In This Topic
    HasNormals Property (MultipatchBuilderEx)
    In This Topic
    Gets or sets a value indicating if the MultipatchBuilderEx recognizes normals.
    Syntax
    Public Property HasNormals As Boolean
    public bool HasNormals {get; set;}
    Example
    Construct Multipatch from another Multipatch
    {
      TextureResource brickTextureResource = null;
      BasicMaterial brickMaterialTexture = new BasicMaterial();
      var coords = new List<Coordinate3D>();
    
      // create the multipatchBuilderEx object
      var builder = new ArcGIS.Core.Geometry.MultipatchBuilderEx(multipatch);
    
      // check some properties
      bool hasM = builder.HasM;
      bool hasZ = builder.HasZ;
      bool hasID = builder.HasID;
      bool isEmpty = builder.IsEmpty;
      bool hasNormals = builder.HasNormals;
    
      var patches = builder.Patches;
      int patchCount = patches.Count;
    
      // if there's some patches
      if (patchCount > 0)
      {
        int pointCount = builder.GetPatchPointCount(0);
    
        // replace the first point in the first patch
        if (pointCount > 0)
        {
          // get the first point
          var pt = builder.GetPoint(0, 0);
          builder.SetPoint(0, 0, mapPoint);
        }
    
        // check which patches currently contain the texture
        var texture = builder.QueryPatchIndicesWithTexture(brickTextureResource);
    
        // assign a texture material
        patches[0].Material = brickMaterialTexture;
      }
    
      // update the builder for M awareness
      builder.HasM = true;
      // synchronize the patch attributes to match the builder attributes
      //   in this instance because we just set HasM to true on the builder, each patch will now get a default M value for it's set of coordinates
      builder.SynchronizeAttributeAwareness();
    
      // call ToGeometry to get the multipatch
      multipatch = builder.ToGeometry() as Multipatch;
    
      // multipatch.HasM will be true
    }
