Common Group Codes for Objects (DXF)

The following table shows group codes that apply to virtually all nongraphical objects. When you refer to a table of group codes by object type, a list of codes associated with a specific object, keep in mind that the codes shown here can also be present. Some of the group codes are included with an object only if the object has nondefault values for those group code properties.
