MoveNode()

Summary

Changes the location of an endpoint feature in a standard geographic file.

 

Syntax

id = MoveNode(integer ID, coordinate location, array options)

 

Argument	Contents
ID	The ID of the point to move
location	The new location of the point

 

Option	Type	Contents
Reason	String	If provided, a record will be added to the database's log file, with this used as the Reason column. If it's not provided, no entry will be added, even if the other options are present.
Comment	String	Text for the comment field of the log file.

• If any line features are attached to the endpoint, they are updated as well.

• The log file name will have the same name as the database and a .txt extension.

Example

// Move a node to a new location

from_pt = ClickCoord()

to_pt = ClickCoord()

SetLayer("Xsection")

id = RH2ID(LocateNearestRecord(from_pt, 0.25))

MoveNode(id, to_pt, )

 

Error Codes

Error	The current layer is not an endpoint layer, or is not from a standard geographic file
