model.extraDim(<tag>).selection();

Returns the selection of the feature (for features of type AttachDimension and Integration).

model.extraDim(<tag>).selection("point") returns the selection of points to attach (for features of type PointsToAttach).

model.extraDim(<tag>).properties() returns the list of assigned properties as a string array.

model.extraDim(<tag>).getType(<property>) returns the value of the specified property.

model.extraDim(<tag>).model() returns the model component node tag.
