Journal: How to find out if a feature is a product interface?

[CNSZU]

Hi,

I have

 partFeatures = aPart.Features.GetFeatures

to get an array of the features in the part. The problem is, some of the features in partFeatures are product interface features, and there is no way to tell if they are standard features, like sketches and extrudes, or product interface features.

Now, if I have

 aPart.ProductInterface.CreateObjectBuilder.QueryProductInterfaceObjects(aPart)

I get an array of InterfaceObject, which tells me which features they reference, but there is still no way to deduce which features are product interfaces.

The reason I need to know is I'm trying to write a program that checks if the last feature is current, and display a warning if it isn't. The ufs.Modl.AskCurrentFeature(aPart.Tag, outFeatureTag) will give the current feature, but it's not possible to tell if it's the last feature because sometimes the last feature is a product interface, which I want to ignore.

I might have found a solution using

    ufs.Modl.IsBrowseableFeature(lastFeature.Tag, True, True, is_browseable)

From the little testing I did, it seems that if the result of is_browseable is false, then the feature is a product interface (and thus can be ignored). I have no idea what a browseable feature is, but it seems to be working in this situation.
