getGripPoints, getOsnapPoints problem

Anonymous — Tue, 13 Apr 2004 11:49:11 GMT

I've implemented a custom entity! My problems. I've tried to overwrite getGripPoints & getOsnapPoints functions, but if I set for example an grippoint (AcGePoint3d pt = new ... ; pt.setPosition(x,y,z) the position is related to the Viewport and NOT to my custom entity ! Don't know why...it's just like in AsdkPoly sample but...it doesn't work. My second problem : for example my new ent is a point with 3 visible text labels atached. What should I overwrite to make some properties of my ent to be manipulated from ObjectProperties window? I'll be very happy if a simple custom entity example will be atached to your replies! (to be more specific, i was inspired from AdeskLogo entity from ArxDbg sample so i'll love something similar, eventually with an overwrited explode function too). Thanks a lot, ing. Vladimir Gora

Hi Vladimir, I can't help you with your first issue, but to take advantage of the Object Properties window, you must implement a COM wrapper for your object. Check out the compoly example. -- Jon Rizzo Langan Engineering and Environmental Services, Inc. "Vladimir Gora" wrote in message news:407bd3ba_3@newsprd01... > I've implemented a custom entity!

Well, with my first problem there was a simple solution (as always -:) ) the location() function. Now I'm dealing with moveGripPointsAt function. I'll take a look at compoly example. Thanks!
