 | OperationCopyObject Method (ModelObject, CoordinateSystem, CoordinateSystem) |
Copies the model object between the given translation coordinate systems.
Namespace: Tekla.Structures.Model.Operations
Assembly: Tekla.Structures.Model (in Tekla.Structures.Model.dll) Version: 2023.0.1
Syntaxpublic static ModelObject CopyObject( ModelObject Object, CoordinateSystem StartCoordinateSystem, CoordinateSystem EndCoordinateSystem )
Parameters
- Object
- Type: Tekla.Structures.ModelModelObject
The model object to copy. - StartCoordinateSystem
- Type: Tekla.Structures.Geometry3dCoordinateSystem
The coordinate system to copy the object from. - EndCoordinateSystem
- Type: Tekla.Structures.Geometry3dCoordinateSystem
The coordinate system to copy the object to.
Return Value
Type: ModelObjectThe copied model object on success, null on failure.
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 copies 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(); Beam Beam4 = Operation.CopyObject(Beam3, Beam1.GetCoordinateSystem(), Beam2.GetCoordinateSystem()) as Beam; if(Beam4 != null) MessageBox.Show("Copy succeeded"); } }
