WeldMark Class

The WeldMark class defines a drawing object that illustrates a weld mark in a specific view. WeldMark class refers to welding marks that appear when creating/updating drawing views. In this case, ModelIdentifier has a value. WeldMark class also refers to weld marks created with drawing editor UI. In this case, ModelIdentifier value is zero. Graphical representation of welding marks (line and text properties) can be modified using .wel setting files. The welding mark settting files (.wls) cannot be used to modify instances of WeldMark class.

Properties
  NameDescription
Public propertyAttributes
Public propertyHideable
Accesses the information if this object is hidden or not or if it should be.
Public propertyInsertionPoint
The insertion point of the mark.
Public propertyModelIdentifier

Moves the object using the move vector.
Public methodSelect
Selects the weld mark from the current drawing database.
(Overrides DatabaseObjectSelect.)
Public methodSetUserProperty(String, Double)

Public methodSetUserProperty(String, String)
Sets a string property for the drawing object. The object has to be in a drawing before the method can be used.
(Inherited from DatabaseObject.)
Public methodToString
Changes the string presentation of the drawing object.
(Inherited from DrawingObject.)

Examples
The following code modifies a weld mark in the current drawing:
using Tekla.Structures.Drawing;
using Tekla.Structures.Geometry3d;

public class WeldMarkExample
{
    public void WeldMarkModify()
    {
        DrawingHandler myDrawingHandler = new DrawingHandler();
        DrawingObjectSelector dos = myDrawingHandler.GetDrawingObjectSelector();
        DrawingObjectEnumerator allObjectsOnSheet = dos.GetSelected();
        while (allObjectsOnSheet.MoveNext())
        {
            if (allObjectsOnSheet.Current is Tekla.Structures.Drawing.WeldMark)
            {
                WeldMark weldMark = allObjectsOnSheet.Current as Tekla.Structures.Drawing.WeldMark;
                weldMark.Modify();
            }
        }
    }
}
