Static Public Member Functions
static double	Compute (const ModelData::Model &theModel)
	Computes the surface area of the model.
static double	Compute (const ModelData::ModelElement &theModelElement)
	Computes the surface area of the model element. This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
static double	Compute (const ModelData::Body &theBody)
	Computes the surface area of the body. This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.
static double	Compute (const ModelData::Shape &theShape)
	Computes the surface area of the shape. This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

Detailed Description

Computes the surface area of objects.

The surface area can be computed either for an entire model or for any assembly/part/instance, body or shape.

Depending on the object contents, the surface area may not be computable. For instance, surface area cannot be computed for wireframe bodies.
