Layout

Name

Layout

Remark

The Layout class provides methods and properties common to all internal Origin layout layers. Origin layout pages contain a layout layer which contains other objects on the layout page.

An Origin C Layout object is a wrapper object that is a reference to an internal Origin layout object. Origin C wrapper objects do not actually exist in Origin and merely refer to the internal Origin object. Consequently, multiple Origin C wrapper objects can refer to the same internal Origin object.

The Layout class is derived from the Layer and OriginObject classes from which it inherits methods and properties.

void Layout_ex1()
{
    LayoutPage lp;
    lp.Create("layout.otp");
    
    if(!lp)
        return;
    Layout lo;
    // Need to explicitly cast layer to Layout
    lo = (Layout) Project.ActiveLayer();
    if( lo.IsValid() )
    {
        // List all graph objects present on the Layout page
        GraphObject grobj ;
        foreach( grobj in lo.GraphObjects )
            printf( "Found graph object: %s\n", grobj.GetName() );
    }
    else
        out_str( "Active Layer is not a Layout" );
}
