Layer Properties

The Layer type exposes the following members.

Properties
  NameDescription

Gets or sets the display color for this layer.
Public propertyComponentStatus
Gets or sets the status of the layer.
(Overrides ModelComponentComponentStatus.)
Public propertyComponentType
Returns Layer.
(Overrides ModelComponentComponentType.)
Public propertyDeletedName
Gets the name of a component that is deleted.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyDisposed
Indicates if this object has been disposed or the document it originally belonged to has been disposed.
(Inherited from CommonObject.)
Public propertyCode exampleFullPath
Gets the full path to this layer. The full path includes nesting information.
Public propertyHasId
Returns a value indicating whether the component has an ID.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyHasIndex
Returns a value indicating whether the component has an Index.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyHasName
Returns a value indicating whether the component has a Name.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyHasUserData
Gets true if this class has any custom information attached to it through UserData.
(Inherited from CommonObject.)
Public propertyId
Gets or sets the ID of this layer object. You typically do not need to assign a custom ID.
(Overrides ModelComponentId.)
Public propertyIdIsLocked
Returns a value indicating whether the component ID is already locked.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyIgesLevel
Gets or sets the IGES level for this layer.
Public propertyIndex
Gets or sets the model component index attribute.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyIndexIsLocked
Returns a value indicating whether the component Index is already locked.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyInstanceDefinitionModelSerialNumber
When a component is in a model as part of the information required for a linked instance definition, this value identifies the linked instance definition reference model.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyIsComponentStatusLocked
The component status itself can be locked. This returns an indication.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyIsDeleted
Gets a value indicating whether this layer has been deleted and is currently in the Undo buffer.
Public propertyIsDocumentControlled

Public propertyIsExpanded
Gets or sets a value indicating whether this layer is expanded in the Rhino Layer dialog.
Public propertyCode exampleIsLocked
Gets or sets a value indicating the locked state of this layer.
Public propertyIsReference
Gets a value indicting whether this layer is a referenced layer. Referenced layers are part of referenced documents.
Public propertyIsSystemComponent
True if this model component is a system constant.

An incomplete list of system constant model components is below:

  • ON_ModelComponent::Unset

  • ON_InstanceDefinition::Empty

  • ON_Linetype::Unset
  • ON_Linetype::Continuous
  • ON_Linetype::ByLayer
  • ON_Linetype::ByParent

  • ON_Layer::Unset
  • ON_Layer::Default

  • ON_TextStyle::Unset
  • ON_TextStyle::Default
  • ON_TextStyle::ByLayer
  • ON_TextStyle::ByParent

  • ON_DimStyle::Unset
  • ON_DimStyle::Default
  • ON_DimStyle::DefaultInchDecimal
  • ON_DimStyle::DefaultInchFractional
  • ON_DimStyle::DefaultFootInchArchitecture
  • ON_DimStyle::DefaultMillimeterSmall
  • ON_DimStyle::DefaultMillimeterLarge
  • ON_DimStyle::DefaultMillimeterArchitecture
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyIsValid
Tests an object to see if it is valid.
(Inherited from CommonObject.)
Public propertyIsVisible
Gets or sets the visibility of this layer.
Public propertyLayerIndex Obsolete.
Gets or sets the index of this layer.
Public propertyLinetypeIndex
Gets or sets the line-type index for this layer.
Public propertyModelSerialNumber
A value identifying the model that manages this component.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyCode exampleName
Gets or sets the name of this layer.
(Overrides ModelComponentName.)
Public propertyNameIsLocked
Returns a value indicating whether the component Name is already locked.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyCode exampleParentLayerId
Gets the ID of the parent layer. Layers can be organized in a hierarchical structure, in which case this returns the parent layer ID. If the layer has no parent, Guid.Empty will be returned.
Public propertyStatic memberPathSeparator
The string "::" (colon,colon) is used to separate parent and child layer names.
Public propertyPlotColor
Gets or sets the plot color for this layer.
Public propertyPlotWeight
Gets or sets the weight of the plotting pen in millimeters. A weight of 0.0 indicates the "default" pen weight should be used. A weight of -1.0 indicates the layer should not be printed.
Public propertyReferenceModelSerialNumber
When a component is in a model for reference, this value identifies the reference model.
(Inherited from ModelComponent.)
Public propertyRenderMaterial
Gets or sets the RenderMaterial for objects on this layer that have MaterialSource() == MaterialFromLayer. A null result indicates that no RenderMaterial has been assigned and the material created by the default Material constructor or the RenderMaterialIndex should be used.
Public propertyRenderMaterialIndex
Gets or sets the index of render material for objects on this layer that have MaterialSource() == MaterialFromLayer. A material index of -1 indicates no material has been assigned and the material created by the default Material constructor should be used.
Public propertySortIndex
Runtime index used to sort layers in layer dialog.
Public propertyUserData
List of custom information that is attached to this class.
(Inherited from CommonObject.)
Public propertyUserDictionary
Dictionary of custom information attached to this class. The dictionary is actually user data provided as an easy to use sharable set of information.
(Inherited from CommonObject.)
Public propertyUserStringCount
