Dynamic Block Creation

Anonymous — Mon, 19 Mar 2012 17:04:49 GMT

Hello,
It's possible to create a dynamic block programatically?
I want to create a command that captures differents selection sets of drawing objects and assign them to different Visibility States of a new block deffinition, on run time.

Thanks in advance.

Hi there,

As far as I know it's still not possible to create dynamic block definitions programmatically. Sorry. 😞

Just in the unlikely case I misunderstood and you actually want to insert dynamic blocks and set their properties, then this post should be useful: http://through-the-interface.typepad.com/through_the_interface/2009/03/accessing-the-properties-of-a-dynamic-autocad-block-using-net.html

Thanks for the quick reply Adam,
I already use that for Block operations on my plugin. I really want a way to create a customized tool for Dynamic Blocks authoring, without using block editor.
