com.esri.arcgis.carto
Interface IDimensionFeature

All Superinterfaces:
Serializable
All Known Implementing Classes:
DimensionFeature
public interface IDimensionFeature
extends Serializable

Provides access to members that control a dimension feature.

Description

The IDimensionFeature interface provides properties for setting the style and placement of a DimensionFeature.

Remarks

The StyleID property should be a valid ID from the class’s DimensionStyles collection. If the current ID is invalid, the DimensionFeature will draw its boundary in red. The DimensionShape property defines the placement of the elements of a DimensionFeature. The location and size of the DimensionFeature is determined entirely by the DimensionShape and it is not necessary to use the IFeature::Shape property. The DimensionType property defines the type of the Dimension as Linear or Aligned and affects how the EditTool behaves with the DimensionFeature during shape modification. The DimensionLineDisplay, ExtensionLineDisplay, and MarkerDisplay properties are values that override the values of the current DimensionStyle. A custom value for the DimensionFeature’s text can be set using the CustomLength property and by setting the UseCustomLength property to True.

Example:

  
// This example assumes a reference to an IdimensionFeature (pDimensionFeature)…
IDimensionFeature pDimensionFeature = null;   
pDimensionFeature.setCustomLength(5.5);   
pDimensionFeature.setUseCustomLength(true);   
IFeature pFeature = new IFeatureProxy(pDimensionFeature);   
pFeature.store();

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.
