EllipseRadiusDimConstraint Object

Derived from: DimensionConstraint Object

Description

The EllipseRadiusDimConstraint object represents a constraint that controls either the major or minor radius of an ellipse.

Methods

Name Description
Delete Method that deletes the constraint.
GetReferenceKey Method that generates and returns the reference key for this entity.

Properties

Name Description
AnchorPoints Gets the anchor points of dimension.
Application Returns the top-level parent application object. When used the context of Inventor, an Application object is returned. When used in the context of Apprentice, an ApprenticeServer object is returned.
AttributeSets Property that returns the AttributeSets collection object associated with this object.
DimensionCenterPoint Gets the center of the dimension line.
Driven Gets and sets whether this dimension constraint is driving the geometry or the geometry is defining the value associated with the constraint.
Entity Property that returns the ellipse or elliptical arc being constrained.
MajorRadius Property that returns whether the proxy constraint is controlling the major or minor radius of the ellipse. Returns true if it is the major radius.
Parameter Property that returns the parameter associated with this dimension constraint. If the Driven property of the constraint is True, this will return a ReferenceParameter object. Otherwise it will return a ModelParameter object.
Parent Property that returns the parent sketch of the object.
TextPoint Gets and sets the position of the dimension text.
Type Returns an ObjectTypeEnum indicating this object's type.
