ConfigurationColumn Object Preview

Derived from: Base Object
Defined in namespace "adsk::fusion" and the header file is <Fusion/Configurations/ConfigurationColumn.h>

PreviewThis functionality is provided as a preview of intended future API capabilities. You are encouraged to use it and report any problems or suggestions using the Fusion API and Scripts forum.

Because this is a preview of future functionality, there is the possibility that it will change, which will possibly break any existing programs that use this functionality. Because of that, you should never deliver any programs that use any preview capabilities. For a distributed program, you should wait until it has moved from preview to released state.

Description

Represents a column in a configuration table. This is the base class for the more specific column types. The "Name" column is not considered a standard column but is a value associated with each table row.

Methods

Name Description
classType Static function that all classes support that returns the type of the class as a string. The returned string matches the string returned by the objectType property. For example if you have a reference to an object and you want to check if it's a SketchLine you can use myObject.objectType == fusion.SketchLine.classType().
deleteMe Deletes this column from the table. Property columns cannot be deleted. If the table was obtained from a DataFile, this method will fail.

Properties

Name Description
id The id of the column. This is constant and cannot be changed by the user.
index The index position of this column within the table. The first column is at index 0 and does not include the "Name" column.
isValid Indicates if this object is still valid, i.e. hasn't been deleted or some other action done to invalidate the reference.
objectType This property is supported by all objects in the API and returns a string that contains the full name (namespace::objecttype) describing the type of the object.

It's often useful to use this in combination with the classType method to see if an object is a certain type. For example: if obj.objectType == adsk.core.Point3D.classType():
rowCount Returns the number of rows in this column.
title The title of this column. In a top table, this can only be edited for suppression, visibility, parameter, and theme table columns. It behaves as read-only for all other types. In a theme table, the title of all the columns can be modified except for the column that represents the root component for materials and appearances.

If the table was obtained from a DataFile, this property behaves as read-only for all the columns.
