Solved by SENL1362. Go to Solution.
Confused met to but the solution is simple.
This PlotStyleDialog can only be used in the so called Named Plot Style drawings.
So if you're dialog does not show its probably the Color Depended drawing type -- most drawings still are.
You need to create a STB style first, then convert the drawing.
Try this before running the program:
Command: CONVERTCTB
acad.ctb
new.stb
Command: CONVERTPSTYLES
new.stb
Command: NETLOAD
<youreNamedDLL>
Command: psd
