HowTo check object type?

[Jef_E]

Hi!

I made an AddIn that works with centermarks and centerlines. I use this frequently but I found an bug in my program.

If you use automated centerlines to for a flange bolt pattern you get a circle on the bolt diameter and centerline on the holes. But this centerline is not the same type of line as other centerlines.

Is there a way to know what type of line this is? So I can add this type into my AddIn that users can select it.

Hi Jef

Select a line on your drawing.  Then run a script in VBa that calls up the drawing document.

Check your locals.  Under the drawing document in the select set is your selected line.  Within it is the style.  I checked the two line styles in my drawing I currently have open and they are exaclty the same.

I would check your styles.  Go to "Styles editor" > "Standard" > your current active standard > "Object defaults"

In here there will be a listing of the styles used for your different centrelines.

Hope this helps.
