GetPoint.PermitFromOption

Public Class

Control the availability of the built-in “From” option. By default, the “From” option is enabled.

Namespace: Rhino.Input.Custom

Assembly: RhinoCommon (in RhinoCommon.dll)

**Since:**5.0

Syntax

public void PermitFromOption(
  bool permit
)

Parameters

permit

Type:System.Boolean
if true, then the “From” option is automatically available in GetPoint.

Remarks

The GetPoint “From” option is never visible on the command line and the user must type the complete option name to activate the “From” option. When the GetPoint “From” snap is enabled, the user set/change the base point during GetPoint by typing “From” and picking a point. A related option is the built-in distance from base point constraint that is can be set before GetPoint is called by passing a value to GetPoint::ConstrainDistanceFromBasePoint or during GetPoint by entering a number.
