Hi,

I wanna give the end user the ability to move the map to his desired point on the map. I also want him to specify a zoom status before moving to that point so that he can see the point easily. Also I would like to know if you use a same coordinate that autocad uses or you map the dwg files coordinates to your own one.
thank you

Hi,

Use "GetProperties" to find the geometrical data of an object and then "SetBoundsZoom" to go to the specific zoom

About the CAD coordinates they are the same If you import the drawing at position (0,0,0).
e.g. Call cAvax1.Add_DXF(sDxfFile, sDXFLayers, x, y, z)
When x=0, y=0 and z=0.

Thanks a lot

Hi,

I would like to know how I can use GetProperties method to retrieve coordinates of an object (a text in my case).

Hi,

You can use: cavax1.GetTextGeometry function.
