4.4.6.3 TransferAttributeValuesFromPolygonsToPointsOrCentroids

Prototype:

function TransferAttributeValuesFromPolygonsToPointsOrCentroids (const TargetPointOrPolygonLayerName: string; const TargetAttributesName: string; const SourcePolygonLayerName: string; const SourceAttributesName: string): integer;

Description:

This function transfers attribute values of the specified attributes delimited by the "|" sign from the specified source polygon layer to the specified target point/polygon layer. The specified target attributes are also delimited by the "|" sign. This function operates on the active plot. Note: In case of multipolygons, always the first centroid is considered.

Syntax:

variable := Project.TransferAttributeValuesFromPolygonsToPointsOrCentroids (TargetLayerName, TargetAttributeName, SourceLayerName, SourceAttributeName);
