Hello

I need to make a join between a geometry (polygon) from a block (DWG File), and the insertion point of this geometry :

 

How can I do this ?

Is there a unique common Identifiant betwen insertion point and geometry, for a block object ?

 

I need to do this because I have to put the autocad_entity_handle of the insert point in the geometry (polygon) attribute (because autocad_entity_handle is not a unique ID for the polygon from the block).

 

I used the "Preserve Insert Point" in DWG Reader Options :

 

Thank you.

Hi @arxit,

The format attribute autocad_block_number can be used to link the exploded block components to the insertion point. This value is unique for each block insertion.
