Example code for the id PLANESURFACE_TYPE in SBplane

Note that this is not the actual code from the SBplane file.

This code is just an example to show you how to add a similar control to your own description.

Resource File Code (SBplane.res)


LONG  PLANESURFACE_TYPE
{
                        
    CYCLE 
    {         PLANESURFACE_BOUNDED; 
        PLANESURFACE_UNBOUNDED; 
    }
}
            

Header File Code (SBplane.h)

#ifndef SBPLANE_H__
#define SBPLANE_H__
enum
{
  PLANESURFACE_TYPE = 1000,  //First ID should start at 1000
    PLANESURFACE_BOUNDED = 1,
    PLANESURFACE_UNBOUNDED = 2,
};
#endif	// SBPLANE_H__

String File Code (SBplane.str)
