Make Block

[Anonymous]

I would like to make a block with Entmake.

This works fine with me, but how do I give my block the properties AlowExplode, Annotative, ScaleUniformly and InsUnits ?

w.k.r.

These are stored in the BLOCK_RECORD Entity, to my knowledge, you will need to entmake the BLOCK entity, its contents, then the ENDBLK entity, then modify the corresponding BLOCK_RECORD entity.

Here is an example of setting the InsUnits for a block created using entmake.

Thanks,

This works fine with InsUnits (dxf 70) AllowExplode (dxf 280) and ScaleUniformly (dxf 281).

Does anyone know how to make an existing block annotative with lisp ?

w.k.r.

Extension Dictionaries.  That's pretty much all I know and I don't understand how they work enough to typically mess with them.  But that's what an annotative block has that regular ones don't.
