AutoCadConfigFile Property

Description

Property to get\set the AutoCAD configuration .ini file.

Property type

Read-write property

Syntax

Visual Basic
Public Property AutoCadConfigFile As String

Remarks

When opening draft files, the OpenWithTemplate method allows the designation of both the AutoCAD file and the Draft file Template, but does not allow the designation of the SEACAD.INI file to be used. Since the units designation is is the SEACAD.INI file, there is a possibility of loading a DXF file at the wrong scale factor (when loading programmatically).
