How to get outer FE free edge for any FE component ?

I tried different methods to get the outer FE free edge for given component like free edges with features by varying feature angles…

I couldn't get solid logic for scripting..

please let me know if there is any shortcut or procedure to detect outer edge of FE component.

Please consider this as a priority

Hello

You can use the python recording tool while using the Validate Free Edges tool to see the command used

Thanks for the reply, Jason_Craanen

But I am looking for different approach…

Is it possible to get only the outermost FE edge (border edge-square in the image you shared) not the inner hole FE edges?

Please consider as high priority…

No it finds all free edges. I know of no tool that will only find "external" edges
