GetModifiedDimensions Method (IInstanceToVaryOptions)

Gets the modified dimensions of the specified pattern instance.

.NET Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Sub GetModifiedDimensions( _
   ByVal Instance As System.Integer, _
   ByRef Dimensions As System.Object, _
   ByRef Values As System.Object _
) 
Visual Basic (Usage) 
Dim instance As IInstanceToVaryOptions
Dim Instance As System.Integer
Dim Dimensions As System.Object
Dim Values As System.Object
 
instance.GetModifiedDimensions(Instance, Dimensions, Values)
C# 
void GetModifiedDimensions( 
   System.int Instance,
   out System.object Dimensions,
   out System.object Values
)
C++/CLI 
void GetModifiedDimensions( 
&   System.int Instance,
&   [Out] System.Object^ Dimensions,
&   [Out] System.Object^ Values
) 

Parameters

Instance
Pattern instance number (see Remarks)
Dimensions
Array of modified dimensions
Values
Array of dimension values

Example

See the IInstanceToVaryOptions examples.

Remarks

To specify Instance, you can use IInstanceToVaryOptions::GetModifiedInstances to learn which pattern instances are modified.

To calculate Instance:

  1. Ensure that the D2PatternSeedOnly property in the pattern feature data object is set to false.
  2. Calculate:

      For a bi-directional pattern:

           I = n2 * (i - 1) + (j - 1)

      For a uni-directional pattern:

           I = i - 1

      where:

  • I = pattern instance number
  • n2 = number of instances in Direction 2
  • i = index for Direction 1
  • j = index for Direction 2

In the pattern's PropertyManager, find n2 in the Direction 2 > Spacing and Instances > Number of instances field and find [i,j] in the Modified Instances section.
