    Create(Builder) Method
    In This Topic
    Creates new features copied parallel to the selected features in the ParallelOffset.Selection. A ParallelOffset is created from the input builder.
    Syntax
    public void Create( 
       ParallelOffset.Builder builder
    )
    Public Overloads Sub Create( _
       ByVal builder As ParallelOffset.Builder _
    ) 

    Parameters

    builder
    The parallel offset builder to use in the create
    Example
