How to create and populate a new custom dictionary in with vb.net. None of the examples I could find (that I think would work) were written in vb and weren't very well documented. So I guess what I would like is a push in the right direction.
View 9 RepliesHow I can tie a key from a custom dictionary to display in a field?
I know that I can dump the custom dictionary into global and the fields can track those values, but instead of strangling my available memory I'd rather track the dictionary key directly. How can I utilize the Entity name or the actual dictionary name & key?
I have been using the new populate feature. I would like to use custom skins. I have several biped figures that are what I would like to use for textures. I am not sure how the mapping works and you can not just copy the textures over.
What do I have to do to take my texture from my biped skinned character and apply it to the populate character?
Any way to create a parcel from an object (closed polyline) and populate the parcel with Object Data from the polyline?
I have imported a .shp file into a drawing and the result is many closed polylines with properties similar to the attached image. I would like to bring this data into a parcel object for labeling purposes.
say you make some parcels in your project with custom data fields like: id_no, permit_no, acres_served etc. you attach an agency provided shape file via an fdo connection that has many fields of information like above.
when you right click on your parcel and do parcel properties you get a tab that lets you input the custom parcel data.
lets say you print an fdo map label showing, say, the id_no, provided in the shape file. Then in your custom parcel properties for id_no you type that in.
is there a way to make an expression to put in the other custom parcel properties that will read, say, the permit_no(id_no) from the fdo like and put that information in the custom parcel property field?
I'm trying to figure out how to create an iLogic rule that would create a Custom iProperties and put in what version of Inventor the file was last updated with.

Show me a very simple code-example, how to attach an extension dictionary to an AutoCAD Object and add a XRecord?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a dictionary in the NOD with several xrecords. I want to change an entry value in one but the others in the dictionary also get changed. How would they be connected?
This is some simplified code that looks at two xrecords, changes one, then reports the new values. Weird thing is that both xrecords get changed.
For i = 1 To 2 XRecId = MyAppDict.GetAt(i) XRec = trans.GetObject(XRecId, OpenMode.ForRead) ed.WriteMessage(vbLf + "XRecord: " & i & " First Entry: " & XRec.Data(0).value) Next XRecId = MyAppDict.GetAt(2) XRec = trans.GetObject(XRecId, OpenMode.ForWrite) Dim data As ResultBuffer = New ResultBuffer(New TypedValue(DxfCode.Int16, 2), New TypedValue(DxfCode.Text, XRec.Data(1).value)) XRec.Data = data For i = 1 To 2 XRecId = MyAppDict.GetAt(i) XRec = trans.GetObject(XRecId, OpenMode.ForRead) ed.WriteMessage(vbLf + "XRecord: " & i & " First Entry: " & XRec.Data(0).value) Next
After installing AutoCAD on 3 new Windows 7 workstations, one of them can't find the main dictionary. I can find dictionaries (*.dct) by using the Windows Search function, but when I try to specify a path with the Options command, I'm told that there are "None available". What do I need to do to get a dictionary path loaded?

The file was originally created with Autocad 2010 in 2011. i would post the file but it is a customer print and i cannot disclose it here. we are now running up-to-date autocad 2013. this is not a problem with other files i have had to work with (older and newer). just seemds to be a localized event and am wondering if it is that something is corrupt.
when running spell check the tab for adding a word to the dictionary is not available.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to research how to create a custom surface. I found this article [URL]...... about how to to create a surface from a jpeg.
