The SW API allow to obtain a Sketch pointer from a Feature pointer with:

var sketch = (Sketch)feature.GetSpecificFeature2();

 

There is a way to obtain a Feature pointer from a Sketch pointer?

var sketch = modelDoc.GetActiveSketch2();
var feature = .......................;

Correct Answer

OK, simply:

 

var feature = (Feature)sketch;

 

VBA example:

 

Sub main()
    Dim app As SldWorks.SldWorks
    Dim doc As SldWorks.ModelDoc2
    Dim mgr As SldWorks.SelectionMgr
    Dim ft As SldWorks.Feature
    Dim sk As SldWorks.Sketch
   
    Set app = Application.SldWorks
    Set doc = app.ActiveDoc
    Set mgr = doc.SelectionManager
   
    Set ft = mgr.GetSelectedObject6(1, -1)
    Set sk = ft.GetSpecificFeature2
    Set ft = sk
   
    Debug.Print ft.Name
End Sub
