Public method GetRegionEnvelope Gets the envelope that a specified region spans.
Public method GetRegionIds Gets the region ids of this compound structure.

Public method GetRegionsAssociatedToLayer Gets the set of region ids associated to a particular layer.
Public method GetSegmentCoordinate Gets the coordinate of a segment.
Public method GetSegmentEndPoints Gets the end points of a segment.
Public method GetSegmentIds Gets the segment ids of this compound structure.
Public method GetSegmentOrientation Gets the orientation of a segment.
Public method GetSimpleCompoundStructure Takes a horizontal slice through a sample wall to which this CompoundStructure is applied and returns a simple compound structure which describes that slice, i.e. a series of parallel layers.
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object )
Public method GetWallSweepsInfo Obtains a list of the intrinsic wall sweeps or reveals in this CompoundStructure.
Public method GetWidth The width implied by this compound structure.
Public method GetWidth(Int32) Computes the width of the envelope (2d bounding box) of the specified region.
Public method IsCoreLayer Checks if the specified layer is a core layer.
Public method IsEqual Checks whether this CompoundStructure is the same as another CompoundStructure.
Public method IsLayerValid Verifies that the data in this layer is internally consistent.
Public method IsRectangularRegion Determines whether the specified region is rectangular.
Public method IsSimpleRegion Determines whether the region is a simple region in this CompoundStructure.
Public method IsStructuralDeck Determines whether a specified layer is a structural deck.
Public method IsValid
Public method IsValidLayerPriority Checks if the layer priority is valid to match the function.
Public method IsValidRegionId Determines whether the specified integer is actually the id of a region in this CompoundStructure.
Public method IsValidSampleHeight Is the specified height a valid sample height for this compound structure?
Public method IsValidSegmentId Determines whether the specified integer is actually the id of a segment in this CompoundStructure.
Public method IsVerticallyHomogeneous Indicates whether this CompoundStructure represents a single set of parallel layers.
Public method MergeRegionsAdjacentToSegment Merges the two regions which share the specified segment.
Public method ParticipatesInWrapping Identifies if a layer is included in wrapping at inserts and ends.
