AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Text Width Before Text Creation

Mar 2, 2013

I want to know is there any formula/calculation for the width of text object before creation/insertion? At now I used approximated width size via a simple .
 
(Defun GetStrWidth (str H W) (fix (*(* H W) (strlen str))));;usage: (GetStrWidth "This is a Text." 2.5 0.8);;H: TextHeight; W: width factor. 

I know that for the existed text in drawing I can use textbox command, but for the texts that has not been created, what can I do? Is there any formula/calculation depends on font name, text height and width factor?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Changing Text Color And Width Factor

Sep 28, 2013

What is the best way to change the color of two pieces of specific text in lisp? I want to change where it says (strcase ln6) & (strcase ln7) to the color of green. I tried it a couple of different ways but I'm having some trouble. First I am setting the current layer with a color of blue. I am then running the text command a couple of times. I want to run the mtext command a couple of times but I want the text to be green & I want the width factor to be .85

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Adjust Column Width To Length Of Text

Apr 27, 2012

Several times, we generate a drawing, and the text widths in the columns vary greatly.  Some have text that is ten characters long, and others have thirty-plus characters.

Is there a way to be able to select the table (or perform the command to all tables in the current layout) and have each of the columns expand to the appropriate width, that depends on the longest string of text in that column, for each column.  The problem I see, is that some tables have two columns, some have six, and of course other with any number in between.  The same is also true for the amount of rows.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Constraint Based On Attribute (text Box) Width?

Apr 17, 2012

Is there a way to constrain a few objects to an attribute text box width?  I want the background box and line to stretch, based on what is typed in that attribute box.

I know that if I make the attribute, a multi-line attribute, I can add a backgroud mask.  I don't want to take this route, because the mask boundary varies, depending on what character is typed.  Also, there is a gap between the mask and line I would like to maintain.

I tried some constraint stuff, but all I seem to be able to constrain is the insertion point of the text box, and not the width grip...

AutoCAD 2010 :: Text Line Width In Model Space

Dec 4, 2012

I need to change the text line width in model space, not the overall text width or the text line width/weight in paper space. Our mold maker wants to measure that on screen and he wants to set the text line width to 0.060”, while the overall text width fixed.

For example, the text “REMOVE FROM BOAT” is 3” wide total from first letter R to last letter T and height 0.4”. That is easy to do. The hard part is that he wants the line in each letter to be 0.060” (1.5mm) wide.  I practiced the true type text which is measurable in model space, but that is fixed with for a certain font with a certain size. I can change from one font to the other and get different thickness but cannot change the width freely to 1.5mm as requested.

AutoCad 2D :: RTF Import - Spaces Change Width Based On Width Of Columns

Jan 9, 2014

I'm having trouble with the spacing of my text when I import a .rtf file. The spaces change width based on the width of the columns. The problem does not effect all the paragraphs only select ones. If I change the width of the column the spacing of the text will fix itself. All of the text is the same text style. I have attached a copy for reference.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Change Width Of Text Box

Jan 31, 2013

I am new to CorelDRAW.  I am using it to generate scientific application notes that contain both graphics and text.  I am running into a problem where I have a negative number that is close to the end of a text line (using justified format).  CorelDRAW wants to treat the negative like a hyphen and keep the "-" on one line and then moves the number to the next line.  For example, if the phrase "...cooling to -150 C for 5 minutes..." were to wrap across a line, it would look like:

"...cooling to -

150 C for 5 minutes..."

Instead of:

"...cooling to

-150 C for 5 minutes..."

The only way I can figure out how to get past it is to change the width of the text box so the lines wrap in different places.  I have tried adding a space or two, adding hidden text (text with the same color as the background).

Illustrator :: Select New Width Tool To Change The Width

May 9, 2010

I drew a cured line with the brush tool in illustrator CS5, but when I select the new "width tool" to change the width, it doesn't work.
 
Here are my steps:
 
1. Select the paintbrush tool
2. Draw something
3. Select the "width tool"
4. Try to change the width but it won't work.
 
Since I draw with the paintbrush tool, the "width tool" can be very handy if I can get it to work.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Converting Polylines With Width And Text Into Close Polylines

Jan 2, 2014

As the above mentioned, I have a drawing drawn using polylines with width from someone. The width of the line are suppose to represent area,

To put things into prospective, here is an example:

The polyline is 10 unit long and with a width of 2 unit wide. If i explode that polyline, it will become a single polyline without width. The line are suppose to represent 10 unit long and 2 unit wide; representing an area.

My question is is there a way to change the line above directly from polyline with width to a close polyline (4 x polylines) of 10 unit long and 2 unit wide.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Change Text Style

Dec 16, 2013

I am trying to put together a LISP that changes the font of two text styles. One bing  named "Standard", and the other "WD".

This is what I have so far...

(command "STYLE" "Standard" "Romantic" "" "" "" "" "")
(setq entities (ssget "X" '((0 . "TEXT")))
len(sslength entities) count 0);

 I couldn't figure out how to select mtext and text all in one swoop, so i ran it twice 

Now, when i run this code, i get the following error "lselsetp nil".

Photoshop :: Text Replaced With Other Text

Aug 30, 2012

I just purchased CS6. I've got a document that I've been working on for several days. It has several layers of text. When I try to edit the text in a layer (layer is selected), the moment I place the curser and click, it changes all the text in the text box to a line of text that was previously in the area. It's almost as if the file doesn't see my current layer of text and sees a previous layer. I have several other layers of text that are doing the same thing, but not all of them are acting weird.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Change Table Text In One Time

Jul 21, 2012

I want to change a lot of table cell text in one time, try to explain something.

In the front of my drawings i have a view tables. in the second column stays a code that represent a location.

e.g. LVC stays for Low voltage cubicle. Now it is my intention to substitute these code to the description of code in one time and only the second column. The several descriptions are written in an .txt file, like LVC;Low voltage cubicle and on the next row LVP;Low voltage panel, and so on.

I think it is only possible with Lisp? or there are other way?

In the past i did it one by one, because mostly there where 2 or 3 tables, now i have a big project with more than 20 tables.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Change Text Style?

Feb 22, 2012

In the old versions of autoCAD I could select everything in the drawing and use the text style pull-down to select the text style I wanted all of the existing text to be and it would change it when the style was selected. Is there not a way to do this in AutoCAD 2011 without using the quick select feature in the properties dialog box?

I solved the same problem with dimensions by turning the dimension toolbar on but the text toolbar doesn't have the style as an option on it.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Scripting - How To Change Text Layer From One To Another

I've just recently learned how to use scripts to my advantage. I work for a company that uses a lot of custom details using AutoCAD and have now decided to switch them up and use different layers, fonts & styles. So far I have been able to come up with some script changing the styles of how we want the fonts to look, but I am trying to select one font style, change the layer & color of that text, then close the file.
