can we change xref attach to overlay yet with a program?

Just checking if some c guru knows how to change the xref attachment type programatically
Does the new .net help?.

I believe someone posted an example of this a few day's ago.

Sorry, I don't know the time or day James.

 

well its not in the activex object model yet, and setting the block object's group 70 so that the 8 bit flag is 1 does
not work.
Here is the code that does not work:

(SETQ BLOCK-TBL-OBJ (SUBST (CONS 70 (+ 70-VAL 8)) (ASSOC 70 BLOCK-TBL-OBJ) BLOCK-TBL-OBJ))
(ENTMOD BLOCK-TBL-OBJ)
(ENTUPD BLOCK-TBL-NAME)

assume the BLOCK-TBL-OBJ ia an entget of the item from a tblobjname call.
The numbers and variables are all correct, but no dice with the entmod...
Its another hidden property that entmod does not work on...

maybe a good c programmer can get around the object model.
I think autodesk underestimated how important that property is for large engineering projects.
