API ProSolidOutlineCompute does not support excluding Surfaces

API ProSolidOutlineCompute does not support excluding Surfaces

1. Describe your environment: What is your industry? What is your role in your organization? Describe your stakeholders.
Agricultural Machinery. Software Engineer 


2. What version of Creo Parametric are you currently running?
Creo 7.0.4.1

3. Describe the problem you are trying to solve. Please include detailed documentation such as screenshots, images or video.
I am calculating the Bounding box using Toolkit API "ProSolidOutlineCompute". It has a way to exclude some of the features but is limited. More feature lists should be added to exclude the list ProSolidOutlExclTypes.

Also, the API name says Solid outline but includes nonsolid items, and PTC is not ready to accept this as an issue.

4. What is the use case for your organization?
Calculate the only SOLID bounding box which matches with Creo view bounding box.

5. What business value would your suggestion represent for your organization?
Calculating the accurate bounding box which matches with Creo view.
