   out Dictionary<string,Dictionary<object,HashSet<string>>> sharedItems
)

Parameters

log

The log file containing details about shared items.

sharedItems

The dictionary containing the shared items.

Listed below are the element types you can find in it

- Layer: items that belong to the devDept.Eyeshot.ViewportLayout.Layers collection.

- Block: items that belong to the devDept.Eyeshot.ViewportLayout.Blocks collection.

- Material: items that belong to the devDept.Eyeshot.ViewportLayout.Materials collection.

- TextStyle: items that belong to the devDept.Eyeshot.ViewportLayout.TextStyles collection.

- LinePattern: items that belong to the devDept.Eyeshot.ViewportLayout.LineTypes collection.

- Entity: items that belong to the devDept.Eyeshot.ViewportLayout.Entities collection.

- BlockEntity: items that belong to the devDept.Eyeshot.Block.Entities collection.

- BlockEntity+Entity: items that belong both to the devDept.Eyeshot.Block.Entities and to the devDept.Eyeshot.ViewportLayout.Entities collections.

Return Value

True when no instances are shared between different ViewportLayouts, otherwise false.

Remarks

You can't share objects (i.e. devDept.Eyeshot.Entities.Entity, devDept.Eyeshot.Block, devDept.Graphics.Material, etc.) between different ViewportLayouts, but you need to clone them before adding to another ViewportLayout. If you get wrong display results or artifacts, you can use this method to check out shared elements.
