Text Height Update In C Sharp
Well I have tried the following:
using (var tr = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction())
{
foreach (SelectedObject so in psr.Value)
{
var id = so.ObjectId;
if (id.ObjectClass.IsDerivedFrom(textClass))
{
var text = (DBText)tr.GetObject(id, OpenMode.ForWrite);
text.Height = textStyles[text.TextStyleName];
}
else
{
var mtext = (MText)tr.GetObject(id, OpenMode.ForRead);
//var mtext = (MText)tr.GetObject(id, OpenMode.ForWrite);
mtext.Height = textStyles[mtext.TextStyleName];
var regex = new System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex(@"\\W\d*(\.\d+)?;", System.Text.RegularExpressions.RegexOptions.IgnoreCase);
mtext.Contents = regex.Replace(mtext.Contents, "");
}
}
tr.Commit();
}
}
Right now I am getting the error message
Look at the error message. What do you think eNotOpenForWrite means?
You can't modify an object unless you open it for write.

This seems to work from the some tests I did.

I looked at of your tutorial webpages.
Do you have any of your tutorials that are in English?
Only this one which was mainly translated with Bing and/or Google I don't remember.
You should learn C# / .NET / Visual Studio / OOP outside of AutoCAD first. There's a big amount of learning material for this.
And only after you're cumfortable with all this stuff, you can come back to AutoCAD programming with some background which will compensate the lack of documentation of the AutoCAD API.
Well I just down loaded and installed. Looks like there is a docs folder with a setup files. I installed those files but I don't know where to go to use the documents files. Is there some useful tools in that folder?
