Parameters

UseParent

True to use the parent's setting, false to use its own local settings

Mode

Display mode of the drawing view as defined in swDisplayMode_e

Facetted

True if the geometry is displayed in draft quality, false if it is displayed in precise quality (see Remarks)

Edges

True if edges are displayed when this view is in shaded mode, false if not

Return Value

The contents of a drawing view can be displayed in different modes, including Wireframe, HLR (Hidden Lines Removed), and HLV (Hidden Lines Visible), and Shaded. This is what the Mode argument indicates, and these values are contained in swDisplayMode_e. To display a drawing view shaded with edges, set swDrawingsDefaultDisplayTypeHLREdgesWhenShaded to True and set Mode to swSHADED.

This enumeration also contains three other values, swFACETED_WIREFRAME, swFACETED_HIDDEN_GREY, and swFACETEDHIDDEN, which indicate faceted display of geometry. However, in this method, the Facetted argument is how faceted display is indicated, and if any of those three values are used in the Mode argument, they are treated the same as swWIREFRAME, sw_HIDDEN_GREY, and sw_HIDDEN, respectively.

Although you cannot switch a drawing view from precise quality to draft quality, the geometry can still be displayed in draft quality if that is how your user preferences indicate new drawings views should be created. Once the drawing view is precise quality, whether you created it that way or changed it to that after its creation, you cannot change it to draft quality.

NOTE:  Displaying geometry precisely can increase display quality, but can decrease performance. Setting the Facetted argument to True can increase performance, but can decrease display quality.
