Hello Adnan (@Adnan.Ahmad) ,

Thanks for your input.

Our requirement is to Read the custom properties from Autocad file and set some value on it as per business logic.

We could not get the custom properties. So we have tried to get Default properties, using below code, still we are getting null value for below code as well:

com.aspose.cad.system.collections.Generic.List header1 = cadImage.getHeader().getHeaderProperties().get(CadHeaderAttribute.LASTSAVEDBY);

Please check the above code snippet and let us know the correct way to achieve the requirement.

Regards,
Sourav

Thanks for your response.

We have requirement to update the value of Custom Properties of AutoCad Files (.dwg).

I am attaching the AutoCad file (10000763.dwg) which has some custom properties like: DESCRIPTION_LINE_1, DESCRIPTION_LINE_2, SCALE, WEIGHT, DOCUMENT_NO (I am attaching the screenshot of the custom properties as well).

Using Aspose.CAD Java API, we need set the value of these custom properties. Could please let share some code snippet / java methods to achieve this.
