Title: Element composite
Post by: solenn on September 01, 2011, 10:44:51 pm

Hello,

I would like "make composite" an element with c# code.

I have write :

element.Subtype = 8;

After element is composite but when I double clicked, the diagram can be opened. I don't have "OO" in the diagram for the composite element.

Can someone help me?

Thanks a lot,
Solenn

Solenn,

There's more to it then just the element subtype.
Search this forum using the top left button for the terms "make composite" and you should find the whole explanation.

There was an IsComposite property added to the EA.Element class in EA version 9 to help with setting an element as Composite.  See "IsComposite" on the following API reference page:

HTH.
