Member Enumeration Documentation

enum NXOpen.Preferences.SketchPreferences.DimensionLabelType

Enumerator
Expression	Displays the entire expression such as P2=P3*4
Name	Displays only the name of the expression, such as P2
Value	Displays the numerical value of the expression

Member Function Documentation

unsafe void NXOpen.Preferences.SketchPreferences.ApplySketchPreferences ( int dimDisplayFlag )

inline

Applies sketch preferences set by user.

The dimDisplayFlag is the API version of the UI setting of Retain Dimensions which was last available for use in NX 6. The setting still exists in the UI for legacy parts that have a sketch with Retain Dimensions enabled. However, once the setting is turned off, it cannot be turned on again. This functionality is replaced by NXOpen.Annotations.AnnotationManager.MakePmi in an active sketch or NXOpen.Features.EditDimensionBuilder.DisplayAsPmi when not in an active sketch.

Created in NX3.0.0

License requirements: None.

Parameters

dimDisplayFlag If sketch dimensions are already displayed outside of an active sketch, Set 0 to turn off the display of dimensions outside of the active sketch.
