C3D-260612-PGCOPY · Copy 23 point groups from SS_BLOCK_22X17 done

Recreates the 23 point groups read out of SS_BLOCK_22X17.dwg with their include/exclude filters (Display [SPECIFIC], _All Points and TBC excluded). Skips any that already exist.

C# payload

// Recreate the point groups copied out of SS_BLOCK_22X17.dwg, with their include/exclude
// filters. 23 groups - "Display [SPECIFIC]", "_All Points" (built in to every drawing) and
// "TBC" were excluded per the user.
//
// API verified by reflecting AeccDbMgd: PointGroupCollection.Add(name) returns the ObjectId;
// the filter lives on a StandardPointGroupQuery set via PointGroup.SetQuery().
// Skips any group that already exists rather than duplicating it, so this is safe to re-run.
// Host owns Tx; host regens after commit.
