Hello,
I develop winforms in C#.
I need to develop a very simple UI and code that will be shown/invoked when the person working at my client company plots his/her drawing. I am not sure what version of Autocad will be used, it might be 2014, or the previous version.
I need to "prompt" the user for the Job Id, and three other items.
With one of the fields I prompt for, I will want to populate it from a database.
Could I get a very simple introduction on how to do this?
Thank you,
RR
Is the question on how to create the UI or for plotting? or both? Or are you asking how to read an external database value or are you asking how to read a DWG database value?
If you haven't seen it I recommend watching our DevTv's also checking out the other resources at http://www.autodesk.com/developautocad
Hi,
If you are new to AutoCAD programming, please download the .Net training material from the developer center.
There are eight tutorials with code and detailed explanations to get you started with AutoCAD programming.
For displaying UI in AutoCAD, lab-4 from .Net training material will help :
