Title: Dynamic block properties
Post by: latour_g on August 30, 2017, 04:24:27 PM

Hi,
I would like to know if it's possible to modify the dimension value in a dynamic block ? I get error "eInvalidIndut" (I make sure to try with a valid measure). 
Thank you

Code - C#: [Select]

1.                 if (blkTab.IsDynamicBlock)
2.                 {
3.                     DynamicBlockReferencePropertyCollection dynBlkRefProps = blkTab.DynamicBlockReferencePropertyCollection;
4.                     foreach (DynamicBlockReferenceProperty dynBlkRefProp in dynBlkRefProps)
5.                     {
6.                         if (dynBlkRefProp.PropertyName.ToUpper().StartsWith("DISTANCE1"))
7.                         {
8.                             // dynBlkRefProp.GetAllowedValues();  --> refer null, no specific dimension is set
9.                             dynBlkRefProp.Value = 114;   //--> message "eInvalidInput" here
10.                            
11.                         }
12.                     }
13.                     dynBlkRefProps.Dispose();
14.                 }

not sure if your code has any actual problems, but mine to do same thing is like:

Code: [Select]

if (props[prop].UnitsType == DynamicBlockReferencePropertyUnitsType.Distance)
    props[prop].Value = (double)dynPropsDict[prop];
else if (props[prop].PropertyTypeCode == 3)
    props[prop].Value = (short)dynPropsDict[prop];
else
    props[prop].Value = (string)dynPropsDict[prop];
props[prop] is the dynBlkRefProp so all I am saying is I only assign double, short, or string props.
maybe try dynBlkRefProp.Value = 114.0? (add the .0)

You are right, with 114.0 it's working.  Thank you !
