Handle creation

The general creation of a handle for a PythonPart parameter like

<Parameter>

<Name>SlopeX</Name>

…

<ValueType>Length</ValueType>

</Parameter>

can be done with the class HandleProperties as follows:

handle_slope = HandleProperties("Slope",
                                point1 + AllplanGeo.Point3D(build_ele.SlopeX.value, build_ele.SlopeY.value, 0),
                                point1,
                                [HandleParameterData("SlopeX", HandleParameterType.X_DISTANCE, show_input_controls),
                                HandleParameterData("SlopeY", HandleParameterType.Y_DISTANCE, show_input_controls)],
                                HandleDirection.XYZ_DIR, False)

handle_slope.info_text = "Slope handle"

handle_list.append(handle_slope)

If the parameter is a Python list e.g. of Point3D like

<Parameter>

<Name>PolyPoints</Name>

…

<Value>[Point3D(500,-2000,0);Point3D(1000,-4000,0);Point3D(5000,-5000,0);Point3D(5000,-1000,0)]</Value>

<ValueType>Point3D</ValueType>

</Parameter>

the handle must be assigned to an index of the list:

for index, pnt in enumerate(build_ele.PolyPoints.value):
    handle_list.append(HandleProperties("PolyPoints", pnt, AllplanGeo.Point3D(),
                                            [HandleParameterData("PolyPoints", HandleParameterType.POINT, False,
                                                                    list_index = index)],
                                                HandleDirection.XYZ_DIR))

The examples in the Examples section describe the handle creation in more specific details.
