# A3DEntityIsBaseWithGraphicsType

A3DBool `A3DEntityIsBaseWithGraphicsType`(const A3DEntity *pEntity)
  `A3DBool` A3DEntityIsBaseWithGraphicsType(const `A3DEntity`* pEntity)

  Indicates whether an entity base type corresponds to the `kA3DTypeRootBaseWithGraphics`type enumeration.

  This function returns a value of `TRUE`if an entity type is based on the abstract root type for a PRC entity that can represent graphic data. Such an abstract root type is identified by the `kA3DTypeRootBaseWithGraphics`type enumeration.

  > Because this function does not return `A3DStatus`the internal thread safety policy is to wait for the availability of the API.

  > 2.0 You may need to use this function to sort entities for particular processing.
