FaceStyle

The FaceStyle type is used to create a combo box for a face style selection. The result assigned to the parameter is the integer value associated with the selected face style.

Syntax

<Parameter>
<Name>FaceStyle</Name>
<Text>FaceStyle</Text>
<Value>-1</Value>
<ValueType>FaceStyle</ValueType>
</Parameter>

If the <Value> tag is assigned the value -1, the parameter is initialized with the face style currently used in Allplan.

Optional tags

If the PythonPart should be localized, the following tag must be added

<TextId>1001</TextId>

Sometimes it’s useful to disable or hide the combo box depending on the value of another parameter. This is achieved by adding additional tags to the parameter or by defining functions in the py-file. See Enable and visible options

The persistent state of the parameter can be changed by adding

<Persistent></Persistent>

Example

The implementation of the FaceStyle value type is described in the example AllControls, which is located in
