AutoCAD LT :: Total The Length Of Multiple Lines?
Nov 5, 2013I have a large group of lines that I want to get a total length of. Right now the only way that I know how to do this is to highlight them all and use the list command but then I have to go through the text box and write down each line length and then add them up. This is fine if I have only a few lines but when you get into the hundreds or thousands it becomes a monster task.
I tried copying the text box data into a Word document, removing all of the text except for the line lengths and then dumping that into Excel to calculate. This works ok for a hand full of lines but is not really practical.
I know that there are LSP routines that can do this in the full version of AutoCad but LSP is not supported in AutoCad LT.
Is there a way to automate this process in LT?
Or maybe extracting just the length data from a line to a text file where I can send it to Excel and use Excel to add up the lengths?

Jun 7, 2013I use my parts list to generate a total length in inches of the same part that is used in several places in my assemblies. I then export it to excel, convert it to feet, etc. I've been doing this for some time now and it works great. The problem I am now having is I forgot how I got this magic to happen and I need to set another part to appear with it's total length in the list. From what I remember I set the QTY column in the parts list to show the length of the part and then I set the parts list to merge the same parts. For the life of me I can't remember how I did this. How this is done correctly?
All of the parts are created by the frame generator if this matters.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Calculate Total Length Of Multiple Doors On Single Machine
Apr 26, 2013I use flat piano hinges on doors for many of the machines we build. I would like to be able to calculate the total length of multiple doors on a single machine. We buy these hinges so it needs to go on a buy out parts list.
So here is my problem:
To make it a useable hinge I build an assembly from two hinge halves.
This allows me to check for interference within the machine when the door gets opened.
I set the BOM structure of the assembly to purchased so it shows up on my buy out list.
Both halves of the hinge are set to normal.
There are hinges of different lengths on the same machine.
I can link a parameter of one of the halves to the assembly to show length of the hinge but I cannot set the BOM base qty on the assembly to that parameter so Inventor can add up the lengths.
When I group the items in a buyout parts list the result is "0." The individual assemblies show the correct length because I use the "length" parameter that is linked for the QTY in the parts list. But I cant "add" the lengths and have a total whe I group them.
I need to have mixed units in this list. Some things are bought as Each and these hinges are bought in length.

Jan 21, 2013I have a feeling this goes way back to the first release of INV we had (release 14?). Basically the merged FG member length seems to be calculated using the member centre line instead of real lengths. See the attached Pack-N-Go.
The view on the left is a Merged FG member. The view in the middle is individual FG members based on a line of symmetry in the same sketch. Both are placed using the mid point option in the FG dialogue. The views on the right are the 3 separate members used for the middle view.
The Merged length shows 722 mm whereas adding the 3 member lengths (RH view) equals 740 mm. 18 mm short, or 2 sets of 9 mm (shown in the middle view) which represents the end cuts to the middle member in the RH view.

Jun 28, 2013Being all new and complete virgin-like, to ilogic, I would like to know wether it is possible to analyze a sketch (wenn it is being closed)?
What I want to analyze is:
Does the sketch contain a fully constrained closed loop?
Does this closed loop consist only of straight lines?
What is the total number of lines in the loop?
Next fase is:
Create an excel-sheet with the following information:
For each line in this closed loop i wish to add the length of the line, and the angle to the next line (consequently on the internal side of the loop, resulting in angles from 0 to 180 degrees).

AutoCad :: Length To Change Relative To Selected Grip
Oct 18, 2011It seems there have been a change in some system variable i ACAD2012 that changes the way a line lengthens when you use the grips.
I want the length to change relative to the selected grip not determine the total length of the line!
I'm guessing that it have something to do with polar tracking, if I turn it of the stretching works the way I want.

Oct 7, 2013I have a lot of lines that I need a length, like in attached file. At this moment I do it with a vba that put fields in all lines.
The problems:
1) fields makes drawing slow to regen or after I modify line.
2) fields not follow lines slopes and position, if I stretch or move one end point of line. Text must be in middle of line.
So I thinking use reactors .
I tried reactor but I don't have much experience in lisp and I am having problems with persistent reactors, after I close file and open again, load lisp. Reactor not continue persistent.
This is a test that I tried. Works only for one line.
(defun print-align-text ( owner reactor lst / sp ep a d )
(setq sp (vlax-curve-getstartpoint line1))
(setq ep (vlax-curve-getendpoint line1))

I have read that is better store data using XData. In VBA I tried construct class module with events, without any success.

AutoCad 2D :: Any Command That Actually Splits A Line Into 3 Equal-length Lines?
Jan 23, 2014I have a line that i would ideally like to divide into 3 equal segments. The divide command places points along the line, but I can't snap to them.
I know that I can place a block at each point which I could snap to, but is there a way of doing it without creating a block? Also is there a command that actually splits a line into 3 equal-length lines?
AutoCad :: Dimension Extension Lines Stay The Same Length When Moved
Nov 18, 2012Some times when I re open a drawing I have been working on, I start to dimension and I notice that the dimension extension lines stay the same length when I move the dimension in and out from the object being dimensioned.
Not sure why this happens, I do all my dimensions in model space, in fact I do just about everything in model and then just set it up in paper space to print.
I never change anything when I start a new drawing in my template, so not sure why it happens.
AutoCad :: Angle To Put A Line Of Specific Length Between Parallel Lines
Jun 23, 2012I am drawing a diagram to describe a mathematical word problem. Since it is easier to visualize with a drawing, I want to draw it using the given dimensions. But angles used in the diagram are unknown and are not needed for the answer to be calculated, so the only way to draw this freehand is to guess at the angle resulting in the correct distances to be off.
Here is the word problem: There are two ladders, one 40 feet and the other 30 feet, each touching the base of one of two buildings and leaning against the other building. If the ladders cross 10 feet above the ground, how far apart are the buildings?
So for my drawing, being rather simple considering what AutoCAD can do, results in this:
Can AutoCAD calculate the angle needed to place a line of a given length between two parallel lines that are a distance apart less than the length of the line to place between them, having the endpoints of this line touching the parallel lines, fitting exactly?
For the word problem, the distance between the two parallel lines is what needs to be solved and the math is quite invloved, having to find the roots or solution of a quartic equation. (I have the solution figured out to be 26.03287754 feet)
What I am afraid of is that this would require to program an AutoLISP routine to create a new command that one can call from the command line. I see it using the the measure command with relative and absolute co-ordinates. This may be far from a "beginner" question. I can do this quite easily on a peice of paper: having two parallel lines drawn, take a ruler and placing the "0" mark on one line, then adjusting the angle until the desired length just reaches the opposite parallel line. I used to use this trick quite often when drafting with pencil and paper to divide a distance into a required number of even amounts, so this can't be that difficult to do with AutoCAD!

remember the another code, such as I have d200 with total l=1000 and d250 with total l=1500, i need to count total cost such as 1000*y+1500*x
one think, diameters numbers is not only 1 or 2, it can be many different diameters.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Won't Allow To Specify Length Of A Line
Jun 13, 2013I have used AutoCad for a few years and I installed 2013 to my laptop recently.I noticed that I couldn't specify how long a line should be. When I select the line tool and specify the base point and type how long it should be i.e. 3' and a red box appears around the dimension box and the line isn't drawn. I tried not specifying a unit of length and it draws the line just fine. But for some reason it wont complete the line if I specify feet or inches.
