Assigning features to a model

Feature assignment to a model can be done using the methods of the IModel object.

Assigning features

To assign a feature, use the AssignFeature method of the IModel object. To assign a feature by specifying its name, use the AssignFeatureByName method.

public void AssignFeature(ICommandContext c, ICommandParams p) 
{ 
IModel model = c.App.Workspace.CurrentModel; 

//Assign a feature with the specified name to the model 
model.AssignFeatureByName("camera"); 

//Assign all features with the specified name to the model 
model.AssignFeaturesByName("camera, radar, airbag"); 

//Assign by feature 
IFeature feature = ... 
model.AssignFeature(feature); 
} 

Get assigned features

To get the features assigned to a model, use the GetAssignedFeatures method of the IModel object.

public void GetAssignedFeatures(ICommandContext c, ICommandParams p) 
{ 
IModel model = c.App.Workspace.CurrentModel; 
IFeatureCollection features = model.GetAssignedFeatures(); 

foreach ( IFeature feature in features ) 
{ 
c.App.Output.WriteLine("sample", $"Feature Name: {feature.Name}, Kind: {feature.VariationKind}"); 
} 
} 

Release feature assignments

To release all features assigned to a model, use the ReleaseAllAssignedFeatures method of the IModel object. If you want to release some feature assignments, you can release them by specifying the feature name with the ReleaseAssignedFeatureByName method.

public void ReleaseAssignedFeatures(ICommandContext c, ICommandParams p) 
{ 
IModel model = c.App.Workspace.CurrentModel; 

//Release all assigned features from the model 
model.ReleaseAllAssignedFeatures(); 

//Release the assigned feature with the specified name from the model 
model.ReleaseAssignedFeatureByName("Camera"); 
}
