Methods

Method Description
CreateUserDefinedObject Constructs a new NXOpen.Features.UserDefinedObjectFeature.
GetLinksToObject Queries an NX Object to find all UserDefinedObjects.UserDefinedObject’s that are linked to the given NXObject (note this will not find owning udos)
GetOwningUserDefinedObject Queries an NX Object to find the UserDefinedObjects.UserDefinedObject that owns the given NXObject (note this will return null for the owning udo if the object is not owned)
GetUdosOfClass Finds all UserDefinedObjects.UserDefinedObject instances that use the given NXOpen.UserDefinedObjects.UserDefinedClass.
IsObjectLinkable Queries an NX Object to see if it can be linked to a UserDefinedObjects.UserDefinedObject via the given link type
IsObjectLinkedToUserDefinedObject Queries an NX Object to see if it is linked to a UserDefinedObjects.UserDefinedObject (note this will not tell you if the object is owned by a UDO with an owning link)
