Merry Christmas!
During the general wind-down before Autodesk’s annual “week of rest”, I’ve been spending some time this week getting more of my AutoCAD-Kinect integration samples working with the pre-release Kinect for Windows 2.0 device and SDK. Things are actually working pretty well: all samples – barring th...
Any update to the invalid type cast error?

TaskDialog with progress bar
By Adam Nagy I found the ShowProgressBar property of TaskDialog, but it's not clear how I could make use of it. Any samples? Solution You need to assign a callback function to the TaskDialog that can be called continously so you can do parts of the lengthy process you want to show a progress bar...

Visual Studio 2012 – First Impressions
By Stephen Preston I’m a little late to the game here. I know using VS2012 for AutoCAD .NET development is being discussed on various forums. But hey - Its Friday afternoon and I have a few minutes left before the weekend starts, so take this blog post for what it is – a displacement activity . ...
Don't forget about dotPeek:

Also, I believe the Plant 3D .net modules are obfuscated.

A rich source of AutoCAD .NET sample code
By Stephen Preston One of the top requests whenever we survey programmers on their needs is “more sample code”. And I agree this is important – its what I want too when I’m learning an API. One oft overlooked source of sample code is AutoCAD itself. We don’t obfuscate our .NET code, and so the A...
We've been using Intelliprotector. It's cheaper than Infran, does some encryption and does activation over the internet automatically on Intelliprotector's site.

I've been using SmartAssembly for obfuscation. While it's more expensive than Crypto, it's really easy to use with a lot of powerful features.

Licensing applications: Infralution
By Augusto Goncalves This series of articles will show how to use tools available on the market to control licensing of plug-ins for Autodesk products. This is important to most commercial developers and if you are developing for the Autodesk Exchange Store, you noticed that no license system is...
Found it. PnPCommonDbxMgd.dll.

I think you also have to monitor the Profile changing. For example, if a user changes the profile via the options command, I don't believe the WSCURRENT setting notifies that the workspace has changed.

Monitor workspace change
By Adam Nagy If you need to monitor the workspace change, e.g. so that you can update the Ribbon with the controls you placed using the Ribbon Runtime API, then you can listen to the system variable changed event, and watch out for WSCURRENT using System; using Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime; using...
Thanks for the tip on Depends!

Retrieving nested entities under cursor aperture using .Net API
By Philippe Leefsma I was asked this useful question by an ADN member a while ago, being able to retrieve in real time the entities under the cursor aperture, as the user is moving the mouse pointer. If the question is not the most challenging, looking for retrieving as well nested entities, l...
I noticed you used "acad.exe" in the PInvoke.
With 2013, we seem to be changing to use the AcCore.dll for PInvoke for some commands. How do you know when to use "acad.exe" and "AcCore.dll" (other than trial and error)?

I'm a big Chrome fan too. I can't wait for an updated way to view dwfs/nwds on a mobile/web platform myself. Great to have you join the blogosphere.
