# IPCB_Primitive interface

The base interface of the PCB design objects; tracks, arcs, pads, vias, fills, text, components, polygons, dimensions and the other PCB object interfaces inherit its members.

```csharp
public interface IPCB_Primitive
```

**Namespace:** PCB · **Assembly:** Altium.SDK.Interfaces

**Derived:** [IPCB_Accordion](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Accordion.md), [IPCB_Arc](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Arc.md), [IPCB_Board](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Board.md), [IPCB_Connection](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Connection.md), [IPCB_DifferentialPair](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_DifferentialPair.md), [IPCB_DrillTable](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_DrillTable.md), [IPCB_Embedded](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Embedded.md), [IPCB_FromTo](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_FromTo.md), [IPCB_Group](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Group.md), [IPCB_ObjectClass](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_ObjectClass.md), [IPCB_ObjectClassBase](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_ObjectClassBase.md), [IPCB_Pad](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Pad.md), [IPCB_RectangularPrimitive](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_RectangularPrimitive.md), [IPCB_Region](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Region.md), [IPCB_Rule](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Rule.md), [IPCB_Track](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Track.md), [IPCB_Via](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Via.md), [IPCB_Violation](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_Violation.md)

## Remarks

Coordinates and sizes are in internal units (10,000 per mil): 10,000 per mil (`EDP.EDPConstant.InternalUnits`). Convert with [`EDP.Utils.MilsToCoord`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/edp/Utils.md#milstocoord) and [`EDP.Utils.MMsToCoord`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/edp/Utils.md#mmstocoord), and back with [`EDP.Utils.CoordToMils`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/edp/Utils.md#coordtomils) and [`EDP.Utils.CoordToMMs`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/edp/Utils.md#coordtomms).

To change an object, call [`BeginModify`](#beginmodify) before and [`EndModify`](#endmodify) after the change, between [`IPCB_ServerInterface.PreProcess`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_ServerInterface.md#preprocess) and [`IPCB_ServerInterface.PostProcess`](https://altiumdeveloper.github.io/ad-sdk-docs/reference/pcb/IPCB_ServerInterface.md#postprocess).

Once the object has been destroyed, every call through this interface fails with the error "Object accessed after being destroyed".

A primitive has a bounding rectangle which encapsulates the region of the primitive. There are two other bounding rectangles which are for selection and for painting (refreshing and updating).
