Reverse plane direction Vb.net

Reverse plane direction Vb.net

Reverse plane direction Vb.net

(OP)
I want to change the direction of an offset plane, basically I want to make the reverse option. Any Idea of how to do it?

RE: Reverse plane direction Vb.net

Method on HybridShapeFactory is called

AddNewInverse

From documentation:

Func AddNewInverse( Reference Element,
long Inverse) As HybridShapeInverse

Creates a new Inverse within the current body.
Parameters:
iElement
The objet to inverse
iInverse
the type of inversion (see CATGSMOrientation.h) 1 for no inversion -1 for inversion
oInv
The inverted object



Hope it helps,
Calin

So I guess you didn't want to change the orientation but the direction :)))

Good one :))

RE: Reverse plane direction Vb.net

changing the value is one thing, the other thing would have been to use the HybridShapePlaneOffset.Orientation = -1 property
