S/E Tool, Section v. Elevation setting

SeaGeoff — Thu, 21 Sep 2006 21:14:49 GMT

Howdy,
is there any way to access the Section vs. Elevation setting from the Info Box or Floor Plan pane of the settings dialog from within the script? Ideally I'd like to change it based on the state of one of my parameters. TIA.

from the info box: it's hidden under the 'markers' pane disclosure triangle . . .

but you know that, right? did i just completely misunderstand just what you're after?!

I want to know if I can determine the user's choice (section v. elevation) from within the GDL script of the S/E marker. You can get some of these settings, like refer to drawing on/off, via the blue (usually hidden) parameters. I remember someone mentioning that not all the blue parameters available for a given subtype are automatically added to the list.

No they aren't for some reason. Have you tried looking in the library documentation HTML files on Graphisofts site? Start here i think there is some more elsewhere too - its a bloody mess

I can't recall seeing anything on Sect/Elev markers tho
