Parameters

ExplDist

Distance in meters to move the components in this explode step

ExplAng

Angle in radians of rotation about component origins

DivergeFromAxis

True to move components at an angle from the selected explode direction, 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.

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 and DivergeFromAxis.

To edit a radial explode step, see the IExplodeStep remarks.

To create an explode step for the explode view of a multibody part, see IConfiguration::AddPartExplodeStep.
