InstanceDefinitionTableAdd Method (String, String, Point3d, IEnumerableGeometryBase, IEnumerableObjectAttributes, Boolean)

public int Add(
	string name,
	string description,
	Point3d basePoint,
	IEnumerable<GeometryBase> geometry,
	IEnumerable<ObjectAttributes> attributes,
	bool overrideExisting
)

Public Function Add ( 
	name As String,
	description As String,
	basePoint As Point3d,
	geometry As IEnumerable(Of GeometryBase),
	attributes As IEnumerable(Of ObjectAttributes),
	overrideExisting As Boolean
) As Integer

Parameters

name

Type: SystemString
The definition name.

description

Type: SystemString
The definition description.

basePoint

Type: Rhino.GeometryPoint3d
A base point.

geometry

Type: System.Collections.GenericIEnumerableGeometryBase
An array, a list or any enumerable set of geometry.

attributes

Type: System.Collections.GenericIEnumerableObjectAttributes
An array, a list or any enumerable set of attributes.

overrideExisting

Type: SystemBoolean
If true and a definition with this name exists, its geometry and description are replaced. The definition keeps its index, id, name, URL and user data, and every existing instance reference keeps its transform. Linked and reference definitions cannot be replaced this way, and -1 is returned for those, as it is for geometry that would make the definition reference itself. If false, a name already in use is an error: -1 is returned and a message naming the definition is printed to the command line.
