Description

Method to set the sensor's pointing type, using the AgESnPointing enumeration.

Note: you cannot specify the eSnPtExternal enumeration using this method. To set sensor pointing using an external file, you must use the SetPointingExternalFile method.

Syntax

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Sub SetPointingType( _
   ByVal PointingType As AgESnPointing _
) 
[C#]
public void SetPointingType(
   AgESnPointing PointingType
);
[Managed C++]
public: void SetPointingType(
   AgESnPointing PointingType
);
[Java]
public  setPointingType(
   AgESnPointing PointingType
);
[Unmanaged C++]
public: HRESULT SetPointingType(
   AgESnPointing PointingType
);

Parameters

PointingType
MemberValueDescription
eSnPt3DModel03D model: point a sensor along one of the available elements of the selected 3D Model.
eSnPtExternal1External: import a custom sensor pointing file.
eSnPtFixed2Fixed: model sensors that are fixed in the parent object's body coordinate frame, so that they always point in the same direction relative to the parent.
eSnPtFixedAxes3Fixed in axes: point a sensor with reference to a set of axes, using the selected orientation system.
eSnPtSpinning4Spinning: model radars, push broom sensors and other instruments that spin, scan or sweep over time.
eSnPtTargeted5Targeted: model sensors that track other objects.
eSnPtGrazingAlt6Grazing altitude: model a sensor so that the boresight vector will graze the central body at a specified altitude.
eSnPtAlongVector7Along Vector: model a sensor so that sensor pointing alignment is controlled by using a pair of vectors defined using the Vector Geometry tool.
