Inserts a coordinate system feature.

.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function InsertCoordinateSystem( _
   ByVal XFlippedIn As System.Boolean, _
   ByVal YFlippedIn As System.Boolean, _
   ByVal ZFlippedIn As System.Boolean _
) As Feature
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As IFeatureManager
Dim XFlippedIn As System.Boolean
Dim YFlippedIn As System.Boolean
Dim ZFlippedIn As System.Boolean
Dim value As Feature
 
value = instance.InsertCoordinateSystem(XFlippedIn, YFlippedIn, ZFlippedIn)
C# 
Feature InsertCoordinateSystem( 
   System.bool XFlippedIn,
   System.bool YFlippedIn,
   System.bool ZFlippedIn
)
C++/CLI 
Feature^ InsertCoordinateSystem( 
&   System.bool XFlippedIn,
&   System.bool YFlippedIn,
&   System.bool ZFlippedIn
) 

Parameters

XFlippedIn
True to flip the x axis direction, false to not
YFlippedIn
True to flip the y axis direction, false to not
ZFlippedIn
True to flip the z axis direction, false to not

Return Value

Feature

Example

Remarks

Make the selections using IModelDocExtension::SelectByID2 with a mark of:

  •  1 - Origin

  •  2 - X axis

  •  4 - Y axis

  •  8 - Z axis

This method:

  • does not require all three axis to be selected. The behavior is the same as interactively creating a coordinate system. See the SOLIDWORKS Help for more information.
  • works in section-view mode, but not if temporary geometry that only exists in section-view mode is selected.
