ReshapeLink()

Summary

Changes the coordinates of a line feature in a standard geographic file.

Syntax

ReshapeLink(integer ID, array line_coordinates, array options)

Argument	Contents
ID	The ID of the line to be modified
line_coordinates	An array with the geographic coordinates of the current endpoints as the starting and ending coordinates, plus the geographic coordinates (if any) of the new shape points of the line feature

Option	Type	Contents
Reason	String	If provided, a record will be added to the database's log file, with this used as the Reason column. If it's not provided, no entry will be added, even if the other options are present.
Comment	String	Text for the comment field of the log file.
User	String	User name for the log file.

Notes

The starting and ending coordinates in the line_coordinates array must be the current endpoints of the line.
There can be zero or more shape points between the endpoints.
To change the coordinate of an endpoint, use the MoveNode() function.
The log file name will have the same name as the database and a .txt extension.
