AutoCAD .NET :: In Which Cases Handle Is Not Persistent
Nov 29, 2013
I have an application that saves the handle of some geometry on a DB.
The geometry is limked with database information, and each time the drawing is open the data is loaded to application via a Handle.
I used the Handle, because the is persistent, but one time when I open the drawing, the applications says the data doesn't match the drawing, I check it and it was the same drawing, when defining again the geometry I realize the handle had change.
I don't know why this happens, I only save and close the drawing. Is there some point the handles need to be recycled on the application?
Or what could happen that changed the handlers of the drawing.
It only happen one time, in one drawing, but I don't know if it can happen again.

I recently purchased a new tower and happily installed my CS3 upon it. Thus far I have been delighted with the smooth experience of the program. I was previously running it upon a laptop and it was always a bit slow to keep up. Unfortunately I have discovered that no matter what file I am in or what type of light I use, my lighting effects filter contains an artifact. I have thus far tried what fixes I could find listed here on the site/in the forums but nothing has worked.Upon the third re-instal attempt I now have two line artifacts appearing in my Filter>Render>Lighting Effects...
I can note that this problem did NOT occur previously on the lap top which was running the same operating system. here is my technical breakdown; Photoshop Version 10 (CS3)Windows Vista Home Premium (64 Bit Operating System) Service Pack 2AMD processor 2.80 GHzRAM 4.0 GB437 GB free disk spaceVideo Card : RADEON HD 4870 X2 If this was a filter that I didn't use very often I probably wouldn't care but Lighting Effects is a staple of mine and I miss it terribly!

I am on Win 7, 64-bit, 20 gb RAM. Using CS 6 (Cloud).
I have this strange shadow that looks like a pop-out menu once occupied that space, on my interface background.
It will not go away permanently. Everyday when I first start Illustrator, I have to go to Preferences==>User Interface and change the background color.
That makes it go away temporarily. But when I restart, it comes right back.

Today I am working on a book that has been laidout in InDesign. I am trying to convert it to a digital publication format, and as such, I am trying to strip running heads since they insert willy-nilly in text because the digital text doesn't follow the same page flows as the print version.
In this case, I have a master page A that is a left and right page, both of which have a running header, the left with the book name and the right with the chapter title. When I go to the master page and delete the header text boxes for BOTH pages, this removes the LEFT page's running heads throughout the whole book. However, for some reason the RIGHT page's running head stays where it is. This is a book that is about 600 pages in length. I really don't want to scroll through 300 pages to manually delete these headers. Oh, I should note that the pages in question do say "A", so the A master page would appear to be applying to them. That goes for both the left and right pages, but only the left ones are responding to an edit of the master page.
Here is a picture of the before and after situation. In "before", I'm showing you the file as it came to me. The verso and recto A masters both have text boxes with running head info, and the body of the text is in accordance. However, when I edit the A-Master pages to remove these text boxes, only the verso page responds in the body. I note that the text content of the recto boxes is different (each chapter has its own chapter title). However, the format follows the A page as you can note from the Pages panel on the right of each screenshot. So why is it that the recto is hanging around? I've had this problem in a couple of shorter texts where it was quicker just to manually nuke the boxes, but I feel carpal tunnel setting in just thinking about doing this for multi-volume sets and the like.

How can I make my spot color definitions choice persistent? I read a kb item that said how to swap out the new Pantone Plus color books for the old ones, to maintain color parity with older versions. One of the steps has me going to "Spot colors" on the swatches pallette and selecting "Use CMYK Values..." instead of "Use LAB Values...". I don't want to have to do this with every file. Is there a way to make this choice persistent?

I have a complex data structure I want to be able to add to a Lightroom plugin. I know Lightroom uses a SQLite database. Can I add tables to that database from either inside a Lightroom plugin or externally? I see no documentation of any API capabilities granting direct queries of the SQLite database and as of now it's looking like the only technique I have at my disposal is to create my own homebrewed database system using the file system. I would like that not to be the case.

Not sure if it's a setting I'm missing, a workflow gaffe, or a feature that is simply absent. I would like new/multiple versions of a file to be persistent across multiple collections. It is not inconceivable to have an image in more than one collection; something could be in a Landscape collection, Portfolio collection, Blog Postings, and so forth. Unfortunately, it seems that if I export a file to edit in Photoshop (or any external application) it will only stack with the image in the collection from which it was sent. It will not show in any other collections so they would not include the current version of a file unless manually added.

I have been doing so much research trying to figure this out. Either im missing something or its not possible.29571-saving-layers-seperate-files-one-persistent-layer
I ran across that post on this forum and that is exactly what i want to do (at end of post)Ive tried the LayerSaver jsx but it only allows selected layers and top layer and bottom background.
my bottom has to be transparent. I have an icon set that has a bottom group (that i can merge to layer) and a top group (that i can also merge to layer) and the middle contains my icons.

