Methods

Add(DetailView)

Add a new user view. These views are not visable via GetViews() until The transaction is committed. In some cases, adding a view may replace existing views instead of creating a new view. For example, adding a main view will replace the current main view. Adding a cross section view will create a new view.

Declaration
public void Add(DetailView view)
Parameters
Type Name Description
DetailView view
Remarks

Adding a view will add the same view to all members that share the same piecemark as defined by the piecemark before the transaction is committed. As such, developers should add views after committing any piecemark related changes.
