Topic: Skip objects inside a block while checking additions with ObjectAppended

[Viktor]

CAD Standards (DWS files) anyone...anyone...?

Also, if you must pursue this route, I seem to remember an Adesk sample that did this (in a palette even)...maybe MgdArxDbg...can't quite remember...I'm sure I've seen one though...

We utilize the dws file to its extents, but you can't program logic into a dws file. When we have to send 80% of our work to consultants all across USA, we want to make sure that all follow our standards as much as they can.

But I will have to look into this mgdarxdbg thing you're talking about.

Thanks,
Viktor.

BTW, the easiest way to see the order of appended objects, is to fire up ARXDBG and enable it's dbase reactors, then insert a block for instance..........

Since you brought up the ObjectArx SDK, can you explain how I would "fire up" something out of that package? I downloaded it a while back and noticed that most everything in there is c++, I don't have a full Visual Studio package to compile those projects, I know there's ways to compile C# or VB.net projects outside of Visual Studio, but how do I do a C++ project? And should I?

Thanks,
Viktor.

The SDK ObjectARX samples are basically ready for compile - but it requires VS2002 or VS2005 (no express versions) depending on your AutoCAD version.

Below is the version for 2007:

Thanks Luis!

Yea, they won't let a cad junkie like myself have a copy of VS, I had to pull all the guns out to get the express suites.

Thanks again.
