AutoCAD .NET :: Windows Form Based Stand Alone Application
Feb 9, 2012
i developed a windows form based stand alone application in Vb.net 2010 that calculates all the geometry data needed for a Spur Gear ,my final goal is to send all Calculated data needed in Autocad 2012 and draw automatticly the Spur Gear.
At first i started to experiment my self with a simple only task (created a new project only for this) to draw 4 circles with the same center (radius1,2,3,4) in autocad with a simple click of the command button.
The code i used is the following (for 1circle) but it returned a error like this>> SendACommandToAutoCAD()-->>Could not load file or assembly 'Acmgd, Version=18.2.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
[Code]....

I've started working on a project but I'm a little out of practice. I need to create a standalone application, with a window to view the active model. Essentially, it'll be a viewer tool with some other minor functionality for interrogation.
Alternatively, Is there a way for me to add a viewer window to my form? Like an InventorViewWindow Control or something?I've spent the last day or so searching, but nothing really useful has surfaced.

I currently have a Windows VB.net app that uses COM to open/save/close and manipulate drawings in AutoCAD..Here's how I open a drawing
AutoCAD_CurrentDwg = AutoCAD_Instance.Documents.Open(strAutoCADFilePath)
I work with various blocks and their attributes like so
Dim AutoCAD_Block_Attributes As Object = AutoCAD_Block_Reference.GetAttributesFor Each Me.AutoCAD_Block_Attribute In AutoCAD_Block_AttributesDim strAutoCAD_Block_Attribute_TagString As String = AutoCAD_Block_Attribute.TagStringAutoCAD_Block_Attribute.TextString = strSomeDB_Value
As I mentioned, this runs external to AutoCAD but I was wondering if it would be beneficial to re-write the app to run within AutoCAD... also, I believe that COM is "obsolete"? I think that my app could be revised to run inside AutoCAD via NETLOAD, using ObjectARX? One concern I have is that my app right now works with many versions of AutoCAD, not need to re-issue because my DIM statements are generic...
Private AutoCAD_Instance As Object Private AutoCAD_CurrentDwg As ObjectPrivate AutoCAD_Document As Object

I've been working on this code for a bit now and I've got a Windows Form with a numeric up down box which is designed to determine how many Layouts (PaperSpace) that a user would like generated.
I've got the form to pass the value as to the function as an argument but an not sure how to get the function to automatically generate "x" amount of Layouts based on the value of "int x". Right now i've just got a few "if" statements controlling the system, but i'm looking for a more elegant solution than a sea of "if" statements.
namespace CHPaperSpace
{
public class PaperSpace
{
[Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime.CommandMethod("CHPAPERSPACE")]
// This will be the function associated with my command
public void CHPAPERSPACECOMMAND(int x)
[code]........

I developed a program in VBA that used a form to allow users to create new dwg files based on selected criteria the vba program would then create and open the new dwg file and in the case of sheet files, it would populate title block attributes as well.
In vba, the forms focus was carried to the new file so the application would fill in the attributes, etc. as described above,
However in vb.net, I have not been able to get the form to recognize the new file. The program creates and opens the file, however the forms focus is still on the initial file so any actions to be applied to the new file are not carried out.

I have already developed my VB.NET Windows Form app (.NET 4.0 in VS2012) which does some Windows operation on roughly hundreds of AutoCAD drawing files(e.g. purely copy/move/rename type of actions).
Now I need to tell my app to communicate with AutoCAD 2013 and collect some attributes from a specific existing block in all of these drawings and then replace the collected values with some other values passed to AutoCAD by my Form application (see diagram below)
I had a look to couple of AutoCAD .NET blogs and realized how to make DLL files and leverage NETLOAD tool in AutoCAD afterwards but I am afraid DLL files and NETLOAD are not what I am looking after .
I would like to clearly know what is the best pathway to achieve my goal described above.

I have created a basic add-on that shows a modal windows form. The only issue I am running into is that I am completely unable to capture any key events in the form. I just want to make the escape key close my form, but I'm having no luck. Here is my basic setup:
<CommandMethod("myCommand")> _Public Sub myCommand() Dim myForm As Form1 = New Form1Autodesk. AutoCAD. Application Services. Application.ShowModalDialog(myForm)End Sub
Then in the form code, I have this, for testing purposes:
Private Sub Form1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyPress MsgBox("keypress") End Sub
I've also tried KeyUp and KeyDown. Key presses are working inside the form (I can use the keyboard to select an item in a combobox, for example), but I never hit the event handlers.

