Parameters

PitchMethod

Pitch method as defined in swChainPatternPitchMethod_e; available for all types of chain patterns

FlipDirection

True to reverse the direction of the chain pattern, false to not; available for all types of chain patterns

FillPath

True to automatically set the number of pattern instances to fill the path, false to not; available for all types of chain patterns and when EqualSpacing is false for distance and linkage distance chain patterns

Number

Number of pattern instances; available for all types of chain patterns when FillPath is false

Spacing

Distance between the pattern instances when EqualSpacing is false; only available for distance and linkage distance chain patterns when EqualSpacing is false

GroupOneFlipPlane

True to flip the path alignment plane for Chain Group 1, false to not; available for all types of chain patterns

GroupTwoChain

True to set the component to pattern for Chain Group 2, false to not; only available for connected linkage chain patterns

GroupTwoFlipPlane

True to flip the path alignment plane for Chain Group 2, false to not; only available for connected linkage chain patterns

AlignMethod

Alignment method as defined in swChainPatternAlignment_e; only available for distance and linkage distance chain patterns

Options

Option as defined in swChainPatternOptions_e; available for all types of chain patterns

Return Value

To set equal spacing between chain pattern instances, edit the chain pattern feature after creating it.
