Reorder a feature to first position

[Eike_Hauptmann]

System : Wildfire 4

Hi @ all,

I try to create a coordinate system and reorder it to the first position in the model tree. The creation is no problem. After that i create an array and shift the newly created feature up to position two.

So I want to get it to position one, but thats not possible.

I can also reorder all other features to the last number. But if there are references between these features I get a failure while reorder.

Have someone an idea how to solve this problem?

Code:

ids[0] = newFeat.id;

tkerr = ProFeatureReorder((ProSolid)mdl, ids, 1, 2);

free(ids);

So I use this to get it to number 2 in tree, but number 1 is not possible (Error: -2 BAD_INPUTS). Every other number is possible.

tkerr = ProFeatureReorder((ProSolid)mdl, ids, idCount, idCount+1);

free(ids);

So the other solution I tested.

Thx for your answers,

best regards,

Eike

Ok ... I found a solution.

I create the feature as last feature, Move it to position 2 and then move feature one to position 2.

After that the new feature is on position 1.

Perfect. : )

If you need it remember that groups and group patterns can be also be the first feature.

Best reagards,

Eike,
What I have done in the past is set the insertion point with ProFeatureInsertModeActivate() before I create the new feature.

Hi Patrick,

thats right. I test with that command,too. But the problem is that you can't set the insert mode at the first feature position. You also can't set it there manually.
