SubElements (CollectionItem)

Description

Returns or sets the object's internal array of indices.

NOTE: If you use the function to return, it will force an ascending order. Use CollectionItem.SubElements2 if you want the elements to be returned in their current order.

C# Syntax

    // get accessor
    Object rtn = CollectionItem.SubElements;

    // set accessor
    CollectionItem.SubElements = Object;

Examples

VBScript Example

    set oObject = oRoot.AddGeometry("Cube", "MeshSurface")

    set oItem = CreateObject("XSI.CollectionItem")
    oItem.Value = oObject.FullName & "." & siVertexCluster & "[*]"

    logmessage "all components selected"
    aIndices = oItem.SubElements
    for i = LBound( aIndices, 1 ) to UBound( aIndices, 1 )
    LogMessage "SubComponent[" & i & "] : " & aIndices(i)
    next

    logmessage "subset of components selected"
    oItem.SubElements = Array(0,1,2,4,6)
    aNewIndices = oItem.SubElements
    for i = LBound( aNewIndices, 1 ) to UBound( aNewIndices, 1 )
    LogMessage "SubComponent[" & i & "] : " & aNewIndices (i)
