VS:Get2DPt

Description

Returns the location of the specified vertex of a referenced object.

PROCEDURE Get2DPt(
          obj             :HANDLE;
          index           :INTEGER;
          VAR locX,locY   :REAL);

def vs.Get2DPt(obj, index):
    return loc

Parameters

obj		HANDLE		Handle to object.
index		INTEGER		Index of vertex to be queried.
loc		REAL		Coordinates of 2D vertex location.

Remarks

Used with bounding box objects without vertexes (groups...), the routine doesn't throw error and always returns the coordinates of the center, independently of the passed vertex index.

(RGM Feb 2006): This will generally return the center of an object. Use GetSymLoc if you want eg. the 'point' of a Point PIO.
