enum SUResult SUSceneActivate ( SUSceneRef scene )

Since: SketchUp 2017, API 5.0

Parameters

[in] scene The scene object.

Returns

SU_ERROR_NONE on success
SU_ERROR_INVALID_INPUT if scene is not a valid object

enum SUResult SUSceneAddLayer	(	SUSceneRef	scene,
		SULayerRef	layer
	)

   Adding a layer to a scene will flag the layer to be the opposite of its
   default scene visibility. See \ref SULayerVisibilityDefaultType. This
   function does not take ownership of the specified layer.

Note: Prior to SketchUp 2020.0, API 8.0 this function did not return SU_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT.

Since: SketchUp 2016, API 4.0

Parameters

[in]	scene	The scene object.
[in]	layer	The new layer to be added to the scene.

Returns

SU_ERROR_NONE on success
SU_ERROR_INVALID_INPUT if scene or layer is not a valid object
SU_ERROR_NO_DATA if the scene is not owned by a valid model

SU_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT if the layer already exists in the scene

enum SUResult SUSceneAddLayerFolder	(	SUSceneRef	scene,

   flagged as HIDDEN for the specified scene. Any layers or layer folders
   within that layer folder will also be hidden, and therefore don't need to
   be added to the scene. This function does not take ownership of the
   specified layer folder.

Since: SketchUp 2021.0, API 9.0
