BeginFolder

Description

Procedure BeginFolder creates a new symbol folder in a VectorWorks document. Any symbols or symbol folders created after the current call to BeginFolder will be nested inside the new symbol folder. A call to EndFolder will complete the creation of the symbol folder, which is then generated in the VectorWorks document.

To name the new symbol folder, precede BeginFolder with a call to NameObject.

PROCEDURE BeginFolder;
def vs.BeginFolder():
    return None

Examples

NameObject('Object Symbols');
BeginFolder;
BeginSym('Oval Symbols');
PenSize(14);
PenPat(2);
