NX Block Styler

NX Block Styler

NX Block Styler

(OP)
Hi Everyone!!
Could anyone help me resetting the values of block styler (Type Double) to zero. I know the code for resetting
values has to be written under void Projectname::dialogShown_cb()

Basically I want to know how to use setdouble.
Please help.

RE: NX Block Styler

It depends on what version of NX you are using. At NX6 and earlier the blocks have no methods to get/set values. Instead you have to use what is known as a PropertyList. So to set the value of a DoubleBlock you would have to do something like this:

CODE --> Java

nxopen.blockstyler.DoubleBlock db;
...
PropertyList pl = db.getProperties();
pl.setDouble("Value", 123.4);
pl.dispose(); 
But somewhere between NX6 and NX8.5 the blocks were enhanced so you can now call methods on them directly to get/set values. So at NX8.5 the above code could be written much simpler like this:

CODE --> Java

nxopen.blockstyler.DoubleBlock db;
...
db.setValue(123.4); 

Hope this helps.
