Block "bounds" for Dynamic blocks?

Anonymous
Not applicable

Is there a way to obtain the "bounds" for the Visible version of a
dynamic block?..  the "Bounds" option always returns the bounds for all
the hidden options..



TIA

Dim myBlockRef_Extents As Extents3d = myBlockRef.Bounds



this returns the "bounding box" (bounds) of the block reference.. 
basically a imaginary rectangle that encloses all the data of the block.



That clear up the mud?