I am trying to delete records from a database file by using the erase event of the AutoCad Document Object, that is:
Private Sub AcadDocument_ObjectErased(ByVal ObjectID As Long)
My problem is that my database identifies objects by their handles in the drawing file. How do I convert the ObjectID into the object handle? I tried:
strHandle$ = Hex$(ObjectID)
but it didn't return the handle of the object that was being deleted

I need to connect to specific instances of AutoCAD and Plant3D. The Running Object Table (ROT) only holds one instance so GetObject wont work.
I've tried getting the correct instance using the hwnd with the AccessibleObjectFromWindow function. I'am thinking the easiest way is to autoload a plugin to communicate with, maybe through a service.

Recently I have been modeling a dock with cranes and a container yard. Everything is going fine until I decided change the boxes -solid primitive- that represent the containers for a more detailed container model, also wish to change the color of these individually.
I've tried to simply copy/paste several container models, but the file became huge and the AutoCad performance is deeply affected. So I try inserting blocks of these models with the same effect, even I tried to convert the container model to a brep before paste in my overall model, in order to keep the file manageable, but no much difference.
How can i get what I want? Lot of containers (3270 more or less) who being capable of change their color randomly and individually.

Today i had to use hatch a lot, the mission was to hatch extended and and walls that not with different hatch types.
the first thing that came up is to use wipeuot under the hatch, but its lots of work and time waste (wipeout objects never been plot-friendly).
what do you do when you have to hatch overlapping objects.

I'm trying to employ a technique that I've used with SolidWorks. I'm working on a project with several engineers doing design work on a large assembly. The way I've seen this handled in a SolidWorks shop is to create a master assembly with sketches on the principal planes that define envelopes for sub assemblies, interface dimensions, and so on. Each engineer can have the master assembly in their sub assembly, as a guide. Where I've used this before, it has worked with integrating the sub assemblies later on.
Here's the complication: There are several different "families" of the product that require different dimensions on the master sketches. What I had hoped to do in Inventor was use view representations or level of detail representation to control the visibility of these "families" of master sketches. When an engineer includes the master assembly in his sub assembly he could then easily turn on the "family" he wants to see. But it turns out that neither view representations nor level of detail representations influence the visibility of sketches. (Position representations don't, either.) Sketches are either visible or not visible, regardless of which representation you're in.
Is there some way I can control the visibility of sketches, in groups?

I need to use the Handle of the cloned object during a DeepClone override but AutoCAD shuts down when I try to use it.
This is the best I can think of but it still boots me out when I try.
Public Overrides Function DeepClone(ByVal dbObject As DBObject, ByVal ownerObject As DBObject, ByVal idMap As IdMapping, ByVal isPrimary As Boolean) As DBObject Try Return MyBase.DeepClone(dbObject, ownerObject, idMap, isPrimary) Catch Finally CompileCloneObjects(dbObject.Handle.ToString, MyBase.DeepClone(dbObject, ownerObject, idMap, isPrimary).Handle.ToString) End Try End Function

I was wondering if there was a way to get the object handle ID to display when rolling over an object or failing that, to get the handle ID to show up in the object quick properties?
At the moment I have to select each object and type LIST to get this information and it's very time consuming if I want to check the handle IDs for multiple objects.

How does the datalinks handle the links to the excel spreadsheet. I am drawing parcels from legal descriptions and would like to link each parcel to a spreadsheet with all the parcels data via a ID number. Then be able to click on that parcel and see the owner (the link). But my question is: do I have to give each link a new name to correspond with the parcel in order to see each parcel ownership?
And how many datalinks can a drawing handle.

If I have a list of handles for Autocad Entities, how would I go about selecting these entities on screen so that the user could add to this selection or remove objects from the selection? I could go with object ids as well if needed.
I have been searching and searching and coming up empty handed or at least coming up with information that doesn't seem to do what I want.

The attached assembly contains 3 parts modelled in slightly different ways. All parts fail when the dimension of 600 is changed to 200 in the Tool Part, probably because a different face comes into play...but it's the same body.

I wrote code for an application that stores links to lines and blocks in dictionaries using handles. The routines work well and I can manipulate the data marvelously, but if one of the lines or blocks get erased the whole danged opera falls apart. I knew this when I wrote the routines and have always been careful about using the ERASE command, as a matter of fact, I considered disabling it.
I am trying to make the package more robust. I have been experimenting with attaching a reactor (:vlr-erased) to the objects which fires when the object is erased. Unfortunately it fires before I can retrieve the handle of the object so that I can remove the references from the dictionaries. The only thing that I can retrieve once ERASE fires is the ObjectID. I can't seem to find a Visual Lisp routine to convert this value to a handle, does one exist? Is there an ObjectID collection that has any references in it?
