I have certain DXF file when read displays an odd character for just the 'N' in the line of characters. It is a line of characters and not a text string. The DXF is produced by IDEAS software. Any idea as to what might cause this in Version 5.25?

Update: I reinstalled the C++ Builder 2006 and it compiled correctly.[:I]

Hi, I've just converted to C++ Builder 2006 and want to install Import VCL 5.25. When attempting to build sgGrpvwBCB2006.bpl project I get a linker error that file uxTheme.Obj is missing. I compiled a version of uxTheme.pas and added the .obj to the path. Then I get more errors. What am I doing wrong?

Hi,
I am still having difficulty determing text entity location. When iterating through the Text entities the StartPoint on a number of them shows as 0,0,0 yet they are not in the same spot. The HAlign/VAlign are set the same. What am I doing incorrectly?

Regards,

Thanks Sergey. I'll give that a go.

Hi,

Thank you for the information. I missed the Text StartPoint altogether. We enclose certain text entities inside a polyline (rectangular box) to denote subassembly. What is my best method to ascertain whether a text's StartPoint is inside the boundaries of such a polyline?

I am experimenting with several features of the VCL import and having difficulty understanding the point values. For instances TsgDXFText has a 'Box' property and a 'Point' property. What are these in relation to? Do they require conversion?

Thanks
