Hi Alexander, half of the last problem it's solved. Using CADViewX1.CADImage.Converter.Loads(your_entity) the circle shows itself with the new dimension (changing of course the Radius). But when I want to move the inserted block "Circle1" in another position of the draw I try to change the value of ...

Hi Alexander, Great!! your explanation is clear: when I point to an Entity and the EntityName is "CIRCLE" the Entity "is" the object Circle, so I can get all the properties of it (and the same for all the kind of entities). Without your help it should have been very hard to understand the concept. T...

Hi Alexander, you are really gentle and perhaps I'm not so skilled in VB (or perhaps I'm thick as a brick). I know that if I want to point to an object I must use the correct path in the library. The root is always my OCX object (i.e. CADVIEWX1). To reach the object I want I have to explore the conn...

Hi Alexander, So is clearer! Now I can point to all Entities of the draw, but there are still two tasks I cannot achieve: 1) Using the path you gave me (CADViewX.CADImage.Converter.Sections(2).Entities(i)) I can browse all Entities and sub-Entities but I have to know the base point of a block and th...

Regarding Block the answer is clear: in the draw are painted only instances of the blocks (they are in a different space). In the following answer there is something I cannot understand: You say that if I want to browse entities collection I have to point CADViewX.CADImage.Converter.Entities(i), but...

I have to point to some objects of a DWG draw. For example to a block named "CircleA" in which there is a red filled circle. The most intuitive way to point it is to browse the blocks by CADViewX1.CADImage.Blocks(n) until I find it. It works, but the returned box points are wrong! And then, how can ...

Thanks, it works!

i need to change on the fly some attributes of a dwg image.
For example I have changed the color of an object (CADVIEWX1.CADIMAGE.BLOCK.ENTITY.COLOR) but the image doesn't change.
Which is the command to redraw the image with the changes I've done?
thanks

Roberto
