 | OperationMoveObject Method (ModelObject, CoordinateSystem, CoordinateSystem) |
Moves the model object between the given translation coordinate systems.
Namespace: Tekla.Structures.Model.Operations
Assembly: Tekla.Structures.Model (in Tekla.Structures.Model.dll) Version: 2023.0.3
Syntaxpublic static bool MoveObject( ModelObject Object, CoordinateSystem StartCoordinateSystem, CoordinateSystem EndCoordinateSystem )
Parameters
- Object
- Type: Tekla.Structures.ModelModelObject
The model object to move. - StartCoordinateSystem
- Type: Tekla.Structures.Geometry3dCoordinateSystem
The coordinate system to move the object from. - EndCoordinateSystem
- Type: Tekla.Structures.Geometry3dCoordinateSystem
The coordinate system to move the object to.
Return Value
Type: BooleanTrue on success, false on failure.
RemarksNote that the object is moved and updated in the view so ModelObject.Modify() is not needed. Call Modify() only after the object's data has been updated with the ModelObject.Select() method.
Examples
In the following example a connection to the Tekla Structures model has already been established.
The example code creates a beam (Beam3) to the model and moves the beam between the coordinate systems of Beam1 and Beam2.
using Tekla.Structures.Model; using Tekla.Structures.Model.Operations; using Tekla.Structures.Geometry3d; using System.Windows.Forms; public class Example { public void Example1() { Beam Beam1 = new Beam(new Point(0, 0, 0), new Point(3000, 0, 0)); Beam1.Profile.ProfileString = "PL10*140"; Beam1.Insert(); Beam Beam2 = new Beam(new Point(3000, 0, 0), new Point(6000, 0, 0)); Beam2.Profile.ProfileString = "PL10*140"; Beam2.Insert(); Beam Beam3 = new Beam(new Point(100, 0, 0), new Point(100, 0, 400)); Beam3.Profile.ProfileString = "PL10*140"; Beam3.Insert(); if(Operation.MoveObject(Beam3, Beam1.GetCoordinateSystem(), Beam2.GetCoordinateSystem())) MessageBox.Show("Move succeeded"); } }
