Have been working on a little something and would like to know what units the user is using in their document. Basically what is selected here:
The thing is, no matter what is there (and while all other menus and such use the units) Active Document.unit stubbornly returns inches. Is there a way to get the proper ones using VBA?
How do I get my text from my TextBox1 (add text)Â by pressing my CommandButton1 (okay) to my active page or document?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWithin an IDW file, you can go to the Styles Editor, then click on a standard. Â On the General tab, there's a drop down for the unit of length.
Provide the code so that I can change this setting from Inches to mm with an iLogic rule?
How can I stop changing active document? I was thinking I could use this, but I don't know how to cancel it in the event handler:
Â
AcadApp.DocumentManager.DocumentToBeActivated += new DocumentCollectionEventHandler(DocumentManager_DocumentToBeActivated);static void DocumentManager_DocumentToBeActivated(object sender, DocumentCollectionEventArgs e){ // Messagebox to ask if user are sure bool AreYouSureYouWantToChangeActiveFile = MessageBox.... if(!AreYouSureYouWantToChangeActiveFile) //cancel change active file somehow...???}
I would like to turn off all the existing layers in active document. I have found in developer's guide how to turn off one layer with specified layer name but can not apply it on all layers with any layername.
I tried to get all the Object ID's in layer table and then for each object turn layer off but seems that it does not work.
Â
<CommandMethod("FilterLayers")> _Public Sub FilterLayers()'' Get the current document and databaseDim acDoc As Document = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocumentDim acCurDb As Database = acDoc.Database'' Start a transactionUsing acTrans As Transaction = acCurDb.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()'' Open the Layer table for readDim LayerTable As LayerTable = acTrans.GetObject(acCurDb.LayerTableId, OpenMode.ForRead)Dim LayerTableRecord As LayerTableRecord = acTrans.GetObject(LayerTable.ObjectId, OpenMode.ForWrite)For Each ObjectId In LayerTableLayerTableRecord.IsOff = TrueNext'' Save the changes and dispose of the transactionacTrans.Commit()End UsingEnd Sub
Is there a script to convert a layer or layer group to a 32-bit image rather then the entire active document at present that is the only option in Ps 5.x.

I know how it's doing in LISP, but not in C#.
Is there event for change current (active) layer of document?
(it's not Database.ObjectModified - it's not raised).
I tried to do it with binding as:
public void Initialize()
{
var layerList = Application.UIBindings.Collections.Layers;
layerList.PropertyChanged += new PropertyChangedEventHandler(LayerList_PropertyChanged);
And -= in Terminate, but... Autocad 2012Â chashed _sometimes_!!!
Impossible to understand when it happened. So I reject this way. Is there other way to handle this event?
I have an external drawing processor and one of the functions is to read the layers in an AutoCAd drawing and if the name matches freeze/thaw it. With modifications over the years I have had it working with 2002 through 2008. Now I'm getting errors. When I tru to use the Interop, I get "Call Rejected by Callee" errors, when I use the

I'm trying to change the active document window size with vb.net. This seems like it should be straightforward, but I'm having some trouble. Below is some code that I tried to use which I found on the AutoCAD DevBlog.. I thought I understood how this works, but I can't seem to import the correct references to make it work.
Dim doc As Document = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument()
Dim docWindow As Window = doc.Window
Dim size As Size = docWindow.Size
docWindow.WindowState = Window.State.Normal
docWindow.Size = New Size(500, 500)
I would like to make the active layer name the same as the document name. I know very little about scripting. I found this script:
Â
var idoc = app.activeDocument;var ilayer = idoc.activeLayer;var filename = idoc.name;ilayer.name = filename;
Â
It does almost what I need it to do. except that it also copies the ".ai" in to the layer name. Is there some way to modify this script to have it exclude or delete the file extension?
Apparently, in the CS3 is impossible to do any scripting and using any actions. Can it be done using plugins sdk, without creating a new document? I tried using the functions SetPageSetup and SetCropBox but no effect

Since Edge only has rectangles and ellipses built in as available shapes, how to I/we work with polygon shapes and active mouseover areas INSIDE of these shapes and non-active mouseover areas OUTSIDE of the shapes?
Â
Problem/symptom: when I import a polygon, be it any file format from from Photoshop or SVG from Illustrator, a rectangular border/background (transparent) gets applied, leading to this rectangle defining the mouseover area of the shape - and not the shape itself (be it a star or whatever).
Â
WHAT I WANT: the very shape defines the mouseover area. How do I achieve this?? See examle below:

WHAT I DON'T WANT: how is is now:

View 10 Replies View RelatedI don't know if this has been reported but I found out today when working on a web design (hence working in the new unit - pixels) that you can't actually use the Dimension tools for measuring pixels. That's a pity because often you need to work with exact pixel dimensions when making websites and here the Dimension tools could come in very handy. It seems counting pixels by hand is a bit old-fashioned. Of course you can use calculations, but still...

View 6 Replies View RelatedI just noticed that X6 crashes (freezes completely) when importing a "corrupt" pdf document. When I import the exact same file in X5, I receive the prompt "The file is corrupted." OK and I am back to where I started. X6 just hangs..... and never returns, you have to kill X6 and reload losing some of if not all the work you did prior to a save. Not good.
