a spider crawling mainly in the .NET of AutoCAD
Interests: It is a spider crawling mainly in the .NET of AutoCAD. Sometimes, it may crawl a little deeper down into the Microsoft .NET world as well to find something good and fast there to digest.

It addresses transforming a picked point from the current UCS to the WCS, which looks a simple and obvious AutoCAD .NET programming task but still can be easily missed out or done in a ridiculous complex way. Continue reading

It emphasizes again that AcadNetAddinWizard can help launch AutoCAD, open a test drawing, and run a command automatically and properly. That makes AutoCAD .NET un-loader, which might be possible to be created using AppDomains as suggested somewhere, not necessary anymore. Continue reading

The AcadNetAddinWizard tried its best to support both Visual Studio 2008 and 2010, both full fledge and Express as mentioned in many posts, but as you found out, the VSE does not support third party toolbars at all and that caused our widgets and coders not get a chance to show up or be exercised.

Ah, did not realize you were using Visual Studio 2010 Express. I believe the VSE intentionaly prevents the AcadNetAddinWizard toolbars and all other third party ones from being loaded properly and showing up. That should be what the 'Express' indicates. Cannot think of a better way other than switching to the full fledge Visual Stuio so as to utilize all the cool features of AutoCAD .NET Addin Wizard.
Please right click mouse on the Visual Studio toolbar and you will find the AutoCAD .NET Addin Wizard item. Checking it will make the toolbar show up. In terms of the same item in the Tools menu, it was provided before but now it is not supported anymore.
