dwg_preview question

[chauhuh]

Is it possible to have an interactive dwg_preview window where a user can actually select objects in the window?

I want to be able to select an object from the window, grab its layername, and then change the current layer in the open drawing. Possible?

Thanks.

Sure, it's possible, but probably not very practical because you have to write all the code yourself. Maybe it wouldn't be too bad if you only have a few known objects at fixed locations, but regardless, it's no simple task to handle user interactivity for entity selection.

Thanks Owen. I'll try a simpler route then.
