Cadcorp SIS API Methods

GetGeomPt Method

Description

Gets the position of a vertex from the geometry of the current open Item.

Syntax

Visual Basic
Public Function GetGeomPt( _
   ByVal nGeom As Long, _
   ByVal nPt As Long _
) As String

Parameters

nGeom
The index of the geometry component, starting at 0.
nPt
The index of the vertex, starting at 0.

Return Type

A comma-delimited string containing the x, y and z co-ordinates of the vertex. Use SplitPos to get the x, y and z values themselves.

Remarks

Use GetNumGeom to get the number of geometry components in an item.

Items such as blocks, groups, MultiLineStrings, and so on, can be made up of multiple geometry. Therefore the value of nGeom can be greater than 0. Items such as LineString items, polygons, symbols, and so on, are made by a single piece of geometry. Therefore the value would be 0.
