Read and set Dimension style from current drawing file.

jlobo2 — Mon, 01 Jul 2019 19:01:39 GMT

How do I read, from a Dimension Style table in the current drawing, and set it to an object to be used later for drawing?

The code below, returns object id as null. Am I missing something here?

Thank You for your help in advance.

AcDbDimStyleTable *pDimensionStyleTbl;

theDb->getSymbolTable(pDimensionStyleTbl, AcDb::kForRead);
pDimensionStyleTbl->getAt(_T("_STANDARD"), idDimensionStyleStandard);

Hi,

Please try.. something like

AcDbDimStyleTable *pDimStyleTable = NULL;
AcDbDatabase *pDwg = acdbHostApplicationServices()->workingDatabase();
if (pDwg->getDimStyleTable(pDimStyleTable, AcDb::kForRead) == Acad::eOk)
{
}
