Civil3D 2013 COGO Point update User defined property value using C#

[raghulan]

Hello All,

 I need to update the user defined property values using C# code,

I can see information on how to ge the values of UDP but cannot see any information on how to modify, edit, udpate or add infromation to the UDP of a point.

Basically in the attached image i want to add "Street light" to the Type UDP.

Please advice

If this doesn't help, show code you are trying.

cogopt.SetUDPValue(udpname, udpvalue);

Hi Raghulan,

You can use CogoPoint.SetUDPValue

You can see some related code snippet in ADN IM DevBlog -

Let me know if you have an issue using CogoPoint.SetUDPValue() API Hope this helps !

Cheers,

Partha
