Copy
public void SetShape(
	IList<GeometryObject> pGeomArr,
	DirectShapeTargetViewType viewType
)

Parameters

pGeomArr  IListGeometryObject
Shape of this object expressed as a collection of GeometryObjects. These will be copied. Shape and Category should be consistent: geometry supplied as shape should be valid for the Category the type object is associated with. For viewType = DirectShapeTargetViewType::Default, the supported types of GeometryObjects are: Solid, Mesh, GeometryInstance, Point and Curve. For viewType = DirectShapeTargetViewType::Plan, the supported types of GeometryObjects are: Point and Curve
viewType  DirectShapeTargetViewType
Specifies which target view type to associate the geometry with. The target view type will decide which views can show this geometry.
Exceptions
ExceptionCondition
ArgumentException At least one member of pGeomArr does not satisfy DirectShapeType validation criteria.
ArgumentNullException A non-optional argument was null
ArgumentOutOfRangeException A value passed for an enumeration argument is not a member of that enumeration
