ActiveX - is xref clipped?

Hello,

Is there a way similar to

(vla-getextensiondictionary (vlax-ename->vla-object (cdr (assoc -1
XRDXF))))) 1)

that will tell me if an xref is clipped or not?

Thank you,
Mark

 

Yes.

I believe it's the presences of assoc 360.

 

Nope. I have an unclipped xref with 360. This points to multiple references

From help:
360 Hard owner ID/handle to owner dictionary (optional) no default

360-369 Hard-owner handle; arbitrary hard ownership links to other objects
within same DXF file or drawing. Translated during INSERT and XREF
operations

360 Hard owner reference to IDBUFFER (multiple entries may exist)

 

I know that when I do a tblsearch for that object, that it returns that the
boundary is the first entity in it's dxf.

 

Rudy,

Are you sure you know what tblsearch is doing?

It finds the record of that block. What if you have the same xref in a
drawing twice, one is clipped, the other is not. Which one is tblsearch
referencing? BOTH.

Therefore tblsearch cannot be giving you specific information on any one
"block", ie,. the boundary dxf info.

 

Sorry, but when I actually scan the xref, I get the boundary as the first
entity.

 

Would you mind showing how you "scan"?

(tblsearch "block" xrefname) only returns 1 ename here.
