Description

Applies a parametric constraint to the referenced object. The geometry of the constraint is defined by the specified object vertices.

FUNCTION SetSingularConstraint(
				typeOfConstraint : INTEGER;
				h                : HANDLE;
				vertexA          : INTEGER;
				vertexB          : INTEGER): BOOLEAN;

def vs.SetSingularConstraint(typeOfConstraint, h, vertexA, vertexB):
    return BOOLEAN

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
typeOfConstraint	INTEGER	Type of constraint to be applied.
h	HANDLE	Handle to object accepting constraint.
vertexA	INTEGER	Vertex defining the constraint geometry.
vertexB	INTEGER	Vertex defining the constraint geometry.

Remarks

Sets a constraint of type typeOfConstraint on the object h. The valid values for typeOfConstraint are 4 (vertical), 5 (horizontal), 8 (distance), 9 (vertical distance), 10 (horizontal distance) and 11 (radius). vertexA and vertexB indicate which vertices of the object define the geometry to be constrained. A value of -1 indicates that a vertex parameter is not applicable. It returns false if the constraint cannot be set.
