.NET

[#1]

Hello,

I've searched a lot, but I didn't find any solution for my problem.

I've function written in C#:

    [CommandMethod("GDF")]
        public void doDimLinear()
        {
            DF.doDimLinear();
        }

 In DF class, in doDimLinear function at the end I have:

doc.SendStringToExecute("dimlinear ", false, false, false);

And everything works OK, my function is switching layer, setting dimension style and invoking dimlinear function.

But when I want to repeat last command (by spacebar, right mouse) I have dimlinear command instead of GDF.

Can anyone help me?

My guees is you have to use acedCmd instead

Quick example, works good on A2010

        [System.Security.SuppressUnmanagedCodeSecurity]
        [DllImport("acad.exe", EntryPoint = "acedCmd", CharSet = CharSet.Unicode, CallingConvention = CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
        extern static private int acedCmd(IntPtr resbuf);

        [CommandMethod("dimlin")]

        public void acedCmdDimLinear()
        {

            ResultBuffer rb = new ResultBuffer();

            // RTSTR = 5005

            rb.Add(new TypedValue(5005, "_.DIMLINEAR"));

            // start the insert command

            acedCmd(rb.UnmanagedObject);



            bool quit = false;

            // loop round while the insert command is active

            while (!quit)
            {

                // see what commands are active

                string cmdNames = (string)Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.GetSystemVariable("CMDNAMES");

                // if the INSERT command is active

                if (cmdNames.ToUpper().IndexOf("DIMLINEAR") >= 0)
                {

                    // then send a PAUSE to the command line

                    rb = new ResultBuffer();

                    // RTSTR = 5005 - send a user 3 pause to the command line

                    rb.Add(new TypedValue(5005, "\\")); rb.Add(new TypedValue(5005, "\\")); rb.Add(new TypedValue(5005, "\\"));

                    acedCmd(rb.UnmanagedObject);

                }

                else

                    // otherwise quit

                    quit = true;

            }

        }

Seems to work:

       ResultBuffer rb = new ResultBuffer();
            // RTSTR = 5005
            rb.Add(new TypedValue(5005, "_.dimlinear"));
            utilities.acedCmd(rb.UnmanagedObject);

Thank you!

Glad you get it worked
