	double orientation
)

Visual Basic

Public Shared Function Create ( _
	surfaceName As String, _
	baseSurfaceId As ObjectId, _
	comparisonSurfaceId As ObjectId, _

static ObjectId Create(
	String^ surfaceName, 
	ObjectId baseSurfaceId, 
	ObjectId comparisonSurfaceId, 
	double spacingX, 
	double spacingY, 
	double orientation
)

Parameters

surfaceName
Type: System.String
The name of the new GridVolumeSurface.
baseSurfaceId
Type: ObjectId
The ObjectId of the base surface for the GridVolumeSurface.
comparisonSurfaceId
Type: ObjectId
The ObjectId of the comparison (top) surface for the GridVolumeSurface.
spacingX
Type: System.Double
The x spacing of the GridVolumeSurface.
spacingY
Type: System.Double
The y spacing of the GridVolumeSurface.
orientation
Type: System.Double
The orientation of the GridVolumeSurface.

Remarks

This method uses the default style for the surface so you don't need to provide a style ObjectId.

Exceptions

ExceptionCondition
System.ArgumentException Thrown when:
  1. The surfaceName is empty.
  2. The baseSurfaceId is invalid or its type is not Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices.Surface.
  3. The comparisonSurfaceId is invalid or its type is not Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices.Surface.
  4. The spacingX or spacingY is less than or equal to 0.0.
