Parameters

CloudShape

Revision cloud annotation shape as defined in swRevisionCloudShape_e

Return Value

• in-process, unmanaged C++: Pointer to an IRevisionCloud
• VBA, VB.NET, C#, and C++/CLI: Not supported

See In-process Methods for details about this type of method.

After calling this method:

1. Call IRevisionCloud::IGetAnnotation to get the annotation object for the revision cloud.
2. Call IAnnotation::SetPosition to set the revision cloud position point on the drawing. If you eliminate this step, the revision cloud is rendered starting at the drawing origin of x=0, y=0, z=0. Set the revision cloud position point as follows:

   For revision cloud shape...	Set the revision cloud position point to...
   Ellipse	The center of the revision cloud.
   Rectangle	A corner of the revision cloud.
   Polygon	One of the points on the revision cloud.
   Freehand	One of the points on the revision cloud.

3. Call IRevisionCloud::ArcRadius to set the arc radius of the revision cloud.

4. Call IRevisionCloud::SetPathPointAtIndex with Index = -1 to create points on the revision cloud as follows:

   For revision cloud shape...	Call IRevisionCloud::SetPathPointAtIndex...
   Ellipse	Once, specifying the coordinates of a corner of the ellipse-inscribed rectangle.
   Rectangle	Once, specifying the coordinates of a corner opposite the revision cloud position point.
   Polygon	(Number of polygon sides + 1) times, such that the first and last points coincide with the revision cloud position point.
   Freehand	Indefinite number of times, such that the first and last points coincide with the revision cloud position point.

5. Call IRevisionCloud::Finalize to close the revision cloud path. Once the revision cloud path is closed, you can no longer add points to it.

6. Call IRevisionCloud::SetPathPointAtIndex to modify the position of an existing point on the revision cloud.
