Converted to a PR, but I didn't get the number from our VAR. On hold for now.

Problem setting the value for a numeric property via API

Running SE 2024 MP11 and having trouble setting the value of a numeric property using the API. I have a test case prepared. The relevant part is below. Note the console output says Prop.Type is Int32, but Prop.Value is 0.29 (a Double).

CODE

Dim PropertySetName As String = "MechanicalModeling"
Dim PropName As String = "Poisson's Ratio"
Dim PropValue as Double = 3.1415

PropertySets = SEDoc.Properties
PropertySet = PropertySets.Item(PropertySetName)
Prop = PropertySet.Item(PropName)

Console.WriteLine(String.Format("PropertySetName '{0}'", PropertySetName))
Console.WriteLine(String.Format("PropName '{0}'", PropName))
Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Prop.Type '{0}'", Prop.Type.GetType.Name))
Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Prop.Value '{0}'", CStr(Prop.Value)))

Prop.Value = PropValue

If Prop.Value = PropValue Then ' <---------- Throws an Exception
Console.WriteLine("Success")
End If

CONSOLE OUTPUT

PropertySetName 'MechanicalModeling'
PropName 'Poisson's Ratio'
Prop.Type 'Int32'
Prop.Value '0.29'
