SyntaxThe TextNote type exposes the following members.
Properties| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | AssemblyInstanceId |
The id of the assembly instance to which the element belongs.
(Inherited from Element) |
| BaseDirection |
Direction of the base line of the text element.
(Inherited from TextElement) |
 | BoundingBox | Retrieves a box that circumscribes all geometry of the element. (Inherited from Element) |
| Category | Retrieves a Category object that represents the category or sub category in which the
element resides. (Inherited from Element) |
| Coord |
Position of the text (in model coordinates.)
(Inherited from TextElement) |
| CreatedPhaseId |
Id of a Phase at which the Element was created.
(Inherited from Element) |
| DemolishedPhaseId |
Id of a Phase at which the Element was demolished.
(Inherited from Element) |
| DesignOption | Returns the design option to which the element belongs. (Inherited from Element) |
| Document | Returns the Document in which the Element resides. (Inherited from Element) |
| Geometry | Retrieves the geometric representation of the element. (Inherited from Element) |
| GroupId |
The id of the group to which an element belongs.
(Inherited from Element) |
| Height |
Height of the area of the text content.
(Inherited from TextElement) |
| HorizontalAlignment |

(Inherited from TextElement) |
| Id |

(Inherited from Element) |
| IsModifiable |

(Inherited from Element) |
| IsTextWrappingActive | A flag identifying whether text-wrapping is currently active in this text element or not. If text wrapping is active the width of the text box remains constant and the text will wrap. The height of the text box will automatically adjust to accomodate the height of the text. If text wrapping is not active the text does not wrap and the width of the text box adjusts with the width of the longest line of text. As the text width changes, the position of the text may change depending on the HorizontalAlignment (Inherited from TextElement) |
