How to set the option "fit to objects" programmatically via SDK

[Tobias Hauß]

Hi all,

 

I would like to set the option "fit to objects" programmatically, but I couldn't find a SDK call. Is there a way to set this option programmatically?

 

Thanks for any help.

Maybe you can try     virtual short VCOM_CALLTYPE ISDK::DoMenuName(const TXString& name, short chunkIndex) = 0;

 

You need to know the universal name of the menu comand. I don't exactly know where you can find it, but maybe somewhere in Vectorworks.vwr.

Otherwise, you probably have to use ISDK::ForEachObjectN to iterate over visible or selected objects, unite their bounding boxes, and then set the view the the bounding box plus a percentage.

Thanks for your answers! "gSDK->DoMenuName("Fit to Objects", 0);" does the trick. 😀
