Course Description

In this course, you will learn how to develop AutoCAD Plugins using VB.NET with Windows Forms. You will be presented 6 hands-on projects to learn from. By the time you finish this course, you will be able to create your own AutoCAD Plugins with User Interfaces that automate AutoCAD processes for your drawings.


The following Projects will be developed in this course:

1)  DrawRectangle - This project is a very simple one but it gives you all the basic knowledge you need to know to use Windows Forms in your plugin.

2) AutomateUpdateLayer - This project will introduce you to processing multiple drawings and updating the layer for each drawing automatically based on the user input from the UI.

3) AutomaticBlockExtractor - This project will let you extract block information into a file. This also processes multiple drawing files in a selected folder.

4) AutomateUpdateTextstyles - This project will let you process multiple drawing files and update the text style of each drawing based on the information provided in the user interface.

5) MultiplePlotToPDF - This project will let you plot multiple drawings into a PDF. This will process individual drawing in the folder and  convert it to PDF automatically.

6) MultiObjectExtractor - This project will process each drawing in a folder and extract each of the object (e.g. Line, Pline, MText, etc.) into a file automatically.


The source code is provided and included in this course and you can use and tweak it according to your requirement.

Everything is great, so far :)

The link for downloading .Net has several things to choose from and the video doesn't say which one to choose.

Great tutorial! Well explained.

Ja der Kurs entsprach genau meinen Vorstellungen. Mit dem Programmcode und den Teilen daraus kann man einfach eigene Applikationen erstellen. Dies ist jetzt der 4te Kurs von Mr. Higuit, den ich belegte. Bis jetzt konnte ich alle Programme mit ACAD 2016 ans Laufen bringen. Die AutoCAD-API-Datei acmgd machte Probleme mit closeanddiscard() und mit dem ...documentmanager.open(). Ich musste die acmgd.dll von einer abgelaufenen AutoCAD-2019 Installation nehmen. Als Verweise also acmgd Acad2019, acdbmgd ACAD 2016, accoremgd ACAD 2016. Dies hat funktioniert. Die dlls kann man auf keinen Fall nicht direkt in den beiden AutoCAD-Versionen mischen! Nur die Verweise in Visual Studio. In zukünftigen Lehrgängen könnte man vielleicht mehr auf die direkte Anwendung des Objektkataloges gehen. Die Hinweise, die in den jeweiligen VisualStudio-Kontexten gegeben werden reichen manchmal nicht aus. Als Beispiel der Public Shared ReadOnly Property DocumentManager As Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.DocumentCollection Member von "Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Core.Application Dabei ist hinter dem as der Typ (also die aufrufbaren Methoden, Properties etc) bezeichnet, das Member bezeichnet dann die Auflistung im Objektkatalog? Ich habe für die Kurse nur je 11 $ gezahlt. Diese sind jedoch auf jeden Fall den vollen Preis wert. Ich warte schon auf den nächsten Kurs. Vielen Dank nochmal.
