Unable to access layers in DWG file using aspose-cad for python

[ellkrauze]

Description

I am currently working with aspose-cad for python to process a DWG file. I need to iterate through the layers of the DWG file, but I’m encountering an issue where the Image object doesn’t seem to have a layers attribute, even after loading to CadImage it is still an Image object. Here’s the code I’m using:

from aspose.cad.fileformats.cad import CadImage

cad_image = CadImage.load("test.dwg")
cad_image.layers

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
AttributeError                            Traceback (most recent call last)
Cell In[14], line 1
----> 1 cad_image.layers

AttributeError: 'aspose.cad.Image' object has no attribute 'layers'

Expected Behavior

I expected to be able to iterate over the layers in the DWG file, as shown in the documentation, by accessing cad_image.layers.
(https://reference.aspose.com/cad/python-net/aspose.cad.fileformats.cad/cadimage/)

Actual Behavior

An AttributeError occurs when trying to access layers from the CadImage object.

Additional Information

•	Python Version: 3.10.12
•	Aspose.CAD for Python via .NET Version: 24.7.0

Could you please provide guidance on how to correctly access the layers in a DWG file or let me know if there’s something missing in the current implementation?

Thanks in advance!

@ellkrauze,
Hi,
please test if this is helpful:

import aspose.cad as cad
from aspose.pycore import cast

image = cad.Image.load("building.dwg")
cad_image = cast(cad.fileformats.cad.CadImage, image)

print(cad_image.layers)
for layer in cad_image.layers:
    print(layer.name)
