BlockRecords["MyBlock"].Clone();

[CCvallecano]

Good afternoon, I have inserted your library with a nuget package. I am trying to insert a block from an external file with this code:
const string _file = "../../../LibraryBlock/Block/133499.dwg";
CadDocument docToRead;
BlockRecord block;
CadDocument transfer = new CadDocument();
using (DwgReader reader = new DwgReader(_file))
{
docToRead = reader.Read();

}

block = (BlockRecord)docToRead.BlockRecords["MyBlock"].Clone();
transfer.BlockRecords.Add(block);

But it gives me this error

System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: 'The given key was not present in the dictionary.'

I saw that there was a bug already fixed

Hi @CCvallecano,

I don't quite understand the question, but seeing at the exception I think that the issue is that the block with the name "MyBlock" doesn't exist in the file, can you confirm that?

[CCvallecano]

Most likely it's me
I want to create a .dwg (Mydwg.dwg) and insert into the other .dwg ("../../../LibraryBlock/Block/133499.dwg") at a certain point and with a rotation

BlockRecord record2 = new BlockRecord("100009x-2");
CreateDoc.BlockRecords.Add(record2);
const string _file = "../../../LibraryBlock/Block/133499.dwg";
CadDocument docToRead;
BlockRecord block;
CadDocument transfer = new CadDocument();
using (DwgReader reader = new DwgReader(_file))
{
docToRead = reader.Read();

}

block = (BlockRecord)docToRead.BlockRecords["100009x-2"].Clone();
transfer.BlockRecords.Add(block);

I created the block but I have the same problem

[DomCR]

You've created the block in another document, CreateDoc, the one that you are reading doesn't seem to contain the block "100009x-2".

You can use the method BlockRecords.TryGetValue() to check if the Table contains that block without triggering the exception.

Also it may help you to log all the blocks in the table to see what the file contains.

Thank you very much, I understand it now and it works. I thought we could insert a dwg into our new drawing. I will create the block inside another block. I love the library. Thank you very much.

One more question, the 3D solids in the cloned block are not cloned. Am I doing something wrong?

[DomCR]

3D solids are not implemented yet, here is the PR meant to fix it:
