Examples

The following example shows how to convert an object's dimension from catalog units to scene units.

public bool OnObjectPlaceAfter(int unused)
{
    var appli = new Appli();
    Scene scene = appli.Scene;

    Scene.Object placedObject = appli.CallParamsInfo.ActiveObject;

    double objectDimensionInSceneUnits
        = scene.UnitConvertFrom(
            placedObject.Unit, placedObject.DimensionX);

    // The following code does exact the same conversion as previous
    objectDimensionInSceneUnits = Appli.UnitConvert(
            placedObject.Unit, scene.Unit, placedObject.DimensionX);

    MessageBox.Show("Object's dimension in scene unit is: "
        + objectDimensionInSceneUnits.ToString()
        + scene.Unit.ToString());

    return true;
}
