Insert block in AcadTable

[jlsantiago]

I need to insert an AcadBlockReference into AcadTable, but i've got an error with the block ObjectId property. 


//*****************Sample Code*************************************
AcadApplication gbl_app = null;
AcadDocument gbl_doc = null;
AcadLayout presentacion = null;
AcadTable tablaAcad = null;
            gbl_app = (AcadApplication)Marshal.GetActiveObject("AutoCAD.Application");
gbl_doc = gbl_app.ActiveDocument;
object AC_entidad = new object();
object basePnt2 = null;

gbl_doc.Utility.GetEntity(out AC_entidad, out basePnt2, "Seleccione objeto:");
AcadBlockReference objBlock = (AcadBlockReference)AC_entidad;
bloqueId = objBlock.ObjectID; 
 
double[] vertices = new double [3];
vertices[0] = 49.24;
vertices[1] = 155;
vertices[2] = 0;
 

tablaAcad = gbl_doc.ActiveLayout.Block.AddTable(vertices, 4, 2, 3, 10);
tablaAcad.SetCellTextHeight(0, 0, 2);

tablaAcad.SetTextHeight(5, 1.5);
tablaAcad.SetColumnWidth(0, 5);
tablaAcad.SetColumnWidth(1, 50);
 
tablaAcad.SetBlockTableRecordId(3, 0, bloqueId , true);

//ERROR: Not valid class

The SetBlockTableRecordId() needs the Id of the BLOCK, not the BlockReference as you are passing.

Change this: 

bloqueId = objBlock.ObjectId;

to this:

bloqueId = objBlock.BlockTableRecord;

objBlock does not allow me to use "BlockTableRecord"

I'm not using API.NET

OK, sorry about that, same idea, though. You still need the BlockId, it's just a bit different to get it. I don't have Acad here to test, but based on the code you posted, this should work:

bloqueId = gbl_doc.Blocks.Item(objBlock.Name).ObjectID;

Solved the problem. Thank you.
