int

Remarks

Please refer to the SubtypeN entries in the SPACE.INI file for the list of available catalog subtypes on your system (e.g. 1 for "Facades", 2 for "Carcasses", 3 for "Accessories", etc.). The integer value of a subtype is defined after its name (and a comma, e.g. in Subtype1=Carcasses, 2 the subtype is 2, while subtype rank is 1).

Subtype rank is zero-based, while Space.ini records are 1-based. But the 0 subtype rank belongs to the build-in None value, which is not listed in the Space.ini. Because of that, subtype ranks correspond exactly to Space.ini records, which means that a name for the subtype with rank 1 can be obtained by reading Subtype1 value of the corresponding topic section.
