GetSolidSector

Syntax

SapObject.SapModel.PropFrame.SDShape.GetSolidSector

VB6 Procedure

Function GetSolidSector(ByVal Name As String, ByValShapeName As String, ByRefMatProp As String, ByRef Color As Long, ByRefXCenter As Double, ByRefYCenter As Double, ByRef Angle As Double, ByRefRotation As Double, ByRef Radius As Double) As Long

Parameters

Name

The name of an existing frame section property that is a section designer section.

ShapeName

The name of an existing solid sector shape in the specified frame section property.

MatProp

The name of the material property for the shape.

Color

The fill color assigned to the shape.

XCenter

The X-coordinate of the center of the shape in the section designer coordinate system. [L]

YCenter

The Y-coordinate of the center of the shape in the section designer coordinate system. [L]

Angle

The angle between the two radii that define the circular sector. [deg]

Rotation

The counter clockwise rotation of the shape from its default orientation. [deg]

Radius

The radius of the circle defining the Sector. [L]

Remarks

This function retrieves property data for a solid sector shape in a section designer section.

The function returns zero if the property data is successfully retrieved; otherwise it returns a nonzero value.
