Auxiliary Views
Methods Introduced:
An auxiliary view is a type of projected view that projects at right angles to a selected surface or axis. The selected surface or axis in the parent view must be perpendicular to the plane of the screen.
The method wfcDrawing.WDrawing.CreateAuxiliaryView creates an auxiliary view. Pass the information required to create the auxiliary view as a wfcView2D.AuxiliaryViewInstructions object.
The method wfcView2D.WView2D.GetAuxiliaryViewInstructions retrieves information about the auxiliary view as a wfcView2D.AuxiliaryViewInstructions object.
The method wfcView2D.wfcView2D.AuxiliaryViewInstructions_Create creates a data object that contains information about the auxiliary view.
The methods wfcView2D.AuxiliaryViewInstructions.GetReference and wfcView2D.AuxiliaryViewInstructions.SetReference retrieve and set the selection reference for the auxiliary view as a pfcSelect.Selection object.
The methods wfcView2D.AuxiliaryViewInstructions.GetLocation and wfcView2D.AuxiliaryViewInstructions.SetLocation retrieve and set the centerpoint of the auxiliary view as a pfcBase.Point3D object. By default, the origin of a drawing view is in the center of its outline. You can reset the origin of a drawing view by parametrically referencing model geometry or defining a location on the drawing sheet.
The method wfcView2D.WView2D.SetViewAsAuxiliary sets a specified drawing view as the auxiliary view.
