The ProxyObject type exposes the following members.

Properties
  NameDescription
Public propertyAttributes
Gets or sets the object attributes.
(Inherited from RhinoObject.)
Public propertyComponentStatus
Gets or sets the component status of the model component.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyComponentType
Returns ModelGeometry.
(Inherited from RhinoObject.)
Public propertyDeletedName
Gets the name of a component that is deleted.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyDisposed
Indicates if this object has been disposed or the document it originally belonged to has been disposed.
(Inherited from CommonObject.)
Public propertyDocument
Gets the document that owns this object.
(Inherited from RhinoObject.)
Public propertyGeometry
Gets the underlying geometry for this object.

All rhino objects are composed of geometry and attributes.

(Inherited from RhinoObject.)
Public propertyGripsOn
Gets or sets the activation state of object default editing grips.
(Inherited from RhinoObject.)
Public propertyGripsSelected
true if grips are turned on and at least one is selected.
(Inherited from RhinoObject.)
Public propertyGroupCount
Number of groups object belongs to.
(Inherited from RhinoObject.)
Public propertyHasDynamicTransform
True if the object has a dynamic transformation
(Inherited from RhinoObject.)
Public propertyHasId
Returns a value indicating whether the component has an ID.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyHasIndex
Returns a value indicating whether the component has an Index.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyHasName
Returns a value indicating whether the component has a Name.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyHasSubobjectMaterials
Will be true if the object contains sub object meshes with materials that are different than the top level object.
(Inherited from RhinoObject.)
Public propertyHasUserData
Gets true if this class has any custom information attached to it through UserData.
(Inherited from CommonObject.)
Public propertyId
Every object has a Guid (globally unique identifier, also known as UUID, or universally unique identifier). The default value is Guid.Empty.

When an object is added to a model, the value is checked. If the value is Guid.Empty, a new Guid is created. If the value is not null but it is already used by another object in the model, a new Guid is created. If the value is not Guid.Empty and it is not used by another object in the model, then that value persists. When an object is updated, by a move for example, the value of ObjectId persists.

This value is the same as the one returned by this.Attributes.ObjectId.

(Inherited from RhinoObject.)
Public propertyIdIsLocked
Returns a value indicating whether the component ID is already locked.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyIndex
Gets or sets the model component index attribute.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyIndexIsLocked

(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyIsDeletable

Public propertyIsDeleted
true if the object is deleted. Deleted objects are kept by the document for undo purposes. Call RhinoDoc.UndeleteObject to undelete an object.
(Inherited from RhinoObject.)
Public propertyIsDocumentControlled
If true this object may not be modified. Any properties or functions that attempt to modify this object when it is set to "IsReadOnly" will throw a NotSupportedException.
(Inherited from CommonObject.)
Public propertyIsHidden
An object must be in one of three modes: normal, locked or hidden. If an object is in normal mode, then the object's layer controls visibility and selectability. If an object is locked, then the object's layer controls visibility by the object cannot be selected. If the object is hidden, it is not visible and it cannot be selected.
(Inherited from RhinoObject.)
Public propertyIsInstanceDefinitionGeometry

If an object is locked, then the object's layer controls visibility by the object cannot be selected. If the object is hidden, it is not visible and it cannot be selected.
(Inherited from RhinoObject.)
Public propertyIsNormal
An object must be in one of three modes: normal, locked or hidden. If an object is in normal mode, then the object's layer controls visibility and selectability. If an object is locked, then the object's layer controls visibility by the object cannot be selected. If the object is hidden, it is not visible and it cannot be selected.
