AddByDetailEnvelope Method

Description

Creates an detail DrawingView object and a DetailEnvelope object from an existing DrawingView object.

Syntax

Visual Basic
Public Function AddByDetailEnvelope( _ ByVal From As DrawingView, _ ByVal x1 As Double, _ ByVal y1 As Double, _ ByVal Radius As Double, _ ByVal Scale As Double, _ ByVal x2 As Double, _ ByVal y2 As Double _ ) As DrawingView

Visual Basic

Public Function AddByDetailEnvelope( _
   ByVal From As DrawingView, _
   ByVal x1 As Double, _
   ByVal y1 As Double, _
   ByVal Radius As Double, _
   ByVal Scale As Double, _
   ByVal x2 As Double, _
   ByVal y2 As Double _
) As DrawingView

Parameters

From: The DrawingView object from which the detail drawing view is created.
x1: Specifies the coordinates for the center of the detail envelope used for generating the detail drawing view.
y1: Specifies the coordinates for the center of the detail envelope used for generating the detail drawing view.
Radius: Specifies the length of the detail envelope's radius.
Scale: Specifies the scale of the detail drawing view. The scale determines the size of the detail view in that the detail view sizes automatically to display everything encompassed within the detail envelope.
x2: Specifies the coordinates for the origin of the detail drawing view.
y2: Specifies the coordinates for the origin of the detail drawing view.

Remarks

This method also creates a DetailEnvelope object for the detail drawing view. The AddByDetailEnvelope method requires detail envelope parameters as input. These parameters include the envelope's center point coordinates and its radius. This method also requires the coordinates for the detail drawing view and the scale of the view as inputs. The AddByDetailEnvelope method cannot be used until a DrawingView object exists. The initial DrawingView object is created through the DrawingViews.Add method.