I got a problem to open a dxf file. If I use command method then I can easily do that. But I want to open that file by clicking a button from my windows form. I did the coding for that specified button like below:
Private Sub Button6_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button6.Click
Dim strFileName AsString
LoadDXF.InitialDirectory = "C:"
LoadDXF.Title = "Open DXF File"
[Code] ......
After invoke that button I got a error like below:
How can I open the drawing without commandFlags.session? I want to use the button of my form to open that dxf file.

I am struggling to populate a list view on my windows form. I have tried various methods but its not working. I can get the values into the listview but where i need 2 columns with many rows, i am just get 5 columns.
my list view needs to populate 2 columns. the first column is visible and shows a part name. the second column is hidden and holds a different value. I recursively loop through records and i need to add a row per record. This is captured with j. How can i add the correct amount of rows per j and the columns to hold the correct data?

I am trying to create a windows form within iLogic. Everything works except the lines defining the location on the controls. I keep getting the following error: 'New' cannot be used on an interface. The error refers to lines in the code that try to set the control location on the form. (i.e. "button1.Location = New Point(10,10)") Ihave pasted the code below and have it attached as well. I am in Inventor 2013.
AddReference ("C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETassemblyGAC_MSILSystem.Drawingv4.0_4.0.0.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3aSystem.Drawing.dll")Dim oOccurrence As ComponentOccurrenceTry oOccurrence = ThisDoc.Document.SelectSet.Item(1)Catch MessageBox.Show("Please select a component before running this rule.", "iLogic")

I was advised to download photoshop via adobe application manager as I have an XP OS. I even downloaded the application manager but now it fails to install saying "remote server not properly placed.Try after a few minutes" Whenever I retry I get the same message. Even I am getting the same message in case of installing adobe flash player. The installer always says installation not complete.

One of the features I was really looking forward to in CS6 was creating fillable forms with ONE application. I created a form following the step by step instructions in classroom in a book for CS6. When I opened the exported form in Reader X, I get a "This operation is not permitted" error. I opened the completed "end" document in the lesson to make sure I didn't commit an error, and I got the same message when exporting. I have looked for places in menus to modify security restrictions and I can't find any. I installed the updates and that didn't solve the issue.
I saw one solution posted which is to open the document in Acrobat, then do a "save as" option. Is there anything we can do that doesn't involve buying additional software? If this is not the case, then Adobe seriously needs to change its training and advertising about this functionality.

Calculation of resistance, making a simulation for an aquarium stand. Stand must support about 900 kg., Is made of 18 mm chipboard, combined with screwing.
All vertical walls are triple, its made of 3 pieces of chipboard, and the above is twofold. Policies are also set to increase rigidity all the screwing structure. The dimensions are 2000 (L) x 700 (w) x 774 (h).

I am working on a form (global) and have added a picture with a parameter and a picture folder underneath. So that the picture displayed on my form will change depending on the parameter value.Here comes the trick. Only text parameters can be used!On the form editor only 'Text parameter' can be selected to drive the picture selection. I actually need an integer, so that i can use my User/Excel parameters from Inventor.
I can work this around with an iLogic rule to equal the value of my string Picture Parameter with the relevant integer Inventor parameter, but the rules need to be run before the pic and the form updates (by pressing the 'Apply' button at the bottom of the form and then the assy updates too. So this takes a couple of minutes)... whereas if it was an option on the form editor then the update would be instant without waiting for everything to update...
Is there a particular reason why the Picture Parameter only can be a text parameter?

We created a wellhead stand (top and bottom plates has od of 18" and the body has od of 16.75" thk of 0.5") and ran the stress analysis.
Because we have a cylinder attach vertically to the wellhead stand, so we added the gravity and force (40,000 lb) on the top plate.
Our question is about the wind load. We know there has a software call robot structural analysis but that is not an option yet. And we looked up other pages and knew that we can convert the wind load to pressure. Basically the wind load is on the one side of the hydraulic cylinder (around 13feet tall and od of 6") and rod (around 12 feet tall and od of 4"). But where do we add it to the wellhead stand? on the top plate (flat face) ? or the body (cylinder)?
We attached a sample part. the orange parts = hydraulic cylinder. the green part = top plate. the magenta part = body.

I have PSE9 and a macbook pro 10.9. I lost the original DVD that came with my purchase of PSE. Some files must have gotten corrupted because I can't open the program without reintalling. It says, "Some of the application components are missing from the application directory. Please reinstall the application." I have the serial number and all and I registered the product. Is there somewhere I can download a new copy to install?
