Hello everybody

there is this example related to Get Mates and Mate Entities Example (VB)...from the API Help

                Debug.Print "    " & swSubFeat.Name

                Debug.Print "      Type         = " & swMate.Type

                Debug.Print "      AlignFlag    = " & swMate.alignment

                Debug.Print "      CanBeFlipped = " & swMate.CanBeFlipped

                Debug.Print ""

what is the meaning of align flag and canbe flipped, what are the possible value it can return. what is the meaning of it.

                Debug.Print "      MateEntType  = " & swMateEnt(i).ReferenceType

                Debug.Print "      (x,y,z)      = (" & swMateEnt(i).EntityParams(0) & ", " & swMateEnt(i).EntityParams(1) & ", " & swMateEnt(i).EntityParams(2) & ")"

                Debug.Print "      (i,j,k)      = (" & swMateEnt(i).EntityParams(3) & ", " & swMateEnt(i).EntityParams(4) & ", " & swMateEnt(i).EntityParams(5) & ")"

                Debug.Print "      Radius 1     = " & swMateEnt(i).EntityParams(6)

                Debug.Print "      Radius 2     = " & swMateEnt(i).EntityParams(7)

can anybody explain what values will be return for (x,y,z) and (i,j,k). is it the point where we select the plane for mating purpose??

when does the program return the value of radius 2?

please can anybody help...

will be greatful...
