Macro/Keyboard Command For Exporting .idw To .dxf

Hello everyone,

 

I have keyboard commands set up for exporting my .idw drawings to .pdf format (PD for me.) I would also like to set this up for exporting my drawing to .dxf format. I think this can be done with a macro that can be activated by a keyboard command, but I could be wrong. I don't want to do this with an iLogic. Does anyone else have this written all ready? I have absolutely no experience with script writing and would appreciate any help! Or if anyone has a better suggestion, that would be great as well!

 

~Gary

You can snip it out of this. (u will have to extract from zip first).

I have loaded the ivb file and assigned it a key prompt (DX.) However, when I enter this, nothing appears to happen. Am I doing something wrong?

Just wondering... are u doing this so you can export the flat pattern?

No, I need to export the entire drawing (side views and all) into DXF. The line that it's asking me to debug is:

    b = dxfAddIn.HasSaveCopyAsOptions(file, context, map)

Not exactly sure why you are getting that error. Hopefully someone else can take a look.
