SetBorderStyle()

Summary

Sets the line style used to draw the border of area features.

 

Syntax

SetBorderStyle(string lyr_set_name, linestyle border_style)

 

Argument	Contents
lyr_set_name	Name of the layer or selection set
border_style	The line style used to draw borders

 

Notes

• When used on a selection set, a null value for border_style indicates that borders of selected features are drawn with the default border style for the layer.

• If lyr_set_name is null, SetBorderStyle() operates on the current layer.

• SetBorderStyle() normally operates on the current map. You can force it to operate on a different map by including the map name in lyr_set_name. For instance, "Map1|LayerA|" affects the display of LayerA in Map1.

Example

solid = LineStyle({{{1, -1, 0}}})

dashed = LineStyle({{{1, -1, 0, 1, 2}}})

SetBorderStyle("U.S. States|", solid)

SetBorderStyle("U.S. States|Selection", dashed)

 

Error Codes

Error Type	Meaning
NotFound	The layer or selection set does not exist
