I know, I know... I said I'd be posting on IronRuby, but yet again I got distracted <sigh>. Back to that next week, I promise. The good news is that, once again, I managed to get distracted by something pretty cool. 🙂 Earlier in the week I'd stumbled across an article mentioning the Bing API […]

Back in April I posted an IronRuby sample that I had hoped would cause AutoCAD to jig a box in 3D, just like its IronPython counterpart. The sample didn't work with IronRuby 0.3, but recently David Blackmon got in touch to let me know he had a version of the code working with IronRuby 0.9. […]

As mentioned a few months ago, we've been working on a project wizard for AutoCAD .NET development. The official version of this tool is now available via the AutoCAD Developer Center (a direct link to the download can be found here). We incorporated a number of enhancement requests received from people working with the previous, […]

I received a comment on this previous post: Hi Kean, I tried to develop a routine based on this post but I found 2 things that I'd like to solve if possible. Your routine is just not usable for larger drawings (takes way to long). Also, your routine does not work properly in paper space. […]

A request came in by email during last week's vacation: I have been looking around to find a way about creating Dimension Style Overrides, but have not really had any success at anything yet. I have created program in which I do create several dimension styles, but I just keep getting lost with the overrides. […]

As announced on Scott Sheppard's blog, It's Alive in the Lab, you can now find the inaugural ADN Plugin of the Month available for download on Autodesk Labs. I introduced the concept a little over a month ago – thanks to all of you who responded! – and we've decided to get things started with […]

In the most recent part of this series, we looked at one possible mechanism to allow points to be moved along a network of curves, extending the first part in this series, which focused on the case of a point on a single curve. This post is going to focus on something slightly different: it's […]

In the last post we looked at some code to create a point on a curve, and make sure it stays on that curve when edited. In this post we're extending that code (albeit slightly) to work with a network of curves: the idea is that any curve which has a point created on it […]

Over the weekend I put together a little prototype to prove a concept for an internal project I'm working on. The idea was to force a point onto a curve (meaning anything inheriting from Curve in AutoCAD, such as Arc, Circle, Ellipse, Leader, Line, Polyline, Polyline2d, Polyline3d, Ray, Spline, Xline…), so that when the point […]

This is a topic that I've covered to some degree in a couple of previous posts: Using AutoCAD's file selection dialog from .NET Replacing AutoCAD's OPEN command using .NET Neither focused on the question of allowing the user to select from a number of different file format filters (try saying "different file format filters" five […]
