Description
Function SetRoofAttributes sets the definition attributes of a roof object in a VectorWorks document.
Miter Style | Constant |
---|---|
Vertical | 1 |
Horizontal | 2 |
Double | 3 |
Square | 4 |
PROCEDURE SetRoofAttributes(
roofObject :HANDLE;
genGableWall :BOOLEAN;
bearingInsetDistance :REAL;
roofThickDistance :REAL;
miterType :INTEGER;
vertMiterDistance :REAL);
def vs.SetRoofAttributes(roofObject, genGableWall, bearingInsetDistance, roofThickDistance, miterType, vertMiterDistance): return None
Parameters
roofObject HANDLE Handle to roof . genGableWall BOOLEAN Sets gable roof generation mode. bearingInsetDistance REAL Sets bearing inset distance. roofThickDistance REAL Sets roof thickness. miterType INTEGER Sets miter style. vertMiterDistance REAL Specifies vertical miter dimension.
Remarks
genGableWall: Set to true to have a wall created at gable ends of the roof. Otherwise no object will be inserted.
bearingInset is where the weight of the roof rests on the wall. This is an inset from the defining edge of the roof plan. miterType: Specify 1 for a vertical miter, 2 for horizontal miter, 3 for a double miter cut, and 4 for a square end miter cut. vertMiter: This is used only with the double miter type; it specifies the vertical length of the miter cut.
