find a dynamic bloc

[tarin_lc]

Hello,
Here is a LISP code to find the coordinates of a block. It works perfectly except in the case of a dynamic block, which doesn't find it. What could I change to find the coordinates or other properties of a dynamic block?

thanks a lot !

This will find dynamic blocks in a layout

(setq ss (ssget "X" (list (cons 0 "INSERT")(cons 2 "*U*")(cons 410 (getvar 'ctab)))))

You can then get properties like layer and Insertionpoint. You can go deeper and get the dynamic properties. I would also look at Effectivename which is original block name.

hi,

change in the code 

this

(if (= (vla-get-Name item) "1")

for that

(if (= (vla-get-effectiveName item) "1")
