Topic: Newly created object to new layer

[cadpro]

Hi,

I create a polyline  as the code below:

Code: [Select]

doc.SendStringToExecute("_PLINE" & vbCr, True, False, True)
As soon as this is created, a form pops up where I want to save the created pline into a new layer. I have code to create the new layer. This is called in the save button of the second form as here:

Code: [Select]

Dim layerId as ObjectId = CreateLayer("testlayer")
Would this be possible?

Thanks

Yes, you can create the layer and add it to the object post creation but be careful using the SendStringToExecute.  I was told by ADN members that this doesn't always perform the way you would expect it too.  The string is put in a que to execute but sometimes may not execute during this line of code thus when you go to change the object's layer the object may not exist yet.
