Parameters

ExplDist

Distance in meters to move the components in this explode step

ExplDirIndex

Explode direction manipulator index as defined in swExplodeDirectionIndex_e (see Remarks)

ReverseDir

True to reverse the explode direction, false to not

ExplAng

Angle in radians of component rotation (see Remarks)

RotAxisIndex

Rotation manipulator index as defined in swRotationAxisIndex_e (see Remarks)

ReverseAng

True to reverse the direction of ExplAng, false to not

RotateAboutOrigin

True if each component rotates about its origin, false if not (see Remarks)

AutoSpaceComponentsOnDrag

True to automatically space components on drag, false to not (see Remarks)

Error

Error code as defined in swCreateExplodeStepError_e

Return Value

This method:

• Is valid only for an active current explode view. To create an explode view, call IAssemblyDoc::AutoExplode or IAssemblyDoc::CreateExplodedView.
• Always clears the selection list.
• Does not work if the Explode PropertyManager is open.
• Does not work if any component is being edited in the context of the assembly.

If AutoSpaceComponentsOnDrag is set to true, then RotateAboutOrigin is false and ExplAng is 0.0. Set AutoSpaceComponentsOnDrag to false to specify other values for RotateAboutOrigin and ExplAng.

Before calling this method, you must:

1. Use IConfigurationManager::ActiveConfiguration to get the active configuration for the assembly.
2. Call IAssemblyDoc::ShowExploded2 to activate an explode view.
3. Call IModelDocExtension::SelectByID2 to select:

After calling this method, call IModelDoc2::EditRebuild3.

For C++, specify VARIANT_TRUE or VARIANT_FALSE for ReverseDir, ReverseAng, and RotateAboutOrigin.
