    Public Properties
     NameDescription
    Public PropertyAbsolute position and rotation represented by transformation matrix.  
    Public PropertyAbsolute position and rotation represented by transformation matrix where transformation of macro is considered.  
    Public PropertyDetermines if connection point data are saved locally at the part placement.  
    Public PropertyReturns all children of this object.  
    Public PropertyColor of 3D Placement  
    Public PropertyAll existing 3d connections whose beginning or end is this placement.  
    Public PropertyArray of connection points data.  
    Public PropertyRepresents coordinates of corners  
    Public PropertyReturns an array of objects cross-referenced with this object (i.e. having the same name - in case of functions - or otherwise associated) (Inherited from Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.StorableObject)
    Public PropertyReturns the project as number. The number is unique for all open projects in one session. The number changes when the project is closed and opened again. (Inherited from Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.StorableObject)
    Public PropertyReturns the Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.FunctionDefinition of the Placement3D.  
    Public PropertyReturns a Group3D object that the Placement3D object belongs to. If the Placement3D object doesn't belong to any group3D, NULL is returned.  
    Public PropertyReturns InstallationSpace in which this object exists.  
    Public PropertyIndicates whether object is currently hidden in 3D editor view.  
    Public Property

    Determines if the the StorableObject is locked.

    The StorableObject is locked when it was explicitly or implicitly locked.

    (Inherited from Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.StorableObject)
    Public PropertyReturns true if a mesh is created for this objects and assigned for it.  
    Public PropertyReturns true if the placement is placed.  
    Public PropertyDetermines if StorableObject is read-only (Inherited from Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.StorableObject)
    Public Property

    Determines if the the StorableObject is transient.

    The StorableObject is transient when it was created by default constructor and:

    it is a Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.Page and it was not assigned a Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.Project,

    it is a Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.Placement or any class derived from it and was not assigned a Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.Page.

    (Inherited from Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.StorableObject)
    Public PropertyDetermines if StorableObject is correct database object and is not deleted. (Inherited from Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.StorableObject)
    Public PropertyReturns the Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.Graphics.GraphicalLayer of the Placement3D.  
    Public PropertyReturns the object identifier as number. The number is unique for all objects of this type. (Inherited from Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.StorableObject)
    Public PropertyGets or Sets parent placement. Caution: The Change of the parent will also change the absolute position because Placement3D stores the position relative to his parent  
    Public PropertyRepresents placement area of a Placement3D.  
    Public PropertyReturns children of this object which are Plane.  
    Public PropertyReturns the project the StorableObject belongs to. (Inherited from Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.StorableObject)
    Public Property.NET Property enabling access to EPLAN properties of the Placement3D object.  
    Public PropertyReturns PropertyPlacementsSchemas assigned to this Placement3D.  
    Public PropertyReturns PropertyPlacementsSchemas assigned to this SymbolReference.  
    Public PropertyPosition and rotation relative to the parent placement represented by transformation matrix.  
    Public PropertyRelative position and rotation represented by transformation matrix where transformation of macro is considered.  
    Public PropertyGets the root 3d placement from tree of 3d elements which this object is part of.  
    Public PropertyReturns the type of the object as number. (Inherited from Eplan.EplApi.DataModel.StorableObject)
    Public PropertyReturn true if the instance uses the local property instances, otherwise it uses the ones of the variant.
