using plot styles
hi
i started a new thread about plot settingsa few days ago, but i'm afraid i didn't phrase it correctly. i'm sorry. i want to know how to make and use color dependent plot style. for example how can i change red lines in the model space to be printed in black color.
i've made some attempts to read a .ctb file generated by the relevant acad wizard but without success.
here is some code i used:
oddbsetpstylemode((oddbdatabase)(*m_pdrw->internaldb()),1);
testpath = "d:\\test.ctb";
oddbsystemservices* pss = odsystemservices();
if(pss->accessfile(testpath, oda::kfileread))
{
pfilebuf = pss->createfile(testpath);
}
if(pfilebuf.get())
{
odplotstyletableptr ppst = odplotstyleservices::loadplotstyletable(pfilebuf);
odrxdictionaryptr pproperties = pprinterdevice->properties();
if(pproperties->has("plotstyletable")) // check if property is supported
{
pproperties->putat("plotstyletable", ppst);
}
}
any ideas?
thanks in advance

1.11 contains api for parsing plotstyle (ctb and stb) files. see include\gs\plotstyle.h.
1.12 expected soon will contain support for use plotstyle data for rendering.

thank you george.
i have a problem with calling loadplotstyletable().
i received "error inflating buffer". i used the same code that i posted above.
could you tell me what is the reason for this error, please?
thanks
