Sheet.CreateGeometryIntent Method

Parent Object: Sheet

Description

Method that creates a GeometryIntent object for use in various annotation and view creations.

Syntax

Sheet.CreateGeometryIntent( Geometry As Object, [Intent] As Variant ) As GeometryIntent

Parameters

Name Type Description
Geometry Object Input object that specifies the geometry. Valid \input objects are DrawingCurve, sketch entities from a sheet sketch, DrawingDimension, Centerline, and Centermark objects. If a DrawingDimension object is input, a Point2d on the dimension must be provided in the Intent argument. A Point object can be provided for true dimensions in an iso\-view. Use the DimensionLine, ExtensionLineOne and ExtensionLineTwo properties on the dimension objects to get points on the dimension.

Intent Variant Input object that specifies the intent point on the input geometry. This can be a value from PointIntentEnum, a geometry if the intent is the intersection of two geometries, a Point2d object that specifies a sheet point on the geometry or a double value (0 to 1) indicating the parameter on the input curve geometry. The range of valid parameter values can be obtained using the GetParamExtents method on the curve's evaluator.

This is an optional argument whose default value is null.
