Thanks! No - want to make some experiments with proxy so I need them 😉

autoCADMEP move likely, but you ought to find out from the file/content creator, not anywhere else.

Actually I know from which tool this proxy entities are (Thanks ObjectEnabler!) - was interesting how names of this proxy entities were created by program - how and from which list it mapped with proxy objects

I am not sure to understand, becauseyourself told about it,

but I try it:

"was interesting how names of this proxy entities were created by program - how and from which list it mapped with proxy objects"

1. It's stored in each Proxy objects and

2. the list of object class is stored in your DWG

In DXF and AutoLISP for example,

Proxy object group code 91 pointing to the Class object.

(If you are interesting in DXF/AutoLisp, read the help about the proxy object type)

Enough for know?

If you like to know the real details, read programmer stuff about C++/ARX and how to define own objects.

So my idea was to get full list of such classes like AECB_DUCT, AECB_DUFCTFITTING ...let's say AECB_LIGHT (just from my head)..not for particular project but as standard. But I suppose no such list in open resource. But anyway thanks for help! 😉

If you have access to the program what create such objects, you can extract such a list pretty sure,
and if there is a .net/c++ API, you can extract it by programming.

Or access to the object enabler!
Also in this case the chance is big to get the most of the object types.

if they are readable in the oe data files.

Your sample "AECB_DUCT" and "AECB_DUFCTFITTING" are from AutoDESKs MEP Toolset..

For example: Some programs can read in (sorry, I can't give a sample program what can extract the readable data from these files | I am not familiar with it)

..in program filesAutoCAD 20xx\AecbHvacBase.dbx or AecbElecBase.dbx
you can find "AECB_DUCT" and "AECB_DUFCTFITTING"

Tip: Ask in .net or C++/ARX Forum!

So you’re using plain vanilla AutoCAD to view AEC objects, correct? With the Object Enabler you can view. It won’t let you edit or do any heavy stuff.

Was the original drawing created in P&ID? Or MEP? Or something else?

If you want to do a deep dive into how the data was created or what reports can be run from that data then you need to ask the original author or install the original program itself.

Thanks for showing me *.dbx files ....sadly it is impossible to open them.

But after DBX files one clever man showed me *mgd.dll files in AutoCAD MEP and it gave some new info but definitely it is more developer question. We should stop here and move forward. Thanks to all!
