CreateSectionViewAt6

Hi all,

Try searching this method "CreateSectionViewAt6" in API help, its not there, but when you record a macro to create a section view, it is using this method with different number of arguments than CreateSectionViewAt5.

Basically I am not able to create a section view of assembly with some parts excluded. Passing the components object for the argument "ExcludedComponents" is not giving me any different result at all.

Code I am writing is:

Status = DrawDoc.ActivateView("View1")

    swView = DrawDoc.ActiveDrawingView

        swSketchSegment = ModelDoc.SketchManager.CreateLine(X1, Y1, 0.0#, X2, Y2, 0.0#)

  Dim excludedComponents As Object

        excludedComponents = GetExcludeComp(swView)

        swView = DrawDoc.CreateSectionViewAt5(0.2, 0.14, 0, "A", 1, excludedComponents, 0)

        swSectionView = swView.GetSection

        ' Set some section-view settings

        swSectionView.SetAutoHatch(True)

        swSectionView.SetLabel2("A")

        swSectionView.SetDisplayOnlySurfaceCut(False)

        swSectionView.SetPartialSection(True)

        swSectionView.SetReversedCutDirection(True)

        swSectionView.SetScaleWithModelChanges(True)

        swSectionView.CutSurfaceBodies = True

        swSectionView.DisplaySurfaceBodies = True

        swSectionView.ExcludeSliceSectionBodies = True

        swSectionView.SetExcludedComponents(excludedComponents)

        ModelDoc.ForceRebuild3(False)

Private Function GetExcludeComp(swView As View) As Object

        Dim RefComp As Object

        Dim RefModelDoc As ModelDoc2 = swView.ReferencedDocument

        Dim AssmDoc As AssemblyDoc

        If RefModelDoc.GetType = swDocumentTypes_e.swDocASSEMBLY Then

            AssmDoc = RefModelDoc

            RefComp = AssmDoc.GetComponents(False)

        End If

        Dim ExcludeComp(0) As Object

        Dim Count As Integer = 0

        For Each Comp As Component2 In RefComp

           'ReDim Preserve ExcludeComp(Count)

            If Not Comp.Name2.Equals(UCase(Part) & "-1") Then

                ExcludeComp(Count) = Comp ' Adding all Components other that "Part-1"

                Count += 1

            End If

        Next

        Return ExcludeComp

    End Function
