I develop AutoCAD using .NET, I use the Edit and Continue feature in Visual Studio 2008 while debugging and testing what I wrote. I recently got a new machine and now my Edit and Continue doesn't seem to work anymore.

View 5 Replies View RelatedIn AutoCAD 2006 and previous versions when we had to create a new STANDARD material with a pattern/texture map and attach it to a selection set of objects, first of all we had to load render.arx (arxload “render.arx”) and then we had to call the following function:
;;; matname = New Material Name
;;; ss = Selection Set of Objects
;;; Matfile = The name of the jpg file
(defun SetMaterial (matname ss matfile / r1)
(if (null (member matname (c:rmat "l")))
(if (findfile matfile)
[code]....
The above function checks if a material with name matname exists and if not then it creates a new STANDARD material with name matname, material color (-1.0 -1.0 -1.0), which means derive the color from an object’s ACI (diffuse color), color-weight factor 0 (the amount of diffuse color) and a pattern/texture which is described in the list (list matfile 1.0 1 nil nil nil 1 1). The following table describes the pattern/texture arguments:
matfile name of the bitmap file
1.0 amount of map color to use
1 tile(repeat the patterns)
nil u and v scale factors (AutoCAD used the default values)
nil U and V offsets (AutoCAD used the default values)
nil (reserved by Autodesk)
[code]....
It was not necessary to define CreateNewMaterial with all these arguments, but I do it for future purposes.
In the attached file you can see the definition of MaterialExists, CreateNewMaterial and some other functions:
MaterialExists: Checks if a material exists.
DefaultNewMaterial: Default values for new materials. I have used the AutoCAD defaults, but one can modify them accordingly.
CreateNewMaterial: Creates a new material. If one needs more information on the meaning of the arguments I think Ralph Grabowski’s “Tailoring AutoCAD Rendering” is a good start.
AttachMaterialToEntity:Attaches material to objects
MaterialByLayer: Modifies an object to have material by layer.
AttachMaterialToLayer: Attaches material to a layer.
As you can see I don’t use vlax functions, because I write the code for OEM programming purposes. You can change the functions accordingly.
Dev env: AutoCAD 2012, VS 2010, ObjectARX.Net 2012
A simple windows form command dll to test within the VS2012 + AutoCAD 2012
Bug: when debugging with VS2012, the first command runs fine and I can debug it with breakpoints etc etc. However, after the first debugging session, if I try "File"->"Open" or "New", file dialog will popup and then my AutoCAD 2012 crashs.
It won't happen if I compiled the dll, and load directly from AutoCAD independantly running instance.
I'm looking for the complete instruction set prepare Visual Basic Studio 2010 Express to program Inventor 2012 Professional.

I am in the process of replacing my worn out computer! I currently run LT2008 on a windows XP platform. My new computer can either be windows 7 or 8 (64bit) and I wanted to know if I can re-install my LT2008 to the new system? I am soon to retire so do not have the need to upgrade my LT2008 as it will be used only occasionally.

I am using AutoCAD's 2008 DWG to PDF. The quality is good but it does not match the preview. The preview shows the drawing centered. But when I print it and view the PDF, the drawing is off center and cut off. I tried to redefine the sheet size with no borders but it still does not center it.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI finally have my first and only .Net version of a former VBA function running and I want to make it available to other users, but security is getting in the way. Copying the project even to a different location on the same local hard drive results in a security violation, let alone copying it to a network directory. I am using Visual Studio Express 2008 and cannot find the ClickOnce nor any Publish function written up on MDSN - do those tools only apply to exe style projects?
I did read about a work around of adding an allow remote flag to the AutoCAD configuration file, but that appears to be a massive security hole as it could (I think?) allow *any* malicious dll file to run.
Is distributing / publishing a dll project impossible with Express?

I have a drawing I've created in Autocad LT 2008 (wall sections) that are viewed in the sheet on their side, I'm tied of drafting sideways. If I group the entire page and rotate, dimenssions and model viewports will not coorperate in the rotation. UCS will allow rotation for view ports, but the command "plan" will not be recognized in paper space. Taking a landscape LAYOUT view and flipping it to portrait that won't wreck notes, leader, dims & viewports?

How can I transfer .dwg files from my old computer (Vista OS) to a new computer (Windows 7) and not have them transfer as "read only"? I have copied the existing files from the old computer to a flash drive and then transfered them using the flash drive to the new computer. They open but as read only. I have tried transfering each folder individually and the files still open as "read only". I have checked the properties on the files and they are identical to those on the original computer and the flash drive. Yet when they transfer to the new computer they come in as read only. I have turned off the "read only" and asked it to override the read only file but as soon as I close and open the .dwg it is still read only. how to make these files active on my new computer?
