All Known Implementing Classes:
CADFace

public interface CADFace extends X3DProductStructureChildNode, X3DBoundedObject
CADFace holds geometry representing one face in a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) CADPart.

Warning: this is an abstract interface that cannot be instantiated as a concrete object. Java programmers typically only need to use concrete objects provided by the org.web3d.x3d.jsail classes. X3D node tooltip: (X3D version 3.1 or later) [X3DProductStructureChildNode,X3DBoundedObject,X3DVisibleObject] CADFace holds geometry representing one face in a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) CADPart. CADFace can only contain a single Shape or LOD node (with containerField='shape'). Warning: only zero or one Shape child is allowed to be active at one time.
