Dispalying a drawing thumbnail

Hi,

The program dwgthumbnail.ocx does not appear to handle R2000 and R2004 file
formats.

What technique is necessary to display thumbnails of a VBA form ?

 

I still have version 1.4 but its working fine with Acad2004.
Wheres the latest version located?

Hi Terry,

I was using v1.0. I've searched the web and the latest I can find is v1.7.

Like Perry I need a guideline to find v2.0

FWIW, I've found that the file format does not matter so much as whether or
not the bitmap preview as been created or not.

Hi Joe,

It looks like this is right.

I found the drawing where my code was crashing didn't have a saved bitmap
preview . I loaded the drawing in R2004, did a zoom extents and saved it.

The code then ran. I can now complete it with relevant error control.

My next query relates to the fact that some of the bitmap previews have
white backgrounds and some black.

Has anyone experienced this problem ?

I've had that problem too, havent found a solution yet.
Would still like to know where to get the latest version...

 

Don't know the answer to the background question, but, I had the same problem
with WMF files until I found the system variable WMFBKGND. There may be a
setting for thumbnails also.
