Method Summary


`xintsequence_ptr`	`GetComponentIds ()`
`void`	`SetComponentIds (xintsequence_ptr value)`
	This method is enabled for Creo Direct. The path from the root assembly to the component through various subassembliescontaining this component. Each element of this sequence is an identifierof a component feature in its parent assembly.

`xbool`	`GetIsVisible (optional pfcSimpRep_ptr InRep)`
	This method is enabled for Creo Direct. Returns a flag indicating whether a given component is visible in a simplified representation.

`pfcSolid_ptr`	`GetLeaf ()`
	This method is enabled for Creo Direct. The model associated with the component the path points to

`pfcAssembly_ptr`	`GetRoot ()`
`void`	`SetRoot (pfcAssembly_ptr value)`
	This method is enabled for Creo Direct. The root assembly

`pfcTransform3D_ptr`	`GetTransform (xbool BottomUp)`
	This method is enabled for Creo Direct. Retrieves the transformation matrix from the coordinate system of the root assemby to the coordinate system of the model pointed to by the component path, or from the coordinate system of the model to the coordinate system of the root assembly.

	This method is enabled for Creo Direct.

	This method is enabled for Creo Direct.

`void`	`SetTransform (xbool BottomUp, pfcTransform3D_ptr position)`
	This method is enabled for Creo Direct. Sets the position of the component described by the component path.

pfcTransform3D_ptr GetTransform (xbool BottomUp)

This method is enabled for Creo Direct.

Retrieves the transformation matrix from the coordinate system of the root assemby to the coordinate system of the model pointed to by the component path, or from the coordinate system of the model to the coordinate system of the root assembly.

Manual References:: Windows and Views: Transformations, Assemblies and Components: Component Path Information, Assemblies and Components: Component Path Information

Parameters:

BottomUp: If you request the transformation from the model to theassembly, this is true. Otherwise, this is false.

Returns:: The transformation matrix

void SetTransform (xbool BottomUp, pfcTransform3D_ptr position)

This method is enabled for Creo Direct.

Sets the position of the component described by the component path.

The component will be temporarily moved to the new location without affecting its constraints or actual position. Takes effect only when the assembly is using DynamicPositioning.

Parameters:

BottomUp: true if the transformation is from the member to the assembly, false if the transformation is from the assembly to the member.
position: The location of the member with respect to the root assembly.

Returns:

xbool GetIsVisible (optional pfcSimpRep_ptr InRep)

This method is enabled for Creo Direct.

Returns a flag indicating whether a given component is visible in a simplified representation.

Exceptions thrown (but not limited to):

pfcXToolkitBadContext - The assembly is in the master representation.

Manual References:: Assemblies and Components: Component Path Information, Assemblies and Components: Component Path Information

Parameters:

InRep: The simplfied representation, or null, to use the active representation.

Returns:: true if the component is visible, false otherwise.
