AnalyticalModelSurface.GetLoops

Description:
Retrieves Analytical Model Loops with respect to the loopType.

Remarks:
For multiple concentric loops, only the outermost loop will be considered External. All other loops will be considered Internal.

public IList<CurveLoop> GetLoops(
	AnalyticalLoopType loopType
)

Public Function GetLoops ( _
	loopType As AnalyticalLoopType _
) As IList(Of CurveLoop)

public:
