Topic: database changes command HIDEOBJECTS

[Harrie]

In AutoCAD 2011 you have the command HIDEOBJECTS
and UNISOLATEOBJECTS.

This is not done with the DXF code 60!
Like the program INVIS.lsp
http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?59655/page2

This is also not done with the Visible property!

Code: [Select]

(vl-load-com)
(vlax-put-property (vlax-ename->vla-object (car (entsel))) 'Visible 0)
What are the database changes, when I use the
command HIDEOBJECTS.

Regards.

I think it is in the dictionary "ACAD_OBJECTISOLATION".

Code: [Select]

(setq dic (dictsearch (namedobjdict) "ACAD_OBJECTISOLATION"))But I can't see the names of the entities.

Regards.

Indeed, the XRecord stored in that Dictionary doesn't reveal much at all; neither does Google

This is the only thing I was able to ascertain from the ACAD_OBJECTISOLATION Dictionary:

Code - Auto/Visual Lisp: [Select]

1.   (
2.     (-1 . <Entity name: 7ef03b08>)
3.     (0 . "XRECORD")
4.     (5 . "501")
5.     (102 . "{ACAD_REACTORS")
6.     (330 . <Entity name: 7ef01c60>)
7.     (102 . "}")
8.     (330 . <Entity name: 7ef01c60>)
9.     (100 . "AcDbXrecord")
10.     (280 . 1)
11.     (70 . 7) ;; <---  This increments whenever HIDEOBJECTS, ISOLATEOBJECTS or UNISOLATEOBJECTS is used.
12.     (70 . -1)
13.   )

Other than that, this feature doesn't appear to be exposed to LISP

That's a bummer.
