Is it a bug?

[Anonymous]

Hi,all.

Dim lay As Layout= ......
If lay.LayoutName (not equal sign) "Model" Then
Dim Vpt as ViewPort= ........
MsgBox (Vpt.objectId.Tostring)
End If

The above code occurs error.
If I explore Layout1 and Layout2 and excute my code then
the result is correct objectid.

We should explore? No another method?
Thanks in advance.

Layouts are completely empty until they are initialized. When you "explore"
each layout, that causes them to be populated with the Paperspace viewport
and usually one other viewport through which Model Space can be viewed.

Thank you very much.
Is it no way to initialize layout not manually but programmatically?

There's an Initialize() method on the Layout class that will create the
paper space viewport and set it up. It will not create any viewports to
view model space with - you can add those yourself after the Initialize()
method has returned.
