exploding entities
exploding entities
hi,
is there a way to convert complex entities to simple primitives (lines, solids, arcs) without specifing a view(port)? first i thought that the oddbentity::explode(...) function will fit my needs, but for some entities this function doesn't work ( oddbfcf, oddbface, oddbtrace, etc. ) or the exploded entities don't look like the original entity (thick polylines).
i know that dwgdirect can handle/draw these entities, but, like in the odamfcapp example, a view has to be specified first. since i don't want to draw the entities on the srceen i am looking for a method to get their primitives in world coordinates.
thanks for help,
torsten
