reading xref file

Recommended Posts

I often need to perform offset of objects existing in xref drawings. for that I have to first draw line/pline etc along the

xref entity and then offset that new created line etc.

Is it possible to directly offset the xref entity instead of first creating its copy in the working drawing.

Thanks.

Alan,

 

Quick question - what does the transformation matrix do in that code? - I've never really got to using one, (except in grvecs).

Moves the cloned object to the correct location.

Entmake a nested object and you'll see that it creates it at 0,0,0. You have to use the transformation matrix to correct the placement, based on the original object's matrix.
