How to know which layer to show ? #2

Hi,

I use your (awesome) library to transform a dxf file to an image in a wpf software.

I have a problem with layers : I didn't find how to know which layers to show or not.

When i use some dxf viewer it only show me some layers but not all.

Do you know how to do this ? (or if it's missing in your library ? )

Thank you

Hi @arochedy,

Finally I found a solution !

My problem was not to show/hide a layer but how to detect and hide unrelevant objects.

I use DrawingExtendsLowerRight and DrawingExtendsUpperRight properties in header section to know the limits of my drawing. I only keep elements that are in the limits.

So this is not an issue of your library ;) (sorry to disturb you) (I'll look how to delete this issue)

I got an another problem ! the libray doesn't find ellipse !

I found ellipse in dxf but the libray doesn't read them, it "jump" to the next entites.

I fix it by adding [Entity("LINE")] on DxfEllipse Class
