solid geomwhile EvalOutline calculates the shape of the datum planes...
