How to create a custom PaperSpace?

Anonymous — Sat, 28 Apr 2012 08:23:49 GMT

I got the following code from internet.

    bool createlayout(AcDbObjectId& layoutId,AcDbObjectId& btrId)
   {
       AcApLayoutManager *pLayerM =(AcApLayoutManager*)acdbHostApplicationServices()->layoutManager();
       TCHAR* nextLayoutName = pLayerM->getNextNewLayoutName(NULL);

       bool bRes = false;
       if (Acad::eOk == pLayerM->createLayout(nextLayoutName, layoutId,btrId))
       {
           pLayerM->setDefaultPlotConfig(btrId);
           pLayerM->setCurrentLayout(nextLayoutName);
           pLayerM->updateLayoutTabs();

           bRes = true;
       }
       acutDelString(nextLayoutName);
       return bRes;

   }

To my surprise, there are no methods like "setPapersize(double dWidth,double dHeight)" from ApLayoutManager or ApLayout.

but i want to create a custom size paperspace. any way to do it?

there is a method "getPlotPaperSize" from AcdbLayout, where is the "setPlotPaerSize"?

I don't have an answer, but the paper size is correlated with the chosen output device, so likely stored as part of the page setup for the layout.

yes ,the paper size has something to do with the Print device.
