SPAlop Global Function api_extend_sheetbody

outcome api_extend_sheetbody(	ENTITY_LIST	`edgeList`,
	const double&	`fOffsetDistance`,
	const SPAposition&	`boxLow`,
	const SPAposition&	`boxHigh`,
	lop_options*	`pLopts`,
	AcisOptions*	`ao`	`= NULL`)

Extends the input list of edges from a sheet body by offsetting those along the surfaces by the given distance.

Role: The boundary edges of the sheet body provided in the edgeList argument is extended by the specified offset distance. The distance can be positive or negative.
The resulting offset edge is defined at the offset distance, and the distance is measured perpendicularly to the original edge, not arclength on the surface it lies. The surfaces extend naturally, not linearly. Vent edges may be added to tangential two-edge vertices. The edge must be the limit of the sheet body. Any interior edges are ignored.

Effect: Changes model

Parameters:

edgeList: List of edges to modify.
fOffsetDistance: Distance in xyz space to be offset or extended, positive or negative.
boxLow: Start of intersection box to be used.
boxHigh: End of intersection box to be used.
pLopts: Local operations options for behavior control.
ao: ACIS options.
