[CONNECT C++] How to programatically drop a parametric cell from native C++

The Drop Element tool will drop a parametric cell into it's sub-elements if I check the Application Elements option.  Is there a native C++ API that will let me do this from code?

  • Search for Parametric Cells in the MicroStationAPI help doc.  It reveals several useful classes...

    • ParametricCellDefinition
    • ParametricCellDefIterator
    • ParametricCellDefCollection
    • IParametricCellDefEventListener
    • ParametricCellDefHandler
    • ParametricCellInfo
    • ParametricCellHandler

    One or two of the delivered SDK examples deal with parametric solids.  The API is fairly young, and few people have worked with it publicly. 

    The Drop Element tool will drop a parametric cell into it's sub-elements. Is there a native C++ API that will let me do this from code?

    Where to start?  Use ParametricCellHandler and then work your way through the cell components.
