How to know base point of drawing before/or after inserting into other drawing?

[scadcam]

Hi,

I ´m working on application that creates a series of drawings. To create one of these drawings, I insert a dxf file first at (0,0), then a second dxf at (0,0) and everything is written to a dwg file with wblock.

This procedure is repeated in a loop and get all dwg files.

Unfortunately, the first dxf has a base point different from (0,0) and does not match  with the second drawing that has base at (0,0).

If I knew the base point of first dxf file I could compensate but don´t know how to get it.

Anybody could help me?

Regards

In the DXF file you can search for the $INSBASE of the drawing before inserting it.

good luck,
