Hello,

I have some difficulties to select a face by name inside an assembly.

The component selection works fine, I can see it in solidworks itself (green selection color) but when I do the loop on all faces, the currentFaceName variable is always empty "".

But in Solidworks when I right click on any face, "Face properties" the name is well displayed ! 

Does anyone know what's going on ? 

Thanks

            string currentFaceName;

            SelectData swSelData = Document.SelectionManager.CreateSelectData();

            bool status1 = Document.Extension.SelectByID2(componentName, TemplateName.Component, 0, 0, 0, false, 0, null, 0);

            comp = Document.SelectionManager.GetSelectedObject6(1, -1);

            body = comp.GetBody();

            object[] tabFaces;

            tabFaces = body.GetFaces();

            for(int i=0; i

            {

                if (tabFaces[i] != null)

                {

                    currentFaceName = Document.GetEntityName(tabFaces[i]);

                    if (currentFaceName == faceName)

                    {

                        Entity ent = (Entity)tabFaces[i];

                        bool status = ent.Select4(false, swSelData);

                        if (!status)

                        {

                            throw new Exception("!!! Fail to select face in assembly : " + faceName);

                        }

                        break;

                    }

                }

            }
