AutoCAD Events and Functions


AutoCAD, like other CAD systems, can also be automated through an Epicor CPQ CAD Extension.

Before you begin

  • When you create a CAD extension, the overall structure is the same regardless of which CAD platform you are automating.  However, this example is specific for AutoCAD and includes terms unique to that application. 
  • Usually, you would follow an event-driven design architecture to call some functions in the list below from one of the output builder events.  
  • The example below is not an exhaustive list of all AutoCAD functions.  For that information, consult the vendor's web site.
  • The example below is not intended to be run as-is, but rather as a possible starting point for your own AutoCAD work.
