This example is very similar to the autodesk activeX Insertblock help page. we create a block with nothing in it, then use the object returned just as we obtain the modelspace object to put objects in modelspace. modelspace is a type of block, autodesk tells us.

the graphic methods such as addline are the same for drawing in modelspace and drawing in blockspace.

This is an intuitively different process than creating a block by manual drafting methods. (setq blkref (vla-insertblock mspace pt3 'Blk_Demo1' 1 1 1 0 )) (setq lineobj (vla-AddLine blkdef pt2 pt3)) Finally, Anderson requested that the program work with blocks with any number of attributes. This latter request makes a difference to the Visual LISP method INSERTBLOCK because the model or paper space designation is a required part of that method. Repeat (NEXTSUB) until the entity type is SEQEND rather than VERTEX. In addition, the blocks should be inserted in either model space or in a paper space layout. (setq lineobj (vla-AddLine blkdef pt1 pt2)) You can specify the AutoCAD block to be inserted by entering its name in this edit box or by using the Browse button. Draw a polyline of two line segments and insert a block named PARTB.

(setq blkdef (vla-Add blks pt3 'Blk_Demo1')) (setq lineObj (vla-AddLine mSpace pt1 pt2)) (setq mSpace (vla-get-ModelSpace acadDoc))

(setq acadDoc (vla-get-ActiveDocument acadApp)) OYA AutoCAD 2008 Tip Adjust the Dimension Spacing (Between, autocad lines between dimension 2008 dimensions baseline adjust before spacing using. Set blkref = mspace.InsertBlock(pt3, 'Blk_Demo2', 1, 1, 1, 0) Set acadApp = GetObject(, 'AutoCAD.Application')ĭim pt1(0 To 2) As Double, pt2(0 To 2) As Double
