Lisp that can select all hatch in a drawing with a layer called AELE, even if it is embedded in a block and change it to layer AHAT with Green colour?
The layer AHAT may or may not already exist in the drawing.
We need to run the lisp on a lot of drawings (exported from Revit) so I need to use the script to run this lisp on multiple drawings.
I don't give the right keywords with Google !?So from a classic selection (or ALL for ALL Blocks of the DWG) of entities,
we will keep ONLY blocks (Static or Dynamic)I am looking for a Lisp/VLisp routine to update all Color of Hatches inside Blocks when the Hatch Color is xxx If the color hatch is NOT XXX we don't update !
The problem : update all hatch from blocks where Color = 255 (or any other value)
---> other classic Color (1-256)
--> RGB Color 255,255,255 or any other
I don't know at all how to switch hatch entities from classic color to RGB color inside a Block..And dynamic block in Lisp/VLisp are far from my level 0.2 in Lisp ...
I have a bolt program that draws the thickness of a bolts in elevation as a polyline with a global width, what i need is a lisp to then change this lwpolyline to a hatch, ie if global width is 20 and the polyline is 30 long i need to change this to a 20x30 solid hatch, is it possible to get the the global width and length and convert this to a boundary hatch? I need the same thing done for bolts in plan too as the circle is a lwpolyline also.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to write a lisp routine that will make a layer called hatch, set it as current and then run the hatch command.
BUT the hatch command is not bring up the hatch dialogue box, it just puts things on the command line.
The layer is being made & set current.
The lisp is as follows:
(defun c:hh (/ ec)
(setq ec (getvar "cmdecho"))
(setvar "cmdecho" 0)
(command "-layer" "m" "hatch" "c" "8" "" "l" "continuous" "" "s" "hatch" "")
(command "hatch")
(setvar "cmdecho" ec)
)
On another matter, I have just found the bevel lisp routine by Terry Miller which works great BUT only for imperial measurements. How to make Terry's metric, that will work for metric measurements.
lisp..It work fine but just that i need some minor modificatio to it...At moment, when i activate the lisp, it will automatic select all dimension,leader and multileader to a layer call "DIMENSION"...Anyway i wonder if it is possible to prevent any dimension,leader or multileader in layer "Section" will not be change to layer "Dimension"?

I am trying to entmake a hatch entity from a hatch template.
After entget the template hatch entity, i get the followings

Now I wrote the following code using the above data as follows
(entmake (list (cons 0 "HATCH") (cons 67 0) (cons 410 "Model") (cons 8 "SECTION-LABEL") (cons 62 255) (cons 10 (list 0.0 0.0 0.0)) (cons 210 (list 0.0 0.0 1.0)) (cons 2 "SOLID") (cons 70 1) (cons 71 0) (cons 91 1) (cons 92 1) (cons 93 8) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt1) (cons 11 pt2) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt2) (cons 11 pt3) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt3) (cons 11 pt4) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt4) (cons 11 pt5) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt5) (cons 11 pt6) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt6) (cons 11 pt7) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt7) (cons 11 pt8) (cons 72 1) (cons 10 pt8) (cons 11 pt1) (cons 97 0) (cons 75 0) (cons 76 1) (cons 98 1) (cons 10 (list 0.0 0.0 0.0)) (cons 450 0) (cons 451 0) (cons 460 0.0) (cons 461 0.0) (cons 452 1) (cons 462 1.0) (cons 453 2) (cons 463 0.0) (cons 63 5) (cons 421 255) (cons 463 1.0) (cons 63 7) (cons 470 "LINEAR")))
The point variables pt1, pt2....pt8 are all defined. But when I run the code the hatch is not being created? Why?
I have been filtering through this descuession group for a whil this morning looking for what I need and have found somethings that are close but haven't managed to change them a little to do what I am wanting..
I have drawings with a block named UG101 and has been inserted on all sort of different layers.
What I would like to do is run a lisp routine that would select all blocks with the name UG101 and put them on the layer CableInfo.
I have many other blocks that i need to do the same to but with different names, so I was hoping, I could change the lisp routine around to do the rest of the blocks in the drawing..
I have the following Lisp command that changes a selected layer to a different layer. I have tried modifying it change known layer names to different known layer names. i.e run routine and it changes layer "2" to "3" then changes layer "dim" to "dims" ect then stops.

View 9 Replies View Relatedwondering if is possible to have a lisp routine to:After use the INSERT command, the routine will automatically change the layer of the inserted block to a specific layer according of its name.
i.e.
Step 1 : I will insert a block named Block A using the normal autocad INSERT command (I do not want to insert the block without the Insert window dialog box)
Step 2 : After the insertion, the routine will select the last insertion (or the last object, or any other best way to select this block and will take it's name)
Step 3 : The routine has a list that says:
(If the last insertion (or object) is named Block A, put it in the layer Layer A with color Bylayer and linetype Bylayer)
(If the last insertion (or object) is named Block B, put it in the layer Layer B with color Bylayer and linetype Bylayer)
and so on... I can make the approprieated list by myself folowing my standards.
I think it will be nice to avoid an error if the block is not in the list. So:
(If the last insertion (or object) name is not in the list, do nothing)
To finish, it will be nice to create the layer if it does not exist. Also, Unlock, Thaw and Turn on the layer if it's Locked, Frozen or Off.
I need to do three things in a LISP routine for around 200 drawings. First, I need rename lots of old layer to new standard layer name, like change layer name "CL-RAILWAY-0" to new layer name "CL-0".
Secondly, I need translate some layer to standard layer, like all the things on layer "CL-WATER-160" to layer "CL-0"
Last, change some linetype, like change linetype"CENTER" to "CENTERLINE". I can do all those things by "CHECKSTANDARD" manually, but I really need someway faster and easier.
how to write a lisp that when i activate it, it will change all the objects in the drawings to be change to "Layer 0" and all linetypes "Dashed" change to be "hidden"...

I am using 2011 Civil 3D and there is a bug I am trying to get a workaround for. If your drawing is not closed with layer 0 being the current layer several different civil 3D entities assume the color of the current layer of xref'd drawings.
From my reading it appears I need a reactor to thaw layer 0 and make it current before close or exit commands. I am not a programmer and have struggled making this work.
I am looking for a lisp routine to search the layer table to find a particular layer color and change color.

I need to be able to grab all polylines and change global width at once. This is a repetitve task that i have created a button for. I am trying to use this but it is not working. It gets hung up on me wanting to manually select the polylines when i thought i grabbed them with the first line.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have 2000+ drawings that have either the layer state "LMAN_DWF" or "DWF". I want all of them to read "DWF" for scripting purposes. LSIP routine that will go into a drawing and change rename a layerstate if it is named incorreclty, but do nothing if it is named correctly?
Does Layer State "DWF" exist?
If Yes, skip file and move on to next file
If No, does Layer State "LMAN_DWF" exist?
if Yes Rename Layer State to "DWF"
If No, skip file and move to next file.
Or a LSIP routine that can simply dump a list of all drawings in a directory that contain "LMAN_DWF" as a layer state. I could then use that list to do a simple script to change the layer state names on those specific files.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a library that has a primary folder with 11 subfolders. If the LISP can go through all the subfolders, that would be great. But, if it cannot, I can work with going into each subfolder and running the routine. There are over 12,000 files and I don't have the time to open each one and change the color.
Here's what I need the LISP to do:
open the drawing
select everything
change the color to "bylayer"
save
close
open next drawing in folder and repeat
Once it gets to the end of the folder it can stop.
Is there any way with a click of a button by using LISP, it will change all the selected object to be changed to a pre-set layer...
Example, after i select a certain entities in a drawing, with LISP, it will change all the object to layer "0"?
Additionally, u also need it to change all selected entities that are in "dashed" linetype to be change to "hidden" linetype..
I'm attempting to create an easier way to change layer colors of nested linework by selecting the linework and having the ACAD index color dialog box appear to select the replacement color.
defining the "ic" variable;
(defun c:clc (/ ent ent_data ic ent_lay) ;change layer color(setq ent(nentsel)) (setq ent_data(entget(car ent)))(setq ic ;index color(cdr(assoc 62(ACAD_COLORDLG))))(setq ent_lay(cdr(assoc 8 ent_data)))(command "-layer" "c" ic ent_lay ""))
I have too many blocks with specific layers inside.
develope lisp can change all to layer 0 but keep color and linetype as it is.
I will use this as a part of script to change multiple block.
Basically I have one hatch pattern that was used at different UCS values. The hatch patterns are correctly shown on the screen as shown in the attached image. But the puzzling thing is that they both have a pattern angle of 0.
I have been writing a program that globally changes hatch patterns, but the problem is that once I update the pattern, they all have the same angle. I need them to keep their current rotation when the patterns are updated. I cannot seem to find object access to what that actual angle is.
vla-get-patternangle does not seem to provide the data I am looking for.
I'm trying to create a hatch pattern to match a floor tile. I want a 24" long x 6" wide plank tile. The tiles should be offset from each other 8" (a 2/3 1/3 pattern lengthwise). My problem is I only can get a 6" offset (3/4 1/4 pattern).Here's the code I've got:
0, 0,0, 0,6
90, 0,0, 6,6, 6,-18
is there a way to convert multiple 2d solids to hatches.
