SetRoofAttributes

Description

Function SetRoofAttributes sets the definition attributes of a roof object in a VectorWorks document.

Table - Roof Miter Styles

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

Name Type Description
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.

Examples

VectorScript

PROCEDURE Example;
VAR
thickness :REAL;
str	:STRING;

PROCEDURE SetIt(h :HANDLE);
BEGIN
IF GetObjectVariableInt(h, 172) = 1 THEN 
SetObjectVariableReal(h, 170, thickness * 25.4);
END;

PROCEDURE FindRoofFaces(h :HANDLE);
VAR
temp_h :HANDLE;
roofObject :HANDLE; 
genGableWall :BOOLEAN; 
bearingInsetDistance, roofThickDistance :REAL; 
miterType :INTEGER; 
vertMiterDistance :REAL;
BEGIN
IF GetType(h) = 71 THEN SetIt(h) ELSE
IF GetRoofAttributes(h, genGableWall, bearingInsetDistance, roofThickDistance, miterType, vertMiterDistance) THEN
SetRoofAttributes(h, genGableWall, bearingInsetDistance, thickness, miterType, vertMiterDistance);
END;

BEGIN
thickness := RealDialog('Enter desired thickness', '10');
str := Concat('((T=71) | (T=83)) & (L=''', GetLName(ActLayer), ''')');
ForEachObject(FindRoofFaces, str);
END;
RUN(Example);
