State of the Active X Lisp commands

[Pixel_Outlaw]

Hello All,

Many of the VisualLISP commands seem to involve Active X behind the scenes.

Do these commands still work in modern version of windows?
Do these commands carry over to different competing CAD products which use VisualLISP (non AutoCAD).

I'm just trying to determine how much of VisualLISP has rotten away with time.
What's safe, what's not. What's portable etc.

Depends on the software.  id say most if not all visual lisp still work with the big names.

The one that stands out for me is Get & Setproperty is not supported on all CAD platforms. You can use VL or entget functions to do the same.
