Parameters

Name

Type: SystemString
The name of an existing link object or group depending on the value of the ItemType item.

Active

Type: SystemBoolean
This is True if advanced local axes exist

AxVectOpt

Type: SystemInt32
This is 1, 2, or 3, indicating the axis reference vector option. This item applies only when the Active item is True.

Value	AxVectOpt
1	Coordinate direction
2	Two joints
3	User vector

AxCSys

Type: SystemString
The coordinate system used to define the axis reference vector coordinate directions and the axis user vector. This item applies when the Active item is True and the AxVectOpt item is 1 or 3.

AxDir

Type: SystemInt32

AxPt

Type: SystemString
This is an array dimensioned to 1 (2 strings), indicating the labels of two joints that define the axis reference vector. Either of these joints may be specified as None to indicate the center of the specified object. If both joints are specified as None, they are not used to define the axis reference vector. This item applies when the Active item is True and the AxVectOpt item is 2.

AxVect

Type: SystemDouble
This is an array dimensioned to 2 (3 doubles) that defines the axis reference vector. This item applies when the Active item is True and the AxVectOpt item is 3.

Plane2

Type: SystemInt32
This is 12 or 13, indicating that the local plane determined by the plane reference vector is the 1-2 or 1-3 plane. This item applies only when the Active item is True.

PlVectOpt

Type: SystemInt32
This is 1, 2, or 3, indicating the plane reference vector option. This item applies only when the Active item is True.

Value	PlVectOpt
1	Coordinate direction
2	Two joints
3	User vector

PlCSys

Type: SystemString

PlDir

Type: SystemInt32

PlPt

Type: SystemString
This is an array dimensioned to 1 (2 strings), indicating the labels of two joints that define the plane reference vector. Either of these joints may be specified as None to indicate the center of the specified object. If both joints are specified as None, they are not used to define the plane reference vector. This item applies when the Active item is True and the PlVectOpt item is 2.

PlVect

Type: SystemDouble
This is an array dimensioned to 2 (3 doubles) that defines the plane reference vector. This item applies when the Active item is True and the PlVectOpt item is 3.

ItemType (Optional)

Type: ETABS2016eItemType
This is one of the items in the eItemType enumeration.

If this item is Objects, the assignment is made to the link object specified by the Name item.

If this item is Group, the assignment is made to the all link objects in the group specified by the Name item.

If this item is SelectedObjects, the assignment is made to all selected link objects, and the Name item is ignored.

Return Value
