Changing Attrib positions in TsgDXFInsert

Hi,
I can change TsgDXFInsert positions but I'can't change TsgDXFAttdef or TsgDXFAttrib in the TsgDXFInsert. When I move a TsgDXFInsert entity, Attribs which are in the TsgDXFInsert are keep their positions.
Could you help me to do that.
Bilal.

Hello Bilal.
Attrib object displays on drawing specified string value instead the corresponding Attdef object that is inside a block. DXF specification provides Attribs placement on the drawing. TsgDXFAttrib have drawing coordinates and doesn't moved with insert. Insert moving affects placement of entities that contained in corresponding block.

Hi,
do you mean do I have to move Attribs individual?

That's correct. Attribs have drawing coordinates and must be moved separately. Moving insert affects placement of entities inside correspond block only. Such entities have block coordinates.

Hi,
all entities in the TsgDXFImage are moved except Attribs, please check out the images, I am trying to move an Insert and Attribs stay where it is. I used Editor demo.

Hello Bilal.
Editor demo doesn't provided as full-functional application but demo. Unfortunately it doesn't support attribs visual editing, sorry. Such feature provided by ABViewer for example. Anyway you can move inserts with attribs programmatically:
Code: Select all
ent := Img.Converter.Entities[index];
if ent.EntType = ceInsert then
begin
TsgDXFInsert(ent).Point := MakeFPoint(x, y, z);
Img.Converter.Loads(ent);
for I := 0 to TsgDXFInsert(ent).Attribs.Count - 1 do
Img.Converter.Loads(TsgDXFInsert(ent).Attribs[i]);
end;
Img.GetExtents();
