ICreatePlanePerCurveAndPassPoint3 Method (IModelDoc2)

Obsolete. Superseded by IFeatureManager::InsertRefPlane.

.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function ICreatePlanePerCurveAndPassPoint3( _
   ByVal OrigAtCurve As System.Boolean, _
   ByVal AutoSize As System.Boolean _
) As RefPlane
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As IModelDoc2
Dim OrigAtCurve As System.Boolean
Dim AutoSize As System.Boolean
Dim value As RefPlane
 
value = instance.ICreatePlanePerCurveAndPassPoint3(OrigAtCurve, AutoSize)
C# 
RefPlane ICreatePlanePerCurveAndPassPoint3( 
   System.bool OrigAtCurve,
   System.bool AutoSize
)
C++/CLI 
RefPlane^ ICreatePlanePerCurveAndPassPoint3( 
&   System.bool OrigAtCurve,
&   System.bool AutoSize
) 

Parameters

OrigAtCurve

True if you want the origin to be on the curve, false if not

AutoSize

True if plane is to be automatically sized, false if not

Return Value

Newly created reference plane

Remarks

This method uses the current document setting for displaying the reference plane. If display of reference planes is disabled, then you do not see the reference plane on the screen. If display of reference planes is enabled, then you see it. IModelDocExtension::GetUserPreferenceToggle swDisplayPlanes and IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceToggle swDisplayPlanes get or set this display preference.

 

This method does not select the reference plane after it is created. Objects that are selected before running this method are still selected when the method completes, not the newly created reference plane.

 

This method returns an IRefPlane object. This object can then be used for subsequent operations on the reference plane feature. Having a IRefPlane object may not be useful, except that it is a feature, which is an entity, so methods available on those objects are available. For an OLE user, those functions are directly accessible; for a COM user, those functions are available via QueryInterface. For example, to select the reference plane, use IEntity::Select4.
