Parameters

ShowPMP

True to display the PropertyManager page, false to not (see Remarks)

Return Value

ShowPMP only controls the display of the PropertyManager page. This method allows access to the PropertyManager page selection lists regardless of whether the PropertyManager page is displayed. The selection lists have marks as defined in swSmartComponentSelectionTypes_e.

This method opens the training assembly in which this Smart Component is defined. 

To delete a feature or component from a Smart Component:

1. Open the Smart Component in SOLIDWORKS.
2. Call IFeature::GetDefinition on the "Smart Feature" to get the ISmartComponentFeatureData object.
3. Call this method to open the training assembly of the Smart Component.
4. Call ISldWorks::ActiveDoc to set an assembly document variable.
5. To get a specific feature or component, call ISelectionMgr::GetSelectedObject6(index, mark), where mark is defined in swSmartComponentSelectionTypes_e and index is the position of the item in the selection list.

6. Select an already selected feature or component to delete it from its selection list. If the object returned by ISelectionMgr::GetSelectedObject6 is a:

   • feature, call IFeature::Select2 to delete that feature from the feature selection list.
   • component, call IComponent2::Select4 to delete that component from the component selection list.

7. Close the training assembly and release access to the selection lists.

To insert a feature or component into a Smart Component:

1. Open the Smart Component in SOLIDWORKS.
2. Call IFeature::GetDefinition on the "Smart Feature" to get the ISmartComponentFeatureData object.
3. Call this method to open the training assembly of the Smart Component.
4. Call ISldWorks::ActiveDoc to point to the training assembly.
5. Call IModelDocExtension::SelectByID2 to specify the feature or component you want to insert, setting Mark to an option in swSmartComponentSelectionTypes_e.
6. Close the training assembly and release access to the selection lists.

To close the training assembly and release access to the selection lists on the PropertyManager page:

• Call ISmartComponentFeatureData::ReleaseSelectionAccess if you did not insert or delete features and components.
• Call IFeature::ModifyDefinition or IFeature::IModifyDefinition2 to rebuild the Smart Component if you inserted or deleted features and components.
