AutoCAD .NET :: Draw Triangle In Segment Of Polyline In Segment Direction

Sep 9, 2012

I want to draw triangle in segment of polyline in segment direction.

I have target segment and center point of it:

  Polyline line = ...
  LineSegment3d centerSegment = line.GetLineSegmentAt(centerSegmentIndex);
  Point3d centerPosition = centerSegment.MidPoint;

I can find direction of this segment:

  Vector3d zaDirection = line.GetLineSegmentAt(centerSegmentIndex).Direction;

Next, I create list of points:

  List<Point3d> points = new List<Point3d>();
  points.Add(centerPosition);
  points.Add(centerPosition.Add(new Vector3d(ZASize, +ZASize, 0)));
  points.Add(centerPosition.Add(new Vector3d(ZASize, -ZASize, 0)));

And draw it:

wd.Geometry.Polygon(new Point3dCollection(points.ToArray()));

Ok, I have triangle but... it's not in segment direction, it's X-direction.

I try to rotate it:

points.Add(centerPosition.Add(new Vector3d(ZASize, +ZASize, 0)).RotateBy(0, zaDirection, centerPosition));

But it's not the same as I want.

How I can draw triangle by serment direction?

AutoCAD .NET :: Get Polyline Segment Lengths

Aug 31, 2011

I am basically looking for a way to get the length of each polylie segment in the overall polyline.  Not the total length.

I then need to comapre these lengths.  I guess I could do some math to get the values of the verticies, but is there a built in method to do this? how to get started?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Vertices Of A Polyline Segment

Dec 18, 2011

I have to intersect polylines "POLYLINE" and "LWPOLINE" with a line and get all the angles of all segments of the polyline that are intersected.

To do this I used a loop that monitors all the vertices of each polyline to find the two vertices of the polyline segment that intersects the line. Unfortunately, these polylines have thousands of vertices and the processing done in this way takes too long.

With the vlax-curve-getClosestPointTo I could very quickly find the vertex of the polyline closest to that intersected with the line, but I need to find the other vertex of the polyline segment to determine the angle of this.

Another question: is there a quick function that returns the exact point of intersection of two curves (e.g. A line and a polyline, or a line and a circle?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Angle Of Polyline Segment At Specified Point

Mar 19, 2013

I am writing a routine that will place a piece of text at a specified point along a polyline. My problem is to determine the angle for the text. It needs to be the same as the segment of the polyline that it falls on. Just can't get my head around how to get that angle?

I can get a list of the vertex point of the polyline, but how do I determine the segment the point falls on?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Convert Ellipse Segment Into Spline Or Polyline

May 3, 2012

Our customer send us drawing with ellipse segments  into.

With Autocad 2008 I bought a plug-in call SplineConvert that did the job perfectly but not compatible with 2013.

Is there any plugin that could replace that tool  ?

Is there any standard ACAD command that could easily do this Job ?

I need a way to make 2 or 3 times per week  this converting on all ellipses of large and detail 2D drawings so no time to offset in and out all those .

I try also DXFOUT in R12 but all the spline are being converted into 3d  polyline making a huge files that froze my PC.

I also try FLATTEN but did not see how it work , the ellipse stay an ellipse.

AutoCad 3D :: Create 3D Model Of Segment Of Jogging Path / Trail

Jul 17, 2013

I need to create a 3D model of a segment of a jogging path/trail that has a drainage feature called a knick. I pasted a freehand drawing of what a knick looks like below this post. It's a semi-circular area that slopes to one side at a small angle on a trail that is otherwise flat. I need a model of a trail segment with two of these sloping indentations that is just a smooth, gray object- nothing fancy. I managed to create a simple 3D model for a second trail design that has a slope to one side throughout the trail- made a box with a tapered edge and rendered it gray.

Since to my eye a knick looks like a lemon wedge indented into the face of a box- that's what I've been working towards. Made a box, made a cylinder, moved the cylinder so half of its base sits on top of the box face on which I want the indentation, and then used pushpull and subtract to take out a shallow semi-circular cut off the top of the box (did two of these about 20 units apart on the same face).

