Add custom properties to the object properties palette

Hello, I would like to know if, through the .NET API, it is possible to create customizable properties within the AutoCAD "Properties" Palette.

For example, within the Palette, there are tabs "General", "Geometry" and others, I would like to know if it is possible to create more tabs in this style, and add customizable properties within them.

If anyone can help me or have an example, I would be grateful.

You cannot do it with AutoCAD .NET API. It can be done with quite involved effort and I would rather use .NET API's PaletteSet to display custom data in most cases.

 

There have been a few discussion on this topic, such as this:
