Parameters

BodyName

Name of the Costing body (see Remarks)

MethodType

Manufacturing type as defined in swcMethodType_e

Return Value

If you specify:

• a name for BodyName, then the current body is deleted and a new body of the type that you specified in MethodType is created. This method returns the newly created body and invalidates any previously selected bodies.
• an empty string for BodyName, then the body in a single body part or the currently selected body in a multibody part is used. This method returns this body.

For a structural Costing analysis, specify the name of the cut-list item for BodyName to use for the manufacturing method.
