Topic: Explode block with annotative state

[latour_g]

Hi,

I need to explode a block that contains annotative objects.   The problem I have is the annotative state get loose after the explode.  Here is what I have :

Code - C#: [Select]

1. DBObjectCollection coll = new DBObjectCollection();
2. br.Explode(coll);
3. System.Collections.IEnumerator iter = coll.GetEnumerator();
4.  
5. while (iter.MoveNext())
6. {
7.        Entity ent = (Entity)iter.Current;
8.        ent.SetDatabaseDefaults();
9.        btr.AppendEntity(ent);
10.        tr.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(ent, true);
11. }
12.  
13. br.Erase();
14. coll.Dispose();

When debugging, I see that "ent" has AnnotativeState at true.

That may involve deep clone. I clone objects and they do not copy the xdata so you may have the same problem.
basically you deep clone the objects from the block and transform them using the blockref.BlockTransform
