API Help With 3D Annotation Needed

API Help With 3D Annotation Needed

API Help With 3D Annotation Needed

(OP)
I'm trying to extract 3D annotation information through the API and am having some problems that I was hoping someone could help with:


1) I can't find a function to determine the text color.

2) I can't find a function to get the leader information.

3) Sometimes text height and width come back as -1.  This happens when you don't manually assign a text size and take the default.  Does anyone know the default value?  Is it drawing dependent?  Is it a ProE setting?


I'm using ProMdlNote, ProNoteTextStyleGet, ProTextStyleHeightGet, ProTextStyleWidthGet, ... for extracting this data.  Thanks for any help!

So no one knows anything about this?  Oh well...  Hopefully someone will knock the dust of this issue eventually.

RE: API Help With 3D Annotation Needed

moleary,
Did you find the answer to this question?  If not here is what I think:

1)ProDtlnotedatacolorGet will get the color.
2)ProDtlnotedataAttachmentGet will get the leader info.
3)I think you are either passing a bad object to the function that is returning -1 or -1 means default.
