<h1>Insert Point Example (C#)</h1>
<p>This example shows how to insert a point in a drawing document.</p>
<pre>//--------------------------------------------------------------
// Preconditions:
// 1. Create a C# Windows console project.
// 2. Copy and paste this example into the C# IDE.
// 3. Add a reference to:
// <i>install_dir</i>\<b>APISDK\tlb\DraftSight.Interop.dsAutomation.dll</b>.
// 4. Add references to <b>System</b> and <b>System.Windows.Forms</b>.
// 5. Start DraftSight and open a document.
// 6. Start debugging the project.
//
// Postconditions: A message box pops up when a point is
// inserted in the drawing document. A SimpleNote is also
// added to the drawing that identifies where the point was inserted.
