    In case the specified macro variant doesn't exist, a BaseException is thrown. Position of created placement is influenced by part placement handle string setting ("USER.PanelLayoutGui.Settings.Gripper"). If "USER.PanelLayoutGui.Settings.Gripper" is set to "UpperLeft" value then created placement will be positioned exactly at point passed in pLocation parameter.
    Example
    new Settings().SetStringSetting("USER.PanelLayoutGui.Settings.Gripper", "UpperLeft");

//Note: The article must have width and height specified (the values must be greater than zero).
