Parameters

EntitiesToDimension

Entities to dimension as defined in swAutodimEntities_e

HorizontalScheme

Horizontal dimensioning scheme as defined in swAutodimScheme_e

HorizontalPlacement

Placement relative to the sketch as defined in swAutodimHorizontalPlacement_e

VerticalScheme

Vertical dimensioning scheme as defined in swAutodimScheme_e

VerticalPlacement

Placement relative to the sketch as defined in swAutodimVerticalPlacement_e

Return Value

swAutodimStatusSuccess if the sketch is automatically dimensioned successfully; see swAutodimStatus_e for values for reasons for possible failures

If the EntitiesToDimension argument takes the value swAutodimEntitiesSelected, then use IModelDocExtension::SelectByID2 with a mark value of swAutodimMarkEntities to select the sketch entities to dimension.

You can supply datums for horizontal and vertical dimensioning schemes. Select and mark a unique vertical edge, vertex, sketch point, or vertical sketch line as the datum for the horizontal dimensioning scheme, using swAutodimMarkHorizontalDatum as the mark value. Similarly, select a unique horizontal edge, vertex, sketch point, or horizontal sketch line as the datum for the vertical dimensioning scheme, using swAutodimMarkVerticalDatum as the mark value. It is an error to supply just one datum as indicated by the status value swAutodimStatus_DatumNotSupplied.
