AutoCAD .NET :: Extract X / Y Coordinates Of Points In Selection Set

Dec 20, 2011

I am busy writing a small app to find a best fit circle through a series of points that roughly follow the profile of an arc. This data was scanned in using a Farro arm and imported to AutoCAD.

I would like to use VB.Express and the AutoCAD API. So far I have managed to write some code (loosely based on some examples from the AutoCAD .NET Developer's Guide) to allow the user to select the points to process.

I have three questions around this issue:

a.) How can I set up a selection filter to limited the user's input to 2d points only?
b.) Once I have the selection set of points, how can I extract the "X" and "Y" values of each of the points to be able to process further?
c.) Is there some sort of Object model diagram for the AutoCAD API that I can download, or any (downloadable) literature to get started with the API and VB.Express. I have looked online for some books and Amazon list them, but a. they are in hardcopy format and b.) the most recommended one (i.e. VB.NET Programming for AutoCAD Customization - Level 1 Jeremy Winters) is out of print. I am specifically looking for downloadable books because of the delivery times and shipping costs to get a hard copy.

AutoCad :: Unable To See Coordinates / Input Bar When Draw Object

Aug 16, 2011

I just stated using AutoCAD 2006 this summer as an intern for an engineering department. The program has become pretty easy to use and I thought i was getting the hang of it.

All of a sudden, when i draw a line, circle, or another shape, i can't see the input bar that floats at the end of the line.

What im talking about is the small display that always sticks to the end of the object your drawing. It displays the angle the line is drawn at, you can see what measurement you're typing in.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Extract Text To Excel File Or Find MEAN Value Of Text

Jul 6, 2012

I have a drawing which has hundreds of levels on and i'm trying to establish what the MEAN level is and the AVERAGE level.  I thought the best way might be to extract the text to excel and perform it there but at the moment the only way i can do it is to copy and paste the text and its taking me forever.  Is there a way to either a) extract text to excel or b) calculate a MEAN value based on texted selected?

AutoCad :: Extract X And Y Coordinates On A Drawing?

Apr 4, 2012

I have to tabulate the X and Y co-ordinates along a polyline at 1 metre intervals. I have divided the polyline into segments of one metre and have tried to use a command called data extraction. So I use this command and individually click on each point. The end result gives me the X and Y coordinates in the order I have picked them however when I put it into a table on the drawing it messes up the order?

AutoCAD 2010 :: Extract Coordinates To A Spreadsheet?

Jun 11, 2013

Is it possible to extract coordinates to a spreadsheet or display them on screen of points in AutoCad. I would like to know the coordinates of all the intersections of the lines in the model shown in the attached pdf. The 3d model was drawn in Revit as model lines. If there is a simple way to draw this shape in AutoCad, it is part of a torus.I imported it into AutoCad as Revit had a few limitations.

AutoCAD Inventor :: X / Y And Z Coordinates Out To Text File From Part

Feb 22, 2012

Is it possible to pull out the x,y,z coordinates to text file from a inventor part. I am aware about this that it maybe need some programming but what kind of programming Language is the best to use ? is it possible to use the build in programming Language called Ilogic? Or is it better to use some .net? At my work we use PDMS to do plant modelling and we want to use inventor for modelling the machines and doing the workshop drawings ect. And we want to be able to take the inventor part coordinates and transfer them to PDMS because it can model the machines just by coordinates taken from a text fil.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Read Excel File To Insert Text Values At Coordinates

Mar 6, 2013

I got a new work and get it done in the next 2 days, but first I need to do this... from a text file (or excel file, I got both) I got 3 columns, 1 one for node number, and 2 other for X and Y coordinates for each node.

So from that file I need to insert into autocad the node numbers as text (using the current style and height) at the point specified by the other two columns, that are the X,Y coordinates which will be the insertion point of text..

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Get Coordinates To All Points In Full List

Jan 29, 2013

I have been using the "LIST" command to get coordinates of a point. The list can be as long as my monitor is high. I need to copy the coordinates of about 3 000 points to a Microsoft Word file to manipulate with them.

The "LIST" command would show me about 4 points after which i have to press "ENTER" to get the next ones, but this is obviously pointless. How could i get the coordinates of very many points to a text file all at once?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Manually Input Points Of XYZ Coordinates

Jul 23, 2013

I have the following 8 points of XYZ-coordinates:

Location SampleID X Y Z Depth Elevation FGACDC-SS01 FGACDC-SS01-S1 -77.055876 39.00845 314.5 0.5 315 FGACDC-SS01 FGACDC-SS01-S2 -77.055876 39.00845 297 18 315 FGACDC-SS02 FGACDC-SS02-S1 -77.055886 39.008643 319.5 0.5 320 FGACDC-SS02 FGACDC-SS02-S2 -77.055886 39.008643 302 18 320 FGACDC-SS03 FGACDC-SS03-S1 -77.056203 39.008736 311.5 0.5 312 FGACDC-SS03 FGACDC-SS03-S2 -77.056203 39.008736 294 18 312 FGACDC-SS04 FGACDC-SS04-S1 -77.056203 39.008491 304.5 0.5 305 FGACDC-SS04 FGACDC-SS04-S2 -77.056203 39.008491 287 18 305

 These 8 points are for 4 sampling locations with 2 depths for each sampling location. I used AutoCAD 2012 a little bit before and I am new in using AutoCAD Civil 3D 2013. What are the key steps and tips of using the values of XYZ-coordinates listed the above-mentioned table to input manually into the AutoCAD Civil 3D 2013 program. Note: 4 sampling locations are in the 4 corners of a square lot and the 8 points should look like 8 corners of a box.

AutoCad :: Block With Coordinates - Read Points In Drawing?

May 13, 2011

I'm trying to make a standard block which will automatically read the co-ordinates! i have started making it trying to use fields, but when inserting the block into the drawing it stays at x=0, y=0, which is the point in the block. how do i get it to read the point in the drawing, and also how would i always get it to read the world ucs.

i have attached the block i've started, haven't added any dynamics yet as i'm just testing it.

AutoCad 2D :: Draw Multiple Closed Polylines From One List Of Coordinates In Excel

Sep 22, 2011

I'm trying to create about 150 cross-sections, each consisting of 9 closed polylines of which I have created the coordinates. My issue is making the list of coordinates create separate polylines instead of one enormous polyline. Any way to setup the columns, perhaps with blank rows, some way of applying ASCII code, etc. to automatically break up these polylines? (even if they aren't closed that's fine, I just need to make the polylines separate.)

AutoCad :: Interpolating Coordinates From Poly Line Other Than Input Points

Jan 17, 2012

I have coordinates for an aerofoil which I put into Autocad and plotted using pline. I have 52 points, what I want is to have more points on the aerofoil, i.e interpolate. I can probably create more points by averaging two adjacent y-points and two adjacent x-points but it would be much better if Autocad did this

the LIST command only gives the points i put in the program.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Export 7 Million Points To Text File

Jun 21, 2012

i need to export 7 million points from a tin surface to text file with only NEZ in comma delimited format for Surfer 9 software. right now i have the civil 3d surface. but the export to csv stock reporting tool sucks. why the hell do you open the file and why leave an empty row between data points? so it's not usable.

also i have 12gb ram at work and it can't export surface points to autocad format ran out of memory. this is with surface display showing points and just the "dot" style so it's autocad points after export. i was originally planning on using "dataextraction" command in autocad to export to csv. worked on a small batch of file. so i think may work for the bigger file. but i would never know because i can't even get the points into autocad.

also yeah i would love to simplify the surface but it's so buggy that you asked it to remove 80% of the points it only remove 100k points at most out of 7 million. so not usable.

last resort is i can program something in vb.net but not much motivation on doing so.
