I am trying to figure out the dxf codes so I can select and control polygonal viewports.
Problem is that I am not too sure how they are different. I haven't really figured out too much, just that the polygonal viewport does not have a dxf group type as "viewport".
It also seems to be recognized as 2 objects in the properties palette when I select it with a left-click. From my experience, this is the only entity in AutoCAD that behaves with a 1-click-select-2 function.
Doing an entget on a regular viewport, this is the return..
((-1 . <Entity name: -4014fc50>) (0 . "VIEWPORT") (5 . "1B6") (102 . "{ACAD_XDICTIONARY") (360 . <Entity name: -4014fc48>) (102 . "}") (330 . <Entity name: -40151130>) (100 .

Both viewports are from coordinates (0,0) to (1000,500).
I kinda hate asking these questions, but it seems the Developer Documentation in help only tells me so much... :?
I have been using this list (http://www.jefferypsanders.com/autolispintr_dxftbl.html).
Is there a more extensive list so hopefully I can ask dumb questions less?
thank you so much....
