VB.net sendstringtoexecute

[bart_van_tuyl]

Hi I have the following VB.net code which works, but not how I would like. The code when net loaded and run inserts the dxf but still prompts for rotation and scale factor I thought I could set these seeing the sendstringtoexecute looks like common lisp but I can't archive my desierd result (I'm trying to insert with a scale factor of 1 and a rotation of 0)

Code as follows

Imports autodesk.autocad.applicationservices
Imports autodesk.AutoCAD.editorinput
Imports autodesk.AutoCAD.runtime

Public class class1
<command method("insblk")>
Public sub insblk()
Dim a doc as document = application.documentmanager.mdiactivedocument
A doc.senstringtoexecute("._insert c:\test.dxf" , false, false, false)
End sub
End class

SendStringToExecute will do exactly what you want you just need to give it the right information.  In your example above you are only telling it the drawing to insert.  You did not give it the scale factor or the rotation information.

so your SendStringToExecute line.

doc.sendstringtoexecute("._insert c:\test.dxf" , false, false, false)

would become something like this.

doc.sendstringtoexecute("._insert c:\test.dxf 1 0" , false, false, false)
