AddCircularDiameter Method

Description

Creates a dimension to measure the circular diameter of a circle or arc object.

Syntax

Visual Basic
Public Function AddCircularDiameter( _ ByVal Object As Object _ ) As Dimension

Parameters

Object: The object (a Circle2d or an Arc2d) to which the dimension is applied.

Remarks

This method takes the minimum required data (object) and assumes other data from the defaults set in the collection object.
