-
Framing type
- 0 = Program Default
- 1 = Sway special

- 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 frame object
specified by the Name item.
If this item is Group, the assignment is made to all frame objects
in the group specified by the Name item.
If this item is SelectedObjects, the assignment is made to all
selected frame objects and the Name item is ignored.
Return Value
Returns zero if the item is successfully set;
otherwise it returns a nonzero value.
