Syntax

SapObject.SapModel.GDispl.CountPoint

VB6 Procedure

Function CountPoint(ByVal Name As String, ByRef Count As Long) As Long

Parameters

Name

The name of an existing generalized displacement.

Count

The number of point objects included in the specified generalized displacement.

Remarks

This function retrieves the total number of point objects included in a specified generalized displacement.

The function returns zero if the count is successfully retrieved, otherwise it returns a nonzero value.

VBA Example

Sub CountGDisplPoints()
   'dimension variables
      Dim SapObject As Sap2000.SapObject
      Dim SapModel As cSapModel
      Dim ret As Long
      Dim SF() As Double
      Dim Count 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)

   'add points to generalized displacement
      ReDim SF(5)
      SF(0) = 0.5
      ret = SapModel.GDispl.SetPoint("GD1", "3", SF)
      ret = SapModel.GDispl.SetPoint("GD1", "7", SF)

   'get number of points in generalized displacement
      ret = SapModel.GDispl.CountPoint("GD1", Count)

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