CTB instead of STB

[thaiguer]

Hello.
I created some files with AcadSharp library.

The default plot configuration is done with .STB files.
How can I change the code to create files that use .CTB files?

Hi @thaiguer,

Here is what I found:

https://help.autodesk.com/view/ACD/2025/ENU/?guid=GUID-3A68A211-1E6C-4A71-8503-62722A1155A6

The interesting part is:

When you convert a drawing, CONVERTPSTYLES sets the PSTYLEMODE system variable to the appropriate setting (0 = named, 1= color-dependent).

In ACadSharp the variable PSTYLEMODE is in the header, CadDocument.Header.PlotStyleMode, by default is set to 0, you only need to change it to 1.

I'll open a PR to add an enum to make it easier.

Hope this helps.

Perfect. Thanks.

CadDocument newDoc = new CadDocument();
newDoc.Header.PlotStyleMode = 1;
