AddFix Method

Description

Adds a fix relationship to a Relations2d collection.

Syntax

Visual Basic
Public Function AddFix( _ ByVal Object As Object, _ Optional ByVal guaranteed_ok As Variant _ ) As Relation2d

Parameters

Object: Specifies the Relations2d collection object to which the igFixRelation is to be added.
guaranteed_ok: If set, checking is performed to ensure that the relationship does not contradict previously placed relationships.

Remarks

The method fixes the specified graphic object to the sheet so that no move operation can be performed on the object. Relationship Add methods have checks to ensure that a new relationship does not contradict previously placed relationships. For example, AddHorizontal will return an error if the line already has a vertical relationship. This check can be turned off to enhance performance. The optional “guaranteed_ok” argument, if set to 1, bypasses relationship checking. However, this feature could leave the system in an unsolvable state, so use it with extreme caution. It is best to use this feature only on a new element with no other relationships.
