  • object.SurfaceRectangleExportSpectrum(double dXPos, double dYPos, double dWidth, double dHeight, BSTR bstrFileName) as Boolean
  • object: Virtual Photometric Lab
  • dXPos: horizontal coordinate of the center of the rectangle (Theta start for conoscopic map)
  • dYPos: vertical coordinate of the center of the rectangle (Theta end for conoscopic map)
  • dWidth: horizontal size of the rectangle (Phi start for conoscopic map)
  • dHeight: vertical size of the rectangle (Phi end for conoscopic map)
  • bstrFileName: path and filename of the spectrum (.spectrum, .spe) file.

VB script example

' Creates XMPViewer COM server
set XmpViewer = CreateObject("XmpViewer.application")
' Opens XMP file
XMPViewer.OpenFile("C:\Example.xmp")
' Exports spectrum into SPE file
XMPViewer.SurfaceRectangleExportSpectrum(0, 0, 0.5, 0.5, "C:\Example.spe")

IronPython example

from System import Type, Activator
#Creates XMPViewer COM server
type = Type.GetTypeFromProgID("XmpViewer.Application")
XmpViewer = Activator.CreateInstance(type)
# Opens XMP file
XmpViewer.OpenFile("C:\\Example.xmp")
# Exports spectrum
XMPViewer.SurfaceRectangleExportSpectrum ( 0, 0, 0.5, 0.5, "C:\\Example.spe")
