API_FilltypeType Struct Reference

Fill type attribute representation. More...

#include <APIdefs_Attributes.h>

Public Attributes
API_Attr_Head	head
	Contains the name and the index of the fill. The flags field tells whether the fill is for drafting, cover, or cut fills, and scales with the plan or scale-independent.
API_FillSubtype	subType
	Describes the type of the fill. The possible values are enumerated in API_FillSubtype .
bool	isPercentFill
	Indicates a "percent" fill, e.g. 100%, 75%. This is an output-only parameter; detected from the bitmap pattern.
API_Pattern	bitPat
	Pattern of the fill. It is an eight-character constant; the first character corresponds to the the first line of the pattern, the second character to the second, etc. Example: the bitPat 0x8080808F888888F8 means the following pattern: 0x80 *----—.
double	hXSpac
	The fill's spacing factor in the X direction.
double	hYSpac
	The fill's spacing factor in the Y direction.
double	hAngle
	The angle of the fill.
Int32	linNumb
	The number of fill line items.
Int32	hotNumb
	The number of hotspot items (symbol fill only).
Int32	arcNumb
	The number of arc items (symbol fill only).
Int32	filNumb
	The number of simple fill items (symbol fill only).
API_Coord	c1
	The symbol fill offset. Corresponds to the X1, Y1 values in the Fill Types dialog.
API_Coord	c2
	The symbol fill offset. Corresponds to the X2, Y2 values in the Fill Types dialog.
GS::uchar_t	textureName [API_UniLongNameLen]
	The name of the texture file.
short	textureStatus
	Texture status: APITxtr_MirrorY | APITxtr_MirrorX .
double	textureXSize
	The horizontal (x) size of the texture.
double	textureYSize
	The vertical (y) size of the texture.
double	textureRotAng
	The rotation angle of the texture in radians.
double	percent
	Percent of the translucent fill.

Detailed Description

Fill type attribute representation.

Remarks

The flags field of the header can take the following values:

Value	Description
APIFill_ScaleWithPlan	The fill type is scale dependent.
APIFill_ForWall	This fill can be used for cut fills.
APIFill_ForPoly	This fill can be used for drafting fills.
APIFill_ForCover	This fill can be used for cover fills.

The subType of the fill can take the following values:

Value	Description
APIFill_Vector	Vectorial fill.
APIFill_Symbol	Symbol fill.
APIFill_Solid	Solid fill. Only one solid fill may exist for polygons, and one for walls.
APIFill_Empty	Empty fill. Only one empty fill may exist for polygons, and one for walls.
APIFill_LinearGradient	Linear gradient fill.
APIFill_RadialGradient	Radial gradient fill.
APIFill_Image	Image fill.

Most of the fields in this structure correspond to the items of the Fill Types dialog in Archicad. There is additional data assigned to fill attributes in the API_AttributeDef structure; the definition of a fill is passed through the fill_lineItems and fill_lineLength fields. Refer to the API_FillLine structure to get more details on them. Note that in AC17 the Energy Evaluation property parameters (thermalConductivity, density and heatCapacity) have been removed from this structure; they are now part of API_BuildingMaterialType.
