Methods

	Name	Description
	CreateProfileString	Gets the parametric profile item prefix and adds parameter values.
	Export	Exports the profile item in the profile database to given file name. Currently library profiles, sketch profiles and clb profiles are supported. Library profiles are exported to .lis format. Sketch profiles are exported to .uel format. Clb profiles are exported to *.clb format. If path is not given profile is exported to model folder. If filename is empty profile name or prefix is used as filename. (Inherited from ProfileItem.)
	GetCrossSection	Returns list of cross section points of inner surfaces from the profile item. (Inherited from ProfileItem.)
	GetHighAccuracyCrossSection	Get cross section with high accuracy. (Inherited from ProfileItem.)
	GetParametricProfilePrefix	Gets the parametric profile item prefix using the given subtype. This can be used after retrieving a library profile that has a parametric user-defined type.
	GetProfileItemSubTypes	Selects the profile item and updates the sub types in the profile database. (Inherited from ProfileItem.)
	IsProfileUserDefined	Whether the profile is a fixed user-defined profile. (Inherited from ProfileItem.)
	IsProfileUserParametric	Whether the profile is a parametric user-defined profile. If so, the prefix can be asked by type and subtype. (Inherited from ProfileItem.)
	ModifyProfileItemAnalysisParameter	Modify analysis parameter of library profile item. Modify is needed for profile item for updating changes to profile database (Inherited from ProfileItem.)
	ModifyProfileItemParameter	Modify parameter of library profile item. Modify is needed for profile item for updating changes to profile database (Inherited from ProfileItem.)
	ModifyProfileItemUserParameter	Modify user parameter of library profile item. Modify is needed for profile item for updating changes to profile database (Inherited from ProfileItem.)
	Select	Selects the profile item in the profile database. (Inherited from ProfileItem.)
	Select(String)	Selects the parametric profile item in the profile database using the given name.

Examples

It is possible to select a parametric profile item by its name:

Copy

using Tekla.Structures.Catalogs;

public class Example
{
       public void Example1()
       {
           ParametricProfileItem ParametricProfileItem = new ParametricProfileItem();
           ParametricProfileItem.ProfilePrefix = "PHI";
           ParametricProfileItem.Select();
       }
}
