IAppearance_DG Interface

IAppearance_DG gives access to the generic (base) appearance attribute of an entity. It can be used directly to change attributes of 0-dimentional entities which consist of a single point or a set (array/list) of points.

Objects with 1-dimensional geometry (IGeometry_DG.GetDimension()==EDim_DG.e1D) also implement ILineStyle_KC, which can be queried from this interface and exposes more attributes.

Objects with surface ((IGeometry_DG.GetDimension()==EDim_DG.e2D) also implement IMaterial, which can be queried from this interface and handles surface-related attributes.

IAppearance_DG is returned by IEntity_DG.GetAppearance()

void SetColor(float red, float green, float blue)


void GetColor([out] float red, [out] float green, [out] float blue)


float GetPointWidth()


void SetPointWidth(float width)


EDim_DG GetDimension()

Identifies the actual type of the object implementing this interface. Return e2D means that IMaterial can be queried from this interface. Return e1D means that ILineStyle_KC can be queried from this interface.
