如何以动态块名来设置过滤器来过滤图形中所有块参照?
如题,常规块可以通过blockname过滤,而动态块CAD名与取得的blockname不一致?怎么解决?谢谢! 每一个动态块参照的本质是一个匿名块。如果按匿名块的块名来过滤,其过滤器需要在匿名块名前加“‘”字符
例如(2,'*D2) Creating a selection filter that finds dynamic blocks in AutoCAD using .NET
An interesting question came in via email from Rob Outman. He’s interested in applying a selection filter when the user selects dynamic blocks. This is straightforward for unmodified dynamic blocks – just as with standard blocks, you can filter on the block name very easily – but it works less well on dynamic blocks whose properties have been modified at an instance level.
Essentially what happens is this: if you select a block reference to a dynamic block in the AutoCAD editor and then use (for example) the Properties window to edit some of the custom properties associated with that block, the block definition gets duplicated as an anonymous block – with the modified properties, of course – and the reference gets updated to point to that. If you LIST the block reference, you can see that it still mentions the originating block by name, so it’s clear some connection still exists between the two block definitions, at the very least.
Listing the properties of a modified dynamic block reference
This makes it a little difficult to use a SelectionFilter to look for these BlockReference objects, as their associated BlockTableRecord has a name such as “*U24” rather than the name being searched for.
The answer to this riddle was actually reasonably straightforward, in the end. Using the very handy ArxDbg sample, it was easy to find out that the modified block definition contains XData linking back to the original – under the AcDbBlockRepBTag app name there’s an entry containing its handle – which we can use to compile a list of the (anonymous) names of modified blocks for which to look.
ArxDbg showing the XData linking modified dynamic blocks to their originals
We can then create a conditional SelectionFilter – with an “or” clause listing each of these names – and use that to find any block meeting the condition.
Here’s the C# code that does all this:
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.EditorInput;
using System.Collections.Generic;
namespace EntitySelection
{
public class Commands
{
static public void SelectDynamicBlocks()
{
var doc = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument;
var ed = doc.Editor;
var pso =
new PromptStringOptions(
"\nName of dynamic block to search for"
);
pso.AllowSpaces = true;
var pr = ed.GetString(pso);
if (pr.Status != PromptStatus.OK)
return;
string blkName = pr.StringResult;
List blkNames = new List();
blkNames.Add(blkName);
var tr = doc.TransactionManager.StartTransaction();
using (tr)
{
var bt =
(BlockTable)tr.GetObject(
doc.Database.BlockTableId,
OpenMode.ForRead
);
// Start by getting the handle of our block, if it exists
if (!bt.Has(blkName))
{
ed.WriteMessage(
"\nCannot find block called \"{0}\".", blkName
);
return;
}
var btr =
(BlockTableRecord)tr.GetObject(
bt, OpenMode.ForRead
);
var blkHand = btr.Handle;
foreach (var bid in bt)
{
// We'll check each block in turn, to see if it has
// XData pointing to our original block definition
var btr2 =
(BlockTableRecord)tr.GetObject(bid, OpenMode.ForRead);
// Only check blocks that don't share the name :-)
if (btr2.Name != blkName)
{
// And only check blocks with XData
var xdata = btr2.XData;
if (xdata != null)
{
// Get the XData as an array of TypeValues and loop
// through it
var tvs = xdata.AsArray();
for (int i=0; iblkNames
)
{
// If we don't have any block names, return null
if (blkNames.Count == 0)
return null;
// If we only have one, return an array of a single value
if (blkNames.Count == 1)
return new TypedValue[] {
new TypedValue(
(int)DxfCode.BlockName,
blkNames
)
};
// We have more than one block names to search for...
// Create a list big enough for our block names plus
// the containing "or" operators
List tvl =
new List(blkNames.Count + 2);
// Add the initial operator
tvl.Add(
new TypedValue(
(int)DxfCode.Operator,
""
)
);
// Return an array from the list
return tvl.ToArray();
}
}
}
An interesting point to note: we need to prefix any anonymous block name with an inverted apostrophe (“`”) character, as that seems to be the way to “escape” asterisks in this situation. 非常感谢! 标记一下,方便查找
