Creator (ICreator65)

The interface is responsible for creating objects in a project. It is composed of many methods that create different objects. When creating an object (using one of the CreateXXX methods) the client gets an interface to the newly created object. The client can then use this returned interface to further control the object (i.e. change its position or its color).

Each object created through the ICreator65 interface has an ID that uniquely identifies it in the TerraExplorer Pro world (the ITerraExplorerObject65 . ID property). This ID can be used by the client to get an interface to that object using the GetObject method of the ICreator65 interface. The client can get a hold of that ID by either of the following methods:

§ Create the object and store its ID for later use before releasing the object.

§ Find the item if you know its name using IProjectTree65.FindItem.
