# Method Detail

## GetMarkingLineInformation

`MarkingLineDesignBuilder.``GetMarkingLineInformation`

  Get the information from the marking line feature to create a fillet type welding joint.

  Specifically the target and placement faces

  Signature `GetMarkingLineInformation(curve)`

  Parameters:

  curve (`NXOpen.ICurve`) –
  1. - Marking line curve.

  Returns: | a tuple
  Return type: | A tuple consisting of (placementFaces, targetFaces). placementFaces is a list of `NXOpen.Face`. (OF) - a set of cutting side faces that place marking line targetFaces is a list of `NXOpen.Face`. (OF) - a set of molding faces that generated the marking line
