What can remove a dictionary from a drawing?
« on: January 23, 2018, 01:17:48 PM »
Just had a weird bug show up in my app where a dictionary that was created on the NOD via .NET disappeared. Two other dictionaries created with the same methods remained, so I don't think it's a problem with the dictionary creation/saving code.

I'm trying to figure out how this could have happened, I tried the purge command, but that didn't do it.

I imagine WBLOCK could do it, but only one of the three dictionaries was removed. I would imagine WBLOCK would remove all the dictionaries, keeping only drawing entities.

The drawing may have been opened in both AutoCAD and Bricscad, but again, I've tested that a few times and it hasn't been a problem.

Any ideas?

UNDO?

Did it go missing after closing the drawing/application, or was this in the same session?

try {GreatPower;}
   catch (notResponsible)

   finally
