FabricationPart.AlignPartByConnectorToConnector
Method
Description:
Align a part by its connector to another connector. This will replace the FabricationPart::AlignPartByConnectors method.
Align a part by its connector to another connector. This will replace the FabricationPart::AlignPartByConnectors method.

Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| document | Document | The document. |
| connector | Connector | The connector of the fabrication part to move by in free space. |
| fixedConnector | Connector | The connector for the fabrication part or family connector to align to. |
| rotation | Double | The rotation in radians. |
| slope | Double | The slope value to flex to match if possible in fractional units (eg.1/50). Positive values are up, negative are down. Slopes can only be applied to fittings, whilst straights will inherit the slope from the piece it is connecting to. |
| justification | FabricationPartJustification | The justification to align eccentric parts. |
Return Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Boolean | True if the alignment succeeds, false otherwise and the part will not move from the original position. |
Exceptions
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| ArgumentException | For rectangular and oval parts the axis rotation must be a multiple of PI/2. -or- The connector does not belong to a fabrication part. -or- The fabrication part is connected. |
| ArgumentNullException | A non-optional argument was null |
| ArgumentOutOfRangeException | A value passed for an enumeration argument is not a member of that enumeration |
