Function Entry: DIMXTILE
Name
`dimxtile`
Class
DCL Function
Syntax
(dimx_tile key)
Arguments and Values
key: case-sensitive string; the tile to measure.
Description
Returns the X dimension of a tile, expressed in absolute tile coordinates. Designed for use with image-tile functions (`vectorimage, fillimage, slideimage`) that need absolute pixel coordinates. The returned value is one less than the total X dimension because coordinates are zero-based; it is therefore the maximum allowed X coordinate.
Return Values
An integer.
Side Effects
None.
Examples
- `(setq tilewidth (dimxtile "mytile"))`.
Availability
- AutoCAD 2026: documented.
