Examples
In the following example a connection to the Tekla Structures model has already been established.
The example code creates a beam to the model and moves the beam one meter in the x and y directions.
using Tekla.Structures.Model; using Tekla.Structures.Model.Operations; using Tekla.Structures.Filtering; using Tekla.Structures.Filtering.Categories; 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.Name = "GetObjectsByFilter"; if(Beam1.Insert()) { BinaryFilterExpression FilterExpression1 = new BinaryFilterExpression(new PartFilterExpressions.Name(), StringOperatorType.IS_EQUAL, new StringConstantFilterExpression("GetObjectsByFilter")); if(Operation.ObjectMatchesToFilter(Beam1, FilterExpression1)) MessageBox.Show("Object matches the filter"); } } }
