layer states
acad_layerstates
hi,
any idea how to read and write the layerstates into the dwg using dwgdirect 1.12?
dxf 2004/5 saves it as:
dictionary
5
93
330
2
100
acdbdictionary
280
1
281
1
3
acad_layerfilters
360
99
3
acad_layerstates
360
96
3
aclydictionary
360
98
is creating the dictionay "acad_layerstates" and putting in it the
layers list that are on will do it? any other information?
is "acad_layerstates" the accepted name in dwg?
is it supported by dwgdirect, so we can read it later?
thank you in advance,
salleh

currently dd has no support for layer states. actually as you noticed they are stored in extension dictionary of layer table. untill layer state support is implemented in dd you can access them via extension dictionary and xrecords it contains.

where can i learn about the meaning of subsequend int32 and int16 in xrecord ? i can see them in odamfc for some files, but i have no idea which of them stands for off flag, frozen flag etc.

this requires some reverse-engineering we have not done yet. we plan to include layer states api in next release.
