Parameters

Top

True to set the text in the portion of the symbol above the horizontal line, false to set the text in the portion of the symbol below the horizontal line

Left

Text to the left of the weld symbol

Symbol

Text representing the weld symbol (see Remarks)

Right

Text to the right of the weld symbol

Stagger

Text to the right of the stagger symbol (see Remarks)

Contour

Contour setting as defined in swWeldSymbolContourTypes_e (see Remarks)

Return Value

True if the text and symbols are set, false if not

To get the individual pieces of text for a weld symbol, use IWeldSymbol::GetText. To get the contour setting for a weld symbol, use IWeldSymbol::GetContour.

The stagger text that is specified is only visible if this option is enabled. See IWeldSymbol::GetStagger to see the current setting and IWeldSymbol::SetStagger to enable or disable that option.

A list of weld symbol names can be found in the text file gtol.sym,, typically installed at C:\ProgramData\SolidWorks\SolidWorks 20nn\lang\english. Specify Symbol with one of the currently supported ISO weld symbols:
