Hi, I have a program that lets the user create a new page, by cloning a selected page and placing it at the desired layout order (taborder). For example, the user could copy layout 4 as layout 3 and then there are options for changing the layers that are visible.
The problem I'm running into is when a user enters new page = 3, by copying the current layout 3. What I want is to have the new layout placed at taborder 3, and the rest moved to the right.
It gives me an error, though, saying I'm using the same taborder.
' This will copy the selected layout and call it the new page. Public Sub addPage(ByVal pageNumber As Integer, ByVal pageToCopy As Integer) Dim myDWG As ApplicationServices.Document Dim myDB As DatabaseServices.Database Dim myTransMan As DatabaseServices.TransactionManager Dim myTrans As DatabaseServices.Transaction myDWG = ApplicationServices.Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument myDB = myDWG.Database myTransMan = myDWG.TransactionManager myTrans = myTransMan.StartTransaction Dim myBT As DatabaseServices.BlockTable Dim myBTR As DatabaseServices.BlockTableRecord Dim myBTRE As DatabaseServices.SymbolTableEnumerator Dim myLM As DatabaseServices.LayoutManager Dim myLayout As DatabaseServices.Layout Dim layoutToCopy As String myBT = myDB.BlockTableId.GetObject(DatabaseServices.OpenMode.ForWrite) myBTRE = myBT.GetEnumerator myLM = DatabaseServices.LayoutManager.Current ' Copies the selected layout to the new layout While myBTRE.MoveNext myBTR = myBTRE.Current.GetObject(DatabaseServices.OpenMode.ForRead) If myBTR.IsLayout Then myLayout = myBTR.LayoutId.GetObject(DatabaseServices.OpenMode.ForRead) ' If the layout is the selected layout to copy If myLayout.TabOrder = pageToCopy Then layoutToCopy = (myLayout.LayoutName) ' Copys the selected layout and puts it in the desired layout location myLM.CloneLayout(layoutToCopy, "newpage", pageNumber) End If End If End While myTrans.Commit() myDWG.Editor.Regen() myTrans.Dispose() End Sub
I thought, maybe I could put the new layout at the end, and then just change its taborder, but all that did was overwrite the current layout 3 with the new layout.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
