Topic: Is active drawing new?[Solved]

[shers]

Hi,

How can I check if the active drawing is new or empty?

Thanks

You can check the DBMOD and DWGTITLED system variables to see if the drawing has been named and/or needs saving.

DBMOD (System Variable)
Indicates the drawing modification status.
(Read-only)

Type:   Integer
Saved in:   Not-saved
Initial value:   0
The setting is stored as a bitcode using the sum of the following values:

1   Object database modified
4   Database variable modified
8   Window modified
16   View modified
32   Field modified

The DBMOD value is reset to 0 when you save the drawing.

DWGTITLED (System Variable)
Indicates whether the current drawing has been named.
(Read-only)

Type:   Integer
Saved in:   Not-saved
Initial value:   0

0   Drawing has not been named
1   Drawing has been named