Here is where I ran into my own limitations. I don't know how to taper the semicircular cut so that it actually slopes off the face to the edge and doesn't look like a clean cut depression. I need it to slope to the edge at a 2% angle. I've tried tapering many times, but I don't think I completely understand the concept of the tapering axis (or rather I know that I completely misunderstand it) because all I end up doing is tapering the various faces of the box and the knick cut stays the same. I also tried out all the tools on the ribbon that look like they can be used for filling in or smoothing edges, but without any luck. Or should I be approaching the process of making the knick from a completely different set of commands?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: How To Create Curved Segment Node

Nov 11, 2012

Using pen tool I have to press Alt + click again at the node while drawing to create a cusp node.

My method is - Select Pen tool - left click for first node and drag to achieve desired curved segment - release mouse button - press again left click for second node at desired position and drag control handle to create desired curve - then Alt click at second node for cusp node - continue in this fashion for rest of the curved segments as shown in my example.

Is it possible to draw and edit control points for a cusp, smooth or symmetric node simultaneously in a single stretch while drawing curved segments with some other shortkey combinations but without pressing again S for smooth/symmetric or Alt click node for a cusp or F10 for edit later?

AutoCad 3D :: Create (in 3D Workspace) 3D Polyline

Jun 13, 2011

I'm trying to create (in 3D workspace), a 3D polyline which starts from the "ground" and goes up the Z axis for 45 units (meters for example), then, the polyline continues "up" but in a 45 degree inclination, and then it goes up further but still 45 degrees from the last segment.

I attached a picture of this to the post, the top line is the one I want to create, and the bottom one is what I get.
The thing is that the 3dpoly command doesn't let me set the line on the Z plane, unless I fix it in ortho mode, and even after I do the first segment that way, the next one stays fixed in either the Z plane or the XY plane, but not in the 45 degree between them that I want....

P.S. - when I click the 3d polyline command, there are no options in the command area, just "specify first point...." - is this what should appear?

AutoCad 3D :: Create A Solid From 3D Polyline

Jun 13, 2013

As part of a larger job we have surveyed the top of a dry stone wall. The client now wants that we make a solid for him from the surveyed points with a height of 2000mm (the drawing units are in millimetres).

A 3d polyline was created from the lines joining the points and I have that in the attached drawing.

I'm not looking for someone to create the wall, but I'm looking for the method to do it, as it will certainly crop up again with this new client. I've tried many ways in both AutoCAD and Civil 3D but just can't create the solid.

AutoCAD .NET :: Create Polyline With Insertion Point Prompt

Mar 13, 2012

I've been going through some examples on [URL] to create polylines and i've managed to make some code run. One thing that I can't seem to find information on though, is how to use the default AutoCAD command line options in my code. For instance, I would like to be able to prompt the user whether they would like to snap the polyline to an insertion point, everytime they create a new verticie.

Below is some example code from the site that i'm working from:

namespace MyPlineApp
{
public class MyPlineCmds

AutoCAD .NET :: How To Create 3D Polyline Based On Point3D Collection

Aug 23, 2012

I want to create a command:

My selection set consists of dbpoints that exists on my drawing and they are more or less in line

I create a new point3dcollection with this db points

I want to create a 3d polyline based on this point3d collection

My problem is : how to sort this point3d collection based on a picked start point and picked end point?

The only idea I have is:

from start point i calculate the distance to each point3d from collection and based on the results i sort the point3d collection based on distances.

AutoCad 2D :: Create Polyline Arc That Mimics Shape Of A Building

Jan 13, 2014

I have been sent a client's construction drawing for a care home where i need to design the sprinkler installation. The majority of the rooms have got the same head positions within them, but they have all got a slightly different angle as the building is shaped like a banana. Unfortunately its not a uniform radius that i can tell as the one side is larger than the other.

So my question is this. Normally, on a square building, I drop in construction lines along the bedrooms so that i know my sprinkler heads are all the same distance off a wall, and I only need to line up one side. However, with this building being a curve, and the wall angle being slightly different on each room, how do I place an angled construction line or polyline to act as my set out line for my heads.
