Visual Basic

    Public Function GetMethodPointData( _
       ByVal MethodStart As PointData, _
       ByVal MethodEnd As PointData, _
       ByVal MethodInitTouch As PointData, _
       ByVal MethodEndTouch As PointData, _
       ByVal MethodInitDir As PointData, _
       ByVal MethodInitTopSurf As PointData, _
       ByVal MethodCutPlane As PointData _
    ) As Boolean

# Parameters

MethodStart
  Required PointData object that gets the MethodStart property.
MethodEnd
  Required PointData object that gets the MethodEnd property.
MethodInitTouch
  Required PointData object that gets the MethodInitTouch property.
MethodEndTouch

# Return Type

Boolean value. Boolean returns true if the function succeeds, false if it fails.

# Remarks

If scan is a ScanCommand object, and MS, ME, MIT, MET, MID, and MCP are all Dimensioned as Object, the following are equivalent:

scan.GetMethodParams MS,ME,MIT,MET,MID,MCP

set MS = scan.MethodStart
set ME = scan.MethodEnd
set MIT = scan.MethodInitTouch
set MET = scan.MethodEndTouch
set MID = scan.MethodInitDir
set MCP = scan.MethodCutPlane
