Methods


Sub GetPositions( oCoordinates)
Retrieves the coordinates of the positions of the Marker2D.

These positions depend on the type of the Marker2D :

  • Line: 2 positions.
  • Arrow: 2 positions, the first being the head and the second being the tail.
  • Rectangle: 2 positions, the first being the bottom-left corner and the second being the top-right corner.
  • Circle: 2 positions, the first being the center and the second being a point on the circle.
  • FreeHand: as many positions as points.
  • Text: 1 position, the bottom-left corner.
  • Picture: 2 positions, the first being the bottom-left corner and the second being the top-right corner.
Parameters:
oCoordinates
The coordinates of the positions expressed as an array of variants are:
  • oCoordinates(0) is the X coordinate of the first point
  • oCoordinates(1) is the Y coordinate of the first point
  • oCoordinates(2) is the X coordinate of the second point
  • oCoordinates(3) is the Y coordinate of the second point
  • oCoordinates(n*2-2) is the X coordinate of the n-th point
  • oCoordinates(n*2-1) is the Y coordinate of the n-th point
Example: 
    This example retrieves the coordinates of the positions of the NewMarker2D Marker2D.
    
    Dim Coordinates (3)
    NewMarker2D.GetPositions Coordinates
Sub SetPositions( iCoordinates)
Sets the coordinates of the positions of the Marker2D.

These positions depend on the type of the Marker2D :

  • Line: 2 positions.
  • Arrow: 2 positions, the first being the head and the second being the tail.
  • Rectangle: 2 positions, the first being the bottom-left corner and the second being the top-right corner.
  • Circle: 2 positions, the first being the center and the second being a point on the circle.
  • FreeHand: as many positions as points.
  • Text: 1 position, the bottom-left corner.
  • Picture: 2 positions, the first being the bottom-left corner and the second being the top-right corner.
Parameters:
iCoordinates
The coordinates of the positions expressed as an array of variants are:
  • iCoordinates(0) is the X coordinate of the first point
  • iCoordinates(1) is the Y coordinate of the first point
  • iCoordinates(2) is the X coordinate of the second point
  • iCoordinates(3) is the Y coordinate of the second point
  • oCoordinates(n*2-2) is the X coordinate of the n-th point
  • oCoordinates(n*2-1) is the Y coordinate of the n-th point
Example: 
    This example sets the coordinates of the positions of the NewMarker2D Marker2D.
