IGetLeaderAtIndex Method (IWeldSymbol)

Gets information about the specified leader on this symbol.

.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Function IGetLeaderAtIndex( _
   ByVal Index As System.Integer, _
   ByRef PointCount As System.Integer _
) As System.Double
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As IWeldSymbol
Dim Index As System.Integer
Dim PointCount As System.Integer
Dim value As System.Double
 
value = instance.IGetLeaderAtIndex(Index, PointCount)
C# 
System.double IGetLeaderAtIndex( 
   System.int Index,
   out System.int PointCount
)
C++/CLI 
System.double IGetLeaderAtIndex( 
&   System.int Index,
&   [Out] System.int PointCount
) 

Parameters

Index

Index of leader

PointCount

Number of (x,y,z) points returned in the array

Return Value

  • in-process, unmanaged C++: Pointer to an array of doubles (see Remarks)
  • VBA, VB.NET, C#, and C++/CLI: Not supported

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

  • Remarks

    There can be 0, 1 or 2 lines used with the leader line. If the weld symbol is not attached, then there are 0 lines; otherwise, you can have a straight leaderline (1 line) or a bent leaderline (2 lines). You must infer the number of leaderlines based on IsAttached() and HasExtraLeader().

    • IsAttached() == false implies no leaderline and no leaderline points (PointCount=0).

    • HasExtraLeader() == false means that this is a straight leaderline and 1 line (PointCount=2)

    • HasExtraLeader() == true means that this is a bent leaderline and 2 lines (PointCount=3)

    Format of return information is the following array of doubles:

    retval[0] = x-coordinate of first leader point

    retval[1] = y-coordinate of first leader point

    retval[2] = z-coordinate of first leader point

     

    retval[3] = x-coordinate of second leader point

    retval[4] = y-coordinate of second leader point

    retval[5] = z-coordinate of second leader point

     

    retval[6] = x-coordinate of third leader point

    retval[7] = y-coordinate of third leader point

    retval[8] = z-coordinate of third leader point

     

    Use IWeldSymbol::GetLeaderCount to see how many leaders there are on the weld symbol.
