how to move or copy a line parallely at a distance of 1.28m in VBA ?
Regards, Jon Summers LA Solutions
Please post questions about MicroStation VBA to the VBA Forum .
The algorithm mentioned by Jon is only true for a single line !
If you need to create parallels for polygons you have to copy each segment and trim the endpoints to the next connection. Or you have to find a way to use mdlElmdscr_copyParallel (there are some hints on how to use mdl calls in VBA in the mentioned forum)
In each case you have to define the upward vector (normal vector) of the line(s).
