How can I create a surface texture symbol (ACM 2011) on a dimension (see attached drawing) using VBA without interactively selecting the dimemsion?
I have a point on the dimesnion and the entity name / handle of the dimension which I want to pass to the VBA function.
I am using the code from Introducing the AutoCAD® Mechanical API, Wayne Brill – Autodesk (
http://aucache.autodesk.com/au2007/sessions/1133/file_3939.pdf)
While this code interactively selects the point and the line (dimension in my case), I don't want to use interaction. Instead I have lisp variable.
I have used the vlax.cls to convert the point to a variant and handle to an object. (I could use Users variables instead with more complex code). This works well but the code fails at the line:
oSurfSymbol.AttachGeometry dimHor, pt
This is because the method requires IMcadLine object I have IAcadLine2 object
Please help.
