DataElementsOnly Property

In This Topic

Gets and sets whether the filter should return elements classified as "inside" only. Default value is false.

Syntax

C#
Visual Basic (Declaration)

public bool DataElementsOnly {get; set;}

Public Property DataElementsOnly As Boolean

Remarks

TIN elements can exist "inside" or "outside" the TIN's data area. When TINs are initially built the only elements that are "outside" are the four super nodes and their incident edges and triangles. If clip or erase polygons are added to a TIN, they further modify what is considered to be "inside" or "outside".

Use this property in conjunction with the FilterType and the FilterEnvelope properties to determine the elements retrieved.

Example

Seach for TIN Nodes, Edges, Triangles

// search all "inside" nodes
using (ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinNodeCursor nodeCursor = tinLayer.SearchNodes(null))
{
  while (nodeCursor.MoveNext())
  {
    using (ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinNode node = nodeCursor.Current)
    {

    }
  }
}

// search "inside" nodes with an extent
ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinNodeFilter nodeFilter = new ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinNodeFilter();
nodeFilter.FilterEnvelope = envelope;
using (ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinNodeCursor nodeCursor = tinLayer.SearchNodes(nodeFilter))
{
  while (nodeCursor.MoveNext())
  {
    using (ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinNode node = nodeCursor.Current)
    {

    }
  }
}

// search for super nodes only
var supernodeFilter = new ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinNodeFilter();
supernodeFilter.FilterEnvelope = tinDataset.GetSuperNodeExtent();
supernodeFilter.DataElementsOnly = false;
supernodeFilter.SuperNode = true;
using (ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinNodeCursor nodeCursor = tinLayer.SearchNodes(nodeFilter))
{
  while (nodeCursor.MoveNext())
  {
    using (ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinNode node = nodeCursor.Current)
    {

    }
  }
}


// search all edges within an extent
//    this could include outside or edges attached to super nodes depending upon the extent
ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinEdgeFilter edgeFilterAll = new ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinEdgeFilter();
edgeFilterAll.FilterEnvelope = envelope;
edgeFilterAll.DataElementsOnly = false;
using (ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinEdgeCursor edgeCursor = tinLayer.SearchEdges(edgeFilterAll))
{
  while (edgeCursor.MoveNext())
  {
    using (ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinEdge edge = edgeCursor.Current)
    {
    }
  }
}


// search for hard edges in the TIN
var edgeFilter = new ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinEdgeFilter();
edgeFilter.FilterByEdgeType = true;
edgeFilter.EdgeType = ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinEdgeType.HardEdge;
using (ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinEdgeCursor edgeCursor = tinLayer.SearchEdges(edgeFilter))
{
  while (edgeCursor.MoveNext())
  {
    using (ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinEdge edge = edgeCursor.Current)
    {

    }
  }
}


// search for "inside" triangles in an extent
ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinTriangleFilter triangleFilter = new ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinTriangleFilter();
triangleFilter.FilterEnvelope = envelope;
triangleFilter.DataElementsOnly = true;
using (ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinTriangleCursor triangleCursor = tinLayer.SearchTriangles(triangleFilter))
{
  while (triangleCursor.MoveNext())
  {
    using (ArcGIS.Core.Data.Analyst3D.TinTriangle triangle = triangleCursor.Current)
    {
    }
  }
}
