Syntax

SapObject.SapModel.GDispl.Add

VB6 Procedure

Function Add(ByVal Name As String, ByVal MyType As Long) As Long

Parameters

Name

The name of a new generalized displacement.

MyType

This is 1 or 2 indicating the generalized displacement type.

1 = Translational

2 = Rotational

Remarks

This function adds a new generalized displacement with the specified name and type.

The function returns zero if the generalized displacement is successfully added, otherwise it returns a nonzero value.

The new generalized displacement must have a different name from all other generalized displacements. If the name is not unique, an error will be returned.

VBA Example

Sub AddNewGDispl()
   '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

   'initialize model
      ret = SapModel.InitializeNewModel

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

   'add generalized displacement
      ret = SapModel.GDispl.Add("GD1", 1)

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