G'day Guys,

I had a search and couldn't find any details on how to create a transformation between a face & a plane.

What I would like to do, is move a body, So that a point is on origin, an edge on the Top plane & the Face coincident to the front plane.

Any help would greatly appreciated.

Code below doesn't help, As I have no idea of the correct methods to use.

Public Function BoundingBox(ByVal aBody As Body2) As Double()
        'Dim AcDoc As ModelDoc2 = swApp.ActiveDoc
        'Dim aBody As Body2 = Nothing ' ToDo :Get a really body.
        Dim Xdist, Ydist, Zdist As Double
        For Each obFace As Face2 In aBody.GetFaces 
            If obFace.IGetSurface.IsPlane Then 'Face is not planaer, so align will not work
                Try
                    Dim refEdge As Edge = obFace.IGetEdges
                    Dim newBody As Body2 = aBody.ICopy() 
                    'Aim Rotate body, based on obface so that one point is on origin & the face is coincident with front plane.
                    'Then Align a edge to the Top plane.
                    'newBody.GetCoincidenceTransform(
                    'if can get transform of face, delta that of front plane = new transform.
                    'http://help.solidworks.com/2013/English/api/sldworksapi/Get_the_Normal_and_Origin_of_a_Reference_Plane_Using_Its_Transform_Example_VB.htm 
                    Dim Transform As New MathTransform 'Has 16 elements
                    '           Dim Vector1 As New MathVector
                    '          Transform.ISetData = transformdata 
                    newBody.ApplyTransform(Transform)
                    Dim Box() As Double = TryCast(newBody.GetBodyBox, Double()) 'x,y,z,x1,y1,z1
   'newbody.dispose 'Dispose of temp body
                Catch ex As Exception
                End Try
            End If
        Next
        Return Nothing
    End Function
