Creative2 Posted January 7, 2003 Posted January 7, 2003 Hi guys, I am new to .NET and to this forum, I need your help to develop an application. I need to make a display area which will show a web version of autocad drawing. I am not sure what control to use to make this happen. However, it works in a web browser with the help of a plugin named "Volo Viewer" . Any idea how it can work? I will really appreciate your help. Jazz Quote
*Experts* Bucky Posted January 7, 2003 *Experts* Posted January 7, 2003 I have AutoCAD 2002 installed here, and yes, you can add the Volo View control to your form. Right-click on the toolbox, then click Customize Toolbox. Select the COM Components tab and check the box next to the "Autodesk Volo View Control" and hit OK. Now the Volo View control will be added to the toolbox and you can draw it on the form. When distributing this app, you'll need to also distribute this control, or have the user install Volo View first (which will probably install the control).

Creative2 Posted January 7, 2003 Author Posted January 7, 2003 Thanx Bucky, You know how to use this control, like how to open an drawing within this control?? Quote
*Experts* Bucky Posted January 7, 2003 *Experts* Posted January 7, 2003 I've never worked with it, but here is a link to Autodesk's site that tells how to use it. Keep in mind the code is VB6 (since ActiveX controls are designed for that), but you should be able to get the gist of how to use it. http://www.autodesk.com/prods/volo/custguid/usevb.htm Quote "Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up These are the best days of our lives" -The Ataris, In This Diary
