I am trying to make the DIMSCALE and the AMSYMSCALE to be the same. Even though the Autocad help files says AMSYMSCALE is a system variable, it is not. So I have to change it with an execute command line.
So if I use:
Dim dblScale as double = "0.5"
Dim ThisDrawing As Document = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument
ThisDrawing.SendStringToExecute("._amsymscale " & dblScale & " ", True, False, False)
Application.SetSystemVariable("DIMSCALE", dblDimScale)
I get an exception error. If I take out line 4 then the execute command works. If I take out lines 2 and 3, then the setsystemvariable command works. But they will not work together. I guess I can just do two execute commands but I was just wondering why they both do not work together.
