AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: How To Create Selection Set Of All Entities Inside Unnamed GROUP
Jan 17, 2012I am trying to create a selection set (or LIST) of all objects inside a unnamed GROUP.
I found a means to access the unnamed group, however I am having trouble creating the list.
Command: (entget (cdr (assoc 350 (dictsearch (namedobjdict) "ACAD_GROUP"))))((-1 . <Entity name: 7efe6280>) (0 . "GROUP") (5 . "130") (102 . "{ACAD_REACTORS")(330 . <Entity name: 7efe5c68>) (102 . "}") (330 . <Entity name: 7efe5c68>) (100 . "AcDbGroup") (300 . "") (70 . 1) (71 . 1) (340 . <Entity name: 7efe6268>) (340 . <Entity name: 7efe6260>))
In the example above, there are 2 entities in the group.
What I want to do is to remove a certain entity from the GROUP, then delete the entity.
Repeat until all entities of that type are removed (I can figure this part out...).
How do I create a Selection Set (or LIST) of all entities inside a GROUP?
To access the first GROUP name in the dictionary:
(cdr (assoc 3 (dictsearch (namedobjdict) "ACAD_GROUP")))
AutoCAD 2010 :: Unnamed Blocks With Lots Of Associated Garble
Sep 25, 2013Somehow, every time we copy/paste from certain drawings, it brings in 9000+ unnamed blocks. Buried in these blocks are several thousand extraneous linetypes, etc. The blocks do not appear to contain any actual drawing objects, and are virtually unselectable. But the drawing size increases exponentially. Once a drawing is “infected” any item that is copied from it “infects” any drawing that the copied item is pasted into. Needless to say, this creates very large, slow files that are practically unusable. We have relied on copy/paste for notes, details, etc. and only recently started seeing this crop up.
Purge does not get rid of the blocks. We have tried a map query, which seems to ditch the extraneous stuff. But we lose our C3D object intelligence, and that process is far too cumbersome to run on all our drawings. We have tried the following lisp code that I found related somewhat to this topic a while back:
(vlax-for n (vla-get-blocks
(vla-get-activedocument
(vlax-get-acad-object)))
(vl-catch-all-apply 'vla-delete (list n)))
(princ))
Problem is, it deletes blocks C3D seems to need, so again the drawings are rendered basically useless. how to clean the drawings up and or stop the spread of “the plague”
I tried to attach a "blank" drawing that demonstrates the issue. I literally pasted a single line into it, and it is over 9MB, so it would not attach....

I know that it is possible to rotate text in many ways but the styles always seem to be set on the horizontal to begin with.

Jun 12, 2013I have been working in AutoCAD for a number of years but up until now I have been working with already created tables and spreadsheets. I need to create a new one; however my boss is very against using Excel or the AutoCAD table and importing the information. What he would like to see is a screen that pops up with a number of lines of information that can be filled in. Then just creating a grid around it with lines. I feel like I have used something similar in the past but don’t know what it is called or how to create it.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Group Lock - Hotkeys
Sep 26, 2012My workstation had a major reset and my customization (retrofit) making my group lock key-combo [Ctrl+Shift+A] as it had been some time in the past is lost. It has been so long since I meddled with setting hotkeys that I cannot remember where that is done. I either need to know how to toggle the group lock in the "out of the box 2012" or where to set my hotkey prefs.
It is said that a fool's voice is known by multitude of words... I'm just writing this stuff instead of saying it outloud... that's my loophole.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Search A Group Of Drawings For A Block?
Feb 16, 2012I have been given a set of drawings (300+) and I need to find where and/or if certain blocks (and other objects) are used in these drawings. Is there a utility program or does AutoCAD have the ability to search a group of drawings for a block (by name) and return a list of all the drawings where the block is found.
On that same topic, is there a utility program that will export all the CAD data from a list of drawings to a .csv file or even excel so I can filter and search several drawings for layers, blocks, xrefs etc.
AutoCAD 2010 :: Tool Palette - Group Names?
May 12, 2012I have created multiple tool palettes that i load depending on whether im working on a rcp plan or a toilet room plan, etc. On the right hand side it says Tool Palettes - All Palettes. How to rename that to say rcp,civil, etc? If I right click on the right side of the tool palette & select rename it renames all tool palettes to whatever I type in. I thought it might be tool palette groups but I am not sure. I can't seem to set one to be current. The selection is grayed out

Dec 1, 2011I had started a new drawing on our template and worked on it for an hour or so. I had not saved it or anything so it was simply titled "Drawing2.dwg."

I've had this happen before...is there ANYTHING that can be done or did I just lose all my work?

Feb 21, 2013I am running AutoCAD 2010 full version. Every time I select a line or a group of lines or objects. My program freezes up for a couple of seconds each time, to scan the drawing. So a task that should take 10-15 minute is turning into 25-30 minutes nightmare. Every selection I make there will appear a progress bar and the words "Scanning the drawings..." in the bottom left hand corner of the screen. Is there some setting somewhere i can turn this scanning feature off? Is this issue linked to the layer states?

Dec 17, 2012I drew a solid model of a structure in Autocad 2010. By using that model, I want to make a FEM analysis in Sap2000. The problem is that Sap2000 takes only polygon meshes (not solids) in 3d. The question is that how can i make a group of polygon meshes of the solid model that represents the structure.
(Since i am not an expert of Autocad, i will be glad if the solution is explained in a simple language.)

AutoCAD 2010 :: Macro To Create Layers And Place Text In The Layers?

Jul 9, 2011Is there an easy way that I am missing to create lines around a group? For example, when I want a rectangle with rounded corners on only one side, I usually just make 2 separate rectangles, one with rounded corners, one square, then group them together. However, when you put a line around it it also makes a lines where the two meet each other. I have always worked around it by adding another square rectangle between the 2 with no lines, to cover up the lines. Am I missing something obvious?
