DXF Export VCL supports layers, colors, linestyles and other important properties. DXF Export VCL allows programmers to create DXF files as easy as possible.
There are two ways of creating DXF files:
Direct DXF export when all the elements are created step-by-step employing functions like AddLine/AddArc and so on;
AutoDXF export using Windows Metafile. All you need here is to draw an image using Windows GDI functions onto DXF Exporter's DC or make a metafile and pass it to the DXF Export VCL. DXF Exporter reads the Windows Metafile structure and makes a DXF file automatically.
Code example:
procedure TForm1.btnPaintToClick(Sender: TObject); var
E: TsgDXFExport; begin if not SaveDialog.Execute then Exit;
E := TsgDXFExport.Create; try
PaintTo(E.Canvas, 0, 0);
E.EndDraw;
E.SaveToFile(SaveDialog.FileName); finally
E.Free; end; end;
Form1 is exported to the DXF file named SaveDialog.FileName.
