Greetings all:
Happy New Year!
Previously, I was able to write add-ins with C# using Visual Studio 2017. However, I am having trouble with VS-2019 and AutoCAD 2021.
I followed the following instructions; however, unable to see the integration (Please see screenshot below). I am missing something simple.
I really appreciate any help you can provide.
Software to Install Prior to Starting
- AutoCAD
Or any other AutoCAD based product. This guide is applicable for all AutoCAD based products. Please replace the text '20xx' to the product version that you are using throughout the guide. - Microsoft® Visual Studio® Community This tutorial will use Visual Basic, but you can also use any professional version of Visual Studio. Some user interface elements may differ between Visual Studio versions
- The ObjectARX SDK
The ObjectARX SDK includes documentation for the AutoCAD .NET API (also referred to as the Managed API), and some important files we must reference from our Visual Studio project. It also includes a number of sample .NET projects. (The SDK contains documentation and files for both the ObjectARX (C++) API and the .NET API. Don’t let all the C++ documentation worry you - .NET is a lot easier). - The AutoCAD .NET Wizards
The Wizards are simple templates you can use to quickly create new AutoCAD .NET (Visual Basic or C#) projects. Importantly for Visual Basic Express users, they setup the project to allow you to launch AutoCAD from your debugger – something that isn’t possible through the Visual Studio Express user interface.
