Stephen tells me it needs a bit of polishing, but the game is certainly playable. I've reformatted some of Stephen's code to fit this blog. The implementation comprises two main files, which you can name as you […]

So here we are on Sunday, instead, for another installment of Wayne Brill's AutoCAD .NET training DevTV series (to complement those from previous weeks). Today's session is focused on working with dictionaries and other types […]

After focusing on a manual process for sweeping a solid inside AutoCAD in this previous post, it seemed to make sense to attempt to automate more of that process. In the code in this post, we take a standard circular profile – of a user-specified radius – and sweep it along the path defined by […]
