Is it possable in to get plotter names in a combo box?

AutoCAD VBA 2010.

Is it possable to get the plot driver names and put them in a combo box or later

programming plot uses.

I am trying the following code but I am not having any luck.

Private Sub CommandButton12_Click()

Dim P As Object

Dim p1 As Object

Dim PL As String

Dim x As Integer

Set P = ThisDrawing.PlotConfigurations

'Set p1 =

PL = P.ConfigName

ComboBox1.Value = "Plotter Name"

For Each PL In P.ConfigName

'ComboBox1.AddItem (P.Name)

MsgBox P.Name

Next

End Sub

I am also interested in getting available pin files in a combo box but

I need to figure out how to do it with plotter names first.

Thank you,

I tried something like this...

Dim i As Integer
Dim default As Integer
Dim PName As String
'DirList1.Drive = "H:"
'DirList1.Path = "\Design_Office"
'DirList1.Pattern = "*.dwg"
default = 0
For i = 1 To UBound(ThisDrawing.ModelSpace.Layout.GetPlotDeviceNames)
PName = ThisDrawing.ModelSpace.Layout.GetPlotDeviceNames(i)
cmbPrinters.AddItem PName
If PName = "PR03" Then default = i - 1
Next
cmbPrinters.ListIndex = default
For i = 0 To UBound(ThisDrawing.ModelSpace.Layout.GetPlotStyleTableNames)
cmbStyle.AddItem (ThisDrawing.ModelSpace.Layout.GetPlotStyleTableNames(i))
Next
cmbStyle.ListIndex = 0
End Sub

I've never really programmed in VBA, but does this help?

Sub GetPlotNames ()

   Dim i As Integer
   Dim Layout As ACADLayout
   Set Layout = ThisDrawing.ModelSpace.Layout
   
   Layout.RefreshPlotDeviceInfo

   Dim plotDevices As Variant
   plotDevices = Layout.GetPlotDeviceNames()
   
   For i = LBound(plotDevices) To UBound(plotDevices)
       MsgBox plotDevices(i)
   Next
   
End Sub

Thanks the second group of code worked. I have not tryed the first yet.

Can that code be modified to get pin setting files location???

Is there any information/tutorials on the AutoCAD plot objects

so I can figure out this stuff myself.

There is quite a lot of information in the Visual LISP Editor help files :wink:
