If you’ll decide to create all your Block-Handling code on-the-fly, you’ll most likely have a very error-prone process and lots of duplicate code. I can only suggest that you create a Wrapper for your Blocks, and service classes that provide all the needed functionality for you. One more thing, I personally find working with Blocks in the AutoCad API very inefficient and cumbersome. Copy this into the interactive tool or source code of the script to reference the package.

The distance is controlling the Length property. r 'nuget:, 1.1.0' r directive can be used in F Interactive, C scripting and. AutoCAD 2018: ObjectARX 2018 and VC.NET 2015 (14.0 - Update 3) AutoCAD 20: ObjectARX 2019 and VC.NET 2017 (15.0 - Update 2) By using the lowest version of each SDK family, for example, using ObjectARX 2013 to create and run your plugins on both AutoCAD 20, does not guarantee it will run. The angle is controlling the rotation of the Block. So basically, insert a block.ġ: protected override bool Update() 2: īasically, we’re calculating 2 things here: the distance and the angle from the mouse position to the Block’s position (which is his Insertion Point). Refer to this document to quickly become familiar with the icons. The first thing we need to do, is to set everything up. This document lists the icons in toolbars in AutoCAD 2009. Just go to the tab ‘Source’, click on ‘Browse’, expand the trunk and choose ‘BlockPropertyDrag’. Complete files of the code can be found on Google Code. To the code: Setting up the basics first, as these will happen exactly as in my last post, I will not include these in the code samples. I believe that being creative with this technique can lead to powerful, very user-friendly mechanisms. Note that this could be easily mimicked by just a regular rectangle, but you’ll get the point. In my case I will use a Jig that controls the rotation of the block, and the length-property. And then use a Jig that controls some properties of the Jig. Next step is to position the block with a Jig.

There are a few steps to do, before you can do this action.įirst, to insert a Block and Jig it, you need to insert the block into the drawing. I bet that there is more than one way to handle this kind of action, but I’ll describe how I’d do it. A few days ago, I noticed a post on the AutoDesk Forums, asking for a way to edit a block property, immediately after inserting the block.
