Get Component State Example (C#)
This example shows how to find out if the selected component is resolved
or suppressed, hidden or visible, and whether or not it's a rigid or flexible
subassembly. This example also gets the persistent ID of the selected
component.
//---------------------------------------------------
// Preconditions:
// 1. Ensure that the specified assembly document
// to open exists.
// 2. Open the Immediate window.
// 3. Run the macro.
//
// Postconditions:
// 1. Opens the assembly document.
// 2. Selects the subassembly.
// 3. Prints to the Immediate window:
// * Paths to the assembly and subassembly documents
// * Whether the component is hidden, fixed,
// or suppressed
// * Component's persistent ID
// * Component's solving state
// 4. Examine the Immediate window.
