Unhide

Syntax

SapObject.Unhide

VB6 Procedure

Function Unhide() As Long

Parameters

None

Remarks

This function unhides the Sap2000 application, that is, it makes it visible. When the application is hidden, it is not visible on the screen or on the Windows task bar.

The function returns zero if the Sap2000 application is successfully unhidden (set visible) and nonzero if the function fails. If the application is already visible (not hidden) calling this function returns an error.

VBA Example

Sub UnhideSap()
   'dimension variables
      Dim SapObject As Sap2000.SapObject
      Dim SapModel As cSapModel
      Dim ret as long

   'create Sap2000 object
      Set SapObject = New SAP2000.SapObject

   'start Sap2000 application
      SapObject.ApplicationStart

   'create SapModel object
      Set SapModel = SapObject.SapModel

   'create model from template
      ret = SapModel.File.New2DFrame(ConcentricBraced, 3, 124, 3, 200)

   'hide application
      ret = SapObject.Hide

   'unhide application
      ret = SapObject.Unhide

   'close Sap2000
      SapObject.ApplicationExit False
      Set SapModel = Nothing
      Set SapObject = Nothing
End Sub
