Example

from hwx import inspire

model = inspire.newModel()
cyl = model.createSolidCylinder()
inspire.orientView(direction="isometric")

features = cyl.features
cylSurfaces = [x for x in features if isinstance(x, inspire.FeatureCylindrical)]
print("Cylinder has " + str(len(cylSurfaces)) + " cylindrical areas")
print("One cylindrical area located at: " + str(cylSurfaces[0].location))
print("One cylindrical area with surface value: " + str(cylSurfaces[0].area))
