Element Description

m_szFileName

[MKI_FILENAMEW] Name of the file to be opened or to be imported from respectively.

m_szReferenceDatabase

[MKI_DATABASENAME] Name of database used for import.

m_fUseInternalOrigin

[bool] Use the internal coordinate origin (instead of the current drawing's origin).

m_fShowColumnsDialog

[bool] Show a dialog after the import, allowing to assign auto-columns or to edit the database's settings.

m_fApplyAutoColumnPage

[bool] Assign page number from the corresponding auto-column to all imported objects.

m_fApplyAutoColumnLayer

[bool] Assign layer from the corresponding auto-column to all imported objects.

m_fApplyAutoColumnPen

[bool] Assign pen from the corresponding auto-column to all imported objects.

m_fApplyAutoColumnLineType

[bool] Assign line type from the corresponding auto-column to all imported objects.

m_fApplyAutoColumnLineWidth

[bool] Assign line width from the corresponding auto-column to all imported objects.

m_fApplyAutoColumnLineColor

[bool] Assign line color from the corresponding auto-column to all imported objects.

m_fApplyAutoColumnFillColor

[bool] Assign fill color from the corresponding auto-column to all imported objects.

m_fApplyAutoColumnRotation

[bool] Assign rotation from the corresponding auto-column to all imported instances and texts.

m_fApplyAutoColumnHeightScaling

[bool] Assign scaling / text height from the corresponding auto-column will be assigned to all imported instances and texts.

m_nUnitOfShapeFile

[__int32] Unit used by the SHP file.

UNIT_NONE

No unit.

UNIT_MM

Millimeters.

UNIT_CM

Centimeters.

UNIT_M

Meters.

UNIT_KM

Kilometers.

UNIT_INCH

Inches.

UNIT_FOOT

Feet.

UNIT_YARD

Yards.

UNIT_MILE

Miles.

m_dGlobalScaling

[double] Factor used to scale all objects after import.

m_szGlobalScaling

[MKI_STR256W] String which is evaluated to retrieve m_dGlobalScaling after the user exits the options dialog with "OK" (ignore this string and always use m_dGlobalScaling).

m_cMarkingXProperty

[MKI_XPROPERTY] Properties which are assigned to imported markings.

m_cInstanceXProperty

[MKI_XPROPERTY] Properties which are assigned to imported block instances.

m_cFrameProperty

[MKI_XPROPERTY] Properties which are assigned to imported frames of text references.

m_cCurveXProperty

[MKI_XPROPERTY] Properties which are assigned to imported curves.

m_cSurfaceXProperty

[MKI_XPROPERTY] Properties which are assigned to imported surfaces.

m_cPointTextInfo

[MKI_TEXTSTANDARD] Text properties which are assigned to imported standard and reference texts.

m_cPointReferenceTextInfo

[MKI_TEXTREFERENCE] Text reference properties which are assigned to imported text references.

m_nPointConversionMode

[__int32] Determines how a point from shapefile is inserted.

POINT_MARKING

Marking.

POINT_STANDARD_TEXT

Standard text.

POINT_REFERENCE_TEXT

Reference text.

POINT_VARIABLE_BLOCK

Block with a variable name (the block name is taken from the corresponding column "Label" and the library name is specified in m_szPointLibraryName).

POINT_FIXED_BLOCK

Block with a fixed (invariant) name (the block name is specified in m_szPointFixedBlockName and the library name is specified in m_szPointLibraryName).

m_szPointLibraryName

[MKI_LIBRARYNAME] Library name used when inserting points from shapefile as blocks (POINT_VARIABLE_BLOCK or POINT_FIXED_BLOCK).

m_szPointFixedBlockName

[MKI_BLOCKNAME] Block name used when inserting points from shapefile as blocks with a fixed name (POINT_FIXED_BLOCK).
