getEdge	Get an edge on a 3D solid.	manual

Get an edge on a 3D solid.

getEdge(tag: String, extrude_group: ExtrudeGroup) -> Uuid

Examples

const box = startSketchOn('XY')
  |> startProfileAt([0, 0], %)
  |> line([0, 10], %)
  |> line([10, 0], %)
  |> line([0, -10], %, 'revolveAxis')
  |> close(%)
  |> extrude(10, %)

const sketch001 = startSketchOn(box, "revolveAxis")
  |> startProfileAt([5, 10], %)
  |> line([0, -10], %)
  |> line([2, 0], %)
  |> line([0, 10], %)
  |> close(%)
  |> revolve({
       axis: getEdge('revolveAxis', box),
       angle: 90
     }, %)
