Attach image from VB.NET to AutoCad

Anonymous — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 18:20:42 GMT

Hello!

I have just started to programming VB.NET with AutoCad but can´t find any information about how to attach a image from a userform commandbuton into AutoCad. I have programming in VBA before but can´t find any solution for inserting pictures in VB.NET. Is it possible to use the "imageattach" with attributes? or -image command? Or should I use Rasterimage?

I want a image (*.jpg*) file to appear in AutoCad when I press the Commandbutton in my Form.

I hope you understand what I mean. And excuse,if my english is bad!

Thanks

Hi! Thanks for the link. Have looked there and can only find codes for C#. What library do I need to import for doing rasterimage?

Reference library is acdbmgd. Rasterimagedef is a member of Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices.

My code samples are limited. You should search here for more.

ObjectID of dictionary is

Dim imagedictionaryId As ObjectId = RasterImageDef.GetImageDictionary(db)

Dictionary is

Dim imagedictionary As DBDictionary = tx.GetObject(imagedictionaryId, OpenMode.ForWrite)
