Parameters
- Name
- Type:
System String
The name of an existing area object or group, depending on the value
of the ItemType item.
- IsOpening
- Type: System Boolean
This item should be set to True if the specified area object(s) is to be an opening,
otherwise it should be False.
- ItemType (Optional)
- Type: ETABS2015 eItemType
This is one of the following items in the eItemType enumeration:
- Object = 0
- Group = 1
- SelectedObjects = 2
If this item is Objects, the assignment is made to the area object
specified by the Name item.
If this item is Group, the assignment is made to all area objects
in the group specified by the Name item.
If this item is SelectedObjects, the assignment is made to all selected
area objects, and the Name item is ignored.
Return Value
Returns zero if the opening is successfully assigned;
otherwise it returns a nonzero value.
