AutoCAD .NET :: Insert Block From External DWG File / Specify Insert Point By Click Mouse
Apr 2, 2013I write a program, this program needs to insert some standard illustrations. I made these standard illustrations into different blocks. And I store these blocks in a dwg file. Everytime I need to insert some illustrations, I just click the mouse on the current drawing, I want the illustration inserted. These means the following points:
(1) Import the blocks to the current drawing, if the blocks have already been imported, then do nothing.
(2) Specify the insert point by clicking the mouse, and I want the block's insert point to coincide with the mouse clicking point.

AutoCAD .NET :: Insert Block To New DWG File At Exact Location?
Jul 18, 2011It's the part of project: I need read some named Blocks from a sample DWG and copy (clone) them (one at a time) to a new drawing.
There are 2 possible way to do it:
1. Database.Insert - it does allow you pass in location point but it takes whole DWG file not blocks inside the whole DWG;
2. Database.WblockCloneObjects - it takes blocks as parameter but it doesn't pass in with location information you want them there.
AutoCAD .NET :: Insert Dynamic Block From File And Change Visibility States
Dec 19, 2011I am trying to insert a Dynamic Block and change it's Visibility State. I can insert the block, and the visibility state changes, however, if I manually try to change it after, it does not change, even though the value has changed. My code executes and returns no errors, so I am assuming that I have done something wrong, or missed something out.
public class MyCommands { [CommandMethod("MyGroup", "Bolts", "MyCommandLocal", CommandFlags.Modal)] public void MyCommand() // This method can have any name {
[Code].....
If I insert my block manually, I can change the states and it works fine, but the code seems to break the block.

AutoCad :: Insert Dynamic Block From File With Multiple Dynamic Blocks
Jul 16, 2010I have a drawing ("SURUBURI.dwg") with several dynamic blocks ("M12", "M16", "M18" ... an so on...). I want to insert in my current drawing, one of the blocks from SURUBURI.dwg, for instance the block named "M12".
For that i tried creating a new command "INSERT_M12" that has the following script :
^C^C-INSERT; "I:/Ionut Mihaila/Goodies/SURUBURI.dwg/M12"
Now obvious that doesn't work, but i think it shows clearly what i want to accomplish. So is there an other way to do this?
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Insert Point At List Block And Dynamic Block
Apr 18, 2013I am learning autolips and i found a problem that i can´t solved.

selec block : ")(setq ss (ssget '((0 . "INSERT")))) (setq ent (ssname ss 0)), (setq pt (cdr (assoc 10 (entget ent)))) (command "point" pt))
wich this code you select one block and insert one point at insert point´s block.
which this other code yo select all block and insert all point.... but in one block
(vl-load-com) (defun c:pmb11 ( / sele cod bloque nbloque lista pt ) (prompt "
block: ") (setq sele (ssget ( List'(0 . "INSERT"))) Cod 0 )cod (1+ cod) (repeat (sslength sele) (setq bloque (ssname sele cod)) (setq pt (cdr (assoc 10 ( entget bloque)))) (command "punto" pt) );repeat )
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Insert A Block / Explode And Rename Nested Block With Suffix
Nov 30, 2012I have a block that i want to insert several times and revised each one to be different to do this i would have to insert it and rename the blocks that come in and then reinsert i would like to insert and have a lisp explode the main block and rename the other 2 blocks with a suffix at the end depending on how many times its in the drawing... can this even be done? My original block name that will be first inserted is "BENT PULLEY NOTES" it needs to explode after i drop it in and then there are 2 blocks within that called "Bent Pulley" and "Bent Pulley DYN" that i was hoping to keep the names but add a number at the end depending on how many are in the drawing already...
here is a lisp that i have found... it would work if i didn't have nested blocks and only wanted the one block to be insert and not explode...
(defun c:Test (/ e i name Bname )
(setq e nil)
(command "_.-insert" "Drawing1.dwg" pause "" "" "")
(if (setq e (entlast))

AutoCad :: How To Delete Block From Insert Block List
Oct 20, 2007I am using Autocad 2007 I made several blocks with att. And I use this drawing and copy it to the samples/design center folder so that I can see the blocks that I created on the Design center window for use on different other drawings.
My problem is that if I make a cange on the ORIGINAL block drawing how can I update the inserted blocks on the other drawings? I try to delete the block from the local drawing insert block list (is this possible?) to paste the block again with the new changes, but somehow even when I grab the new modified block to inserted again when I do it, it takes the shape of the old version!

AutoCAD .NET :: Insert 3D Block Into UCS
Aug 24, 2013I defined a 3d block..It is defined along X axis...I want to insert it into a ucs by picking 2 points( insertion, and direction) and that Block Z axis to be parallel with UCS z axis
I insert the block first then I rotated it..I have got this
P1 is insertion poit
P2 is the point for direction
P1 world is p1.transformby(current ucs)
Dim Xax_block As Vector3d = Block1.BlockTransform.CoordinateSystem3d.Xaxis.TransformBy(Block1.BlockTransform)
Dim VectorP12 As Vector3d = P1_world.GetVectorTo(P2_world)
Dim RotAX As Vector3d = Xax_block.CrossProduct(VectorP12) ' here is calculating the perpendicular vector between x axis of the block and the vector from point1 and point2
Dim Rotation1 As Double = Xax_block.GetAngleTo(VectorP12)
Block1.TransformBy(Matrix3d.Rotation(Rotation1, RotAX, P1_world))
By picking 2 points is inserting the block along the line between 2 points...But is not having as normal the z axis of the ucs..

View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD 2013 :: Blocks Insert At Different Coordinates From Those Entered In Command Line
Jul 10, 2012I am testing using script files to automate inserting blocks for As-Built drawings. My script files run fine, but AutoCAD is placing the blocks at a location that is different than what the input on the command line shows. For instance, I am placing a block at (6,6), which is reflected in the command line, but the block is actually placed at (6,5.898). The 5.898 does not appear anywhere in my script file, and the command line even shows that (6,6) was entered for the insertion point.

Wblock Drawing to Temp Database
Now have my New BlockTableRecord Object
Copy BlockTableRecord to ActiveDwg.Database
Create New BlockReference
Add attributes
Set Scale Properties
Set Insertion Point
Set Rotation
Append BlockReference to Database
Commit Transaction
Am I missing any of the steps?
Is this how I would imidate the old VBA modelspace.insertblock(myPoint, "C:pathpathpathlock.dwg",1,1,1,0)
