Syntax

C#
C++/CLI

   ref Function oArticlePlacement
)

public:
void CreateArticlePlacement( 
   Function^ oMountingPanel,
   String^ strPartNumber,
   String^ strPartVariant,
   int macroVariant,
   PointD pLocation,
   Function^% oArticlePlacement
)

Parameters

oMountingPanel: mounting panel
strPartNumber: part number
strPartVariant: article's variant
macroVariant: variant of the article's macro to insert (0 - variant A, 1 - variant B, etc.)
pLocation: location
oArticlePlacement: created article placement

Remarks

In case the specified macro variant doesn't exist, a BaseException is thrown. Position of created placement is influenced by part placement handle string setting ("USER.PanelLayoutGui.Settings.Gripper"). If "USER.PanelLayoutGui.Settings.Gripper" is set to "UpperLeft" value then created placement will be positioned exactly at point passed in pLocation parameter.

Example

new Settings().SetStringSetting("USER.PanelLayoutGui.Settings.Gripper", "UpperLeft");

Note: The article must have width and height specified (the values must be greater than zero).
