I'm a student and I have a question. Could you please explain how to use the method "ProXsecCompXhatchStyleSet"? I want to change the pattern of the section lines in the perspective view, but I'm not sure how to use this API or how to use other related APIs. Can someone help me?

int n_xsec_items = 0;

status = ProArraySizeGet((ProArray)xsec_item_arr, &n_xsec_items);

for (int ii = 0; ii < n_xsec_items; ii++)

{

status = ProXSectionItemXhatchStyleSet(xsec_item_arr[ii], item.view, L"Wood", &p_xhatch_style);

}

status = ProXSectionItemsArrFree((ProXSectionItem**)&xsec_item_arr);

ProXsecRegenerate(&p_xsec);
