&   int Config_opt,
&   int Config_count,
&   String^% Config_names
) 

Parameters

Config_opt
Configuration options as defined by swInConfigurationOpts_e
Config_count
Number of configurations for this component
Config_names
Array of configuration names for this component of size Config_count

Return Value

  • in-process, unmanaged C++: Pointer to an array of doubles of size 9 doubles (see Remarks)
  • VBA, VB.NET, C#, and C++/CLI: Not supported
  • See In-process Methods for details about this type of method.

    Remarks

    The material values returned include the face color (R,G,B values), reflectivity (ambient, diffuse, specular, shininess), transparency, and emission. Valid values are from 0 to 1 for all variables.

    If you set Config_opt to swThisConfiguration or swAllConfiguration, then pass NULL or any object because Config_names  is ignored.

    If the return value is all -1 values, then material property values were not assigned to the feature.

    The format of the array of doubles is as follows:

    [ R, G, B, Ambient, Diffuse, Specular, Shininess, Transparency, Emission ]
