EndOpen Event (ActiveX)

Triggered immediately after AutoCAD finishes opening an existing drawing.

Supported platforms: Windows only

Signature

VBA:

object.EndOpen(Filename)

object

Type: Application

An object expression that evaluates to a valid container object. In this case, the only valid container is the application.

Filename

Type: String

The name of the file being opened.

Remarks

The EndOpen event follows the BeginOpen event after AutoCAD completes the opening of an existing drawing.

No events will be fired while a modal dialog is being displayed.

Examples

VBA:

Public WithEvents ACADApp As AcadApplication    ' Use with Application Event Examples
Sub Example_AcadApplication_Events()
    ' This example intializes the public variable (ACADApp) which will be used
    ' to intercept AcadApplication Events
    '
    ' The VBA WithEvents statement makes it possible to intercept an generic object
    ' with the events associated with that object.
    '
    ' Before you will be able to trigger any of the AcadApplication events,
    ' you will first need to run this procedure.
    
    ' We could get the application from the ThisDocument object, but that would
    ' require having a drawing open, so we grab it from the system.
    Set ACADApp = GetObject(, "AutoCAD.Application.20")
End Sub

Private Sub ACADApp_EndOpen(ByVal FileName As String)
    ' This example intercepts an Application EndOpen event.
    '
    ' This event is triggered when AutoCAD finishes opening a drawing.
    '
    ' To trigger this example event:
    '     1) Make sure to run the example that initializes
    '     the public variable (named ACADApp) linked to this event.
    '
    '     2) Use AutoCAD to open an existing drawing and wait until the
    '     operation finishes

    ' Use the "FileName" variable to determine which drawing file is being opened
    MsgBox "A drawing was just loaded from: " & FileName
End Sub
