Method Detail

updateExtent

void updateExtent(ITrackCancel pTrackCancel)
                  throws IOException,
                         AutomationException

Refresh terrain's extent.

Description

UpdateExtent is used to recalculate the data extent for a windowsize based terrain dataset when the data area has been reduced through editing. It's not needed if the terrain is z-tolerance based. Nor is it needed if the data extent has increased. It's only needed for windowsize terrains with reduced data extents. It needs to be called after the terrain is built (i.e., ITerrainEdit.Build, ITerrain.IsDirty = FALSE.).

UpdateExtent scans through all the terrain data to determine the new extent. It can therefore be expensive in terms of I/O if the terrain is large.

Product Availability

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

Parameters:

pTrackCancel - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.system.ITrackCancel (in)

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.
