Parameters

Position

An IPosition61 representing the position and orientation of the pyramid on the terrain.

ObjectWidth

The width of the pyramid in meters.

ObjectDepth

The depth of the pyramid in meters.

ObjectHeight

The height of the pyramid in meters.

LineColor

The color of the lines that make up the pyramid. The color value is used to specify color and transparency values. This parameter can be any of the following:

·         An IColor61 object.

·         A number which represents the color in ABGR format (0xAABBGGRR). The low-order byte contains a value for the relative intensity of red; the second byte contains a value for green; the third byte contains a value for blue. The high-order byte contains a value for alpha.

·         A string that represents HTML color format (“#RRGGBB”).

FillColor

The color which fills the pyramid, if the alpha value is greater than zero. The color value is used to specify color and transparency values. This parameter can be any of the following:

·         An IColor61 object.

·         A number which represents the color in ABGR format (0xAABBGGRR). The low-order byte contains a value for the relative intensity of red; the second byte contains a value for green; the third byte contains a value for blue. The high-order byte contains a value for alpha.

·         A string that represents HTML color format (“#RRGGBB”).

GroupID

The Project Tree group in which the pyramid is created. If it is set to zero, the object is created under the root. You can obtain the GroupID by one of the following methods:

§  Create the group using IProjectTree61.CreateGroup.

§  Find the group, if you know the name, using IProjectTree61.FindItem.

§  Traverse the Tree using IProjectTree61 methods such as GetNextItem (), until you come to the desired GroupID.

Description

The name of the pyramid as it appears in the Project Tree. If an empty string is passed into this parameter, TerraExplorer assigns it a unique name.

Return Value

pITerrain3DRectBase61

An ITerrain3DRectBase61 representing the newly created pyramid.

Exceptions
