VS:BeginColumn
.VectorScript|VectorScript ..VS:Function Reference|Function Reference ..VS:Function_Reference_Appendix|Appendix
Description
Procedure BeginColumn creates a column object in a VectorWorks document using 2D object creation procedure calls to define the "template" for the column object.
After specifying object procedure calls to define the column, you should call EndGroup to complete the column definition and create the actual object.
PROCEDURE BeginColumn(
columnDistance :REAL);
def vs.BeginColumn(columnDistance): return None
Parameters
columnDistance REAL Height of column.
Remarks
BeginColumn takes the group of objects that follow, until there is an EndGroup, and converts them into a column with height equal to column distance.
