Block "bounds" for Dynamic blocks?

Anonymous — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 20:15:44 GMT

Is there a way to obtain the "bounds" for the Visible version of a
dynamic block?.. the "Bounds" option always returns the bounds for all
the hidden options..

TIA

Dim myBlockRef_Extents As Extents3d = myBlockRef.Bounds

this returns the "bounding box" (bounds) of the block reference..
basically a imaginary rectangle that encloses all the data of the block.

That clear up the mud?
