Required PointData object from which the data is taken to set values in the corresponding object.
Optional Long value. If no value is supplied, the default value is FDATA_CENTROID.
Optional Long value. If no value is supplied, the default value is FDATA_MEAS.
Optional Long that denotes the coordinate system in which to report. If no value is supplied, the default value is FDATA_PART.
Optional String that denotes what alignment to use. You can pass the empty string to denote the current alignment.

If no value is supplied, the default value is an empty string which causes the current alignment to be used.

Optional parameter with the ENUM_PLANE_TYPE enumeration for the PARTMM3 and POLAR coordinate system to denote the workplane to be used.

Remarks

Not every data type can be used with every feature type. Some data types take a single value, some data types take multiple values. Some data types take one or more depending on the feature. For example, a cone can take two diameters in the first and second data fields of the point object while the circle object only takes one diameter.

Use the FDATA_THEO flag if you want theoretical data, FDATA_MEAS if you want measured data
