Yeah, I didn’t know I was arguing with the master until I the repository.

You were arguing with him? hehe ...I've done that once; it was "fun" (for him).

For those of us that are not masters, can you please explain in plain english what this does before I download it?

You can simply read the header comments of the DwgDataList.cs (https://github.com/ActivistInvestor/CustomDwgFiler/blob/main/DwgDataList.cs) file.

It’s exactly like lisp's entget, except instead of DXF data, you get the DWG data. It’s useful in rare occasions where some data is not exposed in a class, or you just want to poke around

Thanks, but I should probably caution others that this class was written very quickly and was barely-tested. I needed a custom DwgFiler to find ObjectId references (for use with the 'Find Referencing Objects' function in my home-grown DBView/MgdDbg-like tool).

If i can find the time, I would like to break-out the entire 'Find references' functionality from that tool and make it available as well, since it's been one of the most-helpful tools I've ever built. Saved my tail more times than I can recall.
