CanLockSection Method

In This Topic

Determines whether a section can be locked. Sections are locked to the current variable profile. This method must be called on the MCT. Use QueuedTask.Run.

Syntax

C#
Visual Basic (Declaration)

public bool CanLockSection( 
   SectionDefinition sectionDef
)

Public Function CanLockSection( _
   ByVal sectionDef As SectionDefinition _
) As Boolean

Parameters

sectionDef: The definition of the section to determine whether it can be locked

Return Value

True if the specified section can be locked.

Exceptions

Exception	Description
ArcGIS.Core.CalledOnWrongThreadException	This method or property must be called within the lambda passed to QueuedTask.Run
System.ArgumentException	Section is null
System.ArgumentException	Section not found in the collection of sections

Remarks

For a section to be lockable it must at least be partially within the sliced volume.

Example

Lock a Section/"Create" a Locked Section

      //var voxelLayer = ... ;
      //Must be on the QueuedTask.Run()

      if (voxelLayer.Visualization != VoxelVisualization.Surface)
          voxelLayer.SetVisualization(VoxelVisualization.Surface);
      voxelLayer.SetSectionContainerExpanded(true);
      voxelLayer.SetLockedSectionContainerExpanded(true);
      voxelLayer.SetLockedSectionContainerVisibility(true);

      //Use the SelectedVariableProfile to get the sections
      //via its associated volume
      var volume = voxelLayer.SelectedVariableProfile.Volume;

      //get the selected section
      var section = MapView.Active.GetSelectedSections().FirstOrDefault();
      if (section == null)
{
          //At 2.x - section = voxelLayer.GetSections().FirstOrDefault();
          section = volume.GetSections().FirstOrDefault();
      }

      if (section == null)
          return;

      //Lock the section (Creates a locked section, deletes
      //the section)
      //if (voxelLayer.CanLockSection(section))
      //    voxelLayer.LockSection(section);
      if (volume.CanLockSection(section))
          volume.LockSection(section);

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8.1
