Defining external reference paths

 

The vector file formats CADRA, DGN, and DWG/DXF and the text file format RTF allow external references to other files of those types. You can assign a search path for each of these file formats. All DXF-format and DWG-format files use the same external reference path. Therefore, you can use any DXF or DWG formatID to define directory paths for the whole group.

To set the directories where Imagenation looks for external reference files:

· Use the SetXRefPath transaction. Separate each directory path with a semicolon (;).

Imagenation searches the specified directories when appropriate. You can also use GetXRefPath(formatID) to find out the directories that are currently specified.
