    GetIsSpatial Method
    In This Topic
    Gets if the named object type has spatial information associated with it. This method must be called on the MCT. Use QueuedTask.Run.
    Syntax
    public bool GetIsSpatial()
    Public Function GetIsSpatial() As Boolean
    Exceptions
    ExceptionDescription
    This method or property must be called within the lambda passed to QueuedTask.Run.
    Example
    Modify Entity and Relationship Type Schemas with SchemaBuilder
