Hi
I have this code (for com api) to access the Properties of a individual Selection.
It gives me something similar to what is in NW Manage or Simulate.
Sometimes a selection has properties of a unique Id like a Guid or an Id, but it seems to be optional for each Navisworks file.
Is there such a thing as a mandatory Unique Id for an individual selection in a Navisworks file? Or am I limited to using the InwOaPath as a sort-of-unique Id?
public void Dump(nw.InwOpSelection sel, out Dictionary<string, List<nw.InwOaProperty>> propertiesWithClass)
{
propertiesWithClass = new Dictionary<string, List<nw.InwOaProperty>>();
foreach (nw.InwOaPath path in sel.Paths())
{
var propertyNode = (nw.InwGUIPropertyNode2)_state.GetGUIPropertyNode(path, true);
foreach (nw.InwGUIAttribute2 attribute in propertyNode.GUIAttributes())
{
try
{
var properties = new List<nw.InwOaProperty>();
string classUsername = attribute.ClassUserName;
foreach (nw.InwOaProperty p in attribute.Properties())
{
var property =
(nw.InwOaProperty)_state.ObjectFactory(nw.nwEObjectType.eObjectType_nwOaProperty, null, null);
property.UserName = p.UserName;
property.value = p.value;
properties.Add(property);
}
if (!propertiesWithClass.ContainsKey(attribute.ClassUserName))
{
propertiesWithClass.Add(attribute.ClassUserName, properties);
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(e.Message + e.StackTrace);
}
}
}
