AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Mtext Editing
Nov 12, 2013I have mtext in several drawings that contains an error that'd I'd like to fix using Lisp. An example of what this text should look like is:
NOTE:
SEE DRAWING XXXX FOR DRIVE DETAILS
The fist problem is that all of the text after the note has a width factor of 0.1 and is all squished together. The second problem is that the text height of the title (the "NOTE:" part) is supposed to be larger than the actual note (the "SEE DRAWING XXXX FOR DRIVE DETAILS" PART). Is there a way to fix this using lisp? I had a lisp in progress (not done) which is:
(IF
(SETQ SSET (SSGET "X" '((0 . "MTEXT"))))
(PROGN
(SETQ COUNT -1)
(WHILE (< (SETQ COUNT (1+ COUNT)) (SSLENGTH SS))
(SETQ ENTDATA (ENTGET (SSNAME SSET COUNT)))
(SETQ ENTTEXT (CDR (ASSOC 1 ENTDATA)))
(ENTMOD (SUBST (CONS 1 (STRCAT "{\W1;" ENTTEXT "}")) (ASSOC 1 ENTDATA) ENTDATA))
The last line has no effect on the width factor of the note.
This is the entdata for this particular piece of mtext (they aren't all the same):
((-1 . <Entity name: 7ffff79ce50>) (0 . "MTEXT") (330 . <Entity name:
7ffffb069f0>) (5 . "392FD") (100 . "AcDbEntity") (67 . 0) (410 . "Model") (8 .
"5") (100 . "AcDbMText") (10 676.276 751.03 0.0) (40 . 3.008) (41 . 0.0) (46 .

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Mtext Background
Aug 31, 2011I have a routine, developed for me through this forum, that selects text or mtext, converts to mtext if not already, and puts a background mask with 1.1 border. I was using it fine in Map 3D 2007, but have recently switched to Civil 3D 2012 where it does not work. I get this error message:
; error: no function definition: VLAX-ENAME->VLA-OBJECT
Why does this not work in 2012? How to get it to work?
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Get Text String From Mtext?

Jan 11, 2006I would like to write a routine to resize the MText limits box to the minimum size required to cover the text, for background masking purposes. From the DXF codes, I see that I can simply set code 41 to match code 42 in order to set the width. However, I cannot seem to figure out how the vertical dimension is defined. (entget) shows no change in the DXF codes after I resize the mtext box.
I do know how to figure out the height that I need, using (acet-geom-textbox), but I can't seem to figure out how to apply this height the MText entity.
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Converting MText To Multileader
Nov 19, 2013I got this nice little lisp from [URL] .....
(defun c:mt2ml ( / oobj nobj nstrg) (vl-load-com) (setq oobj (vlax-ename->vla-object (car (nentsel "
Select source text: ")))) (if (= (vlax-get-property oobj 'ObjectName) "AcDbMText") (setq nstrg (vlax-get-property oobj 'TextString)) (exit) ) (command "_MLEADER") (while (= 1 (logand (getvar "CMDACTIVE") 1)) (command PAUSE)) (setq nobj (vlax-ename->vla-object (entlast))) (if (= (vlax-get-property nobj 'ObjectName) "AcDbMLeader") (vlax-put-property nobj 'TextString nstrg) (exit) ) (entdel (vlax-vla-object->ename oobj)) (princ))
It converts MText to a Multileader.
My goals would be as follows:
The multileader should end up on the same layer as the Mtext. (Currently it uses the current layer.)The multileader should hold the same rotation as the Mtext. (Currently it goes to zero.)The multileader should be created in the same location as the Mtext, without the user having to click. (Currently the multileader is created wherever the user clicks.)The multileader should be created without a leader. We can add one afterwards if needed, but for many we don't need a leader. (We're just using the object as mtext with a box around it.)
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Calling Mleaders With Mtext
Oct 17, 2007I'm finding Mleaders with Mtext don't seem to play well with command calls. All works fine until one tries to enter the mleader text. Before testing this, be sure your mleader style is set to use mtext. I recommend starting the leader with the arrow first.
Compare this mleader's text entry behavior in this basic lisp command call:(command "_.acad_dim.mleader") with the following routine that relies on an open ended command prompt (useful if you want to add more commands after calling the mleader command):
(defun c:mlx (/ cc_echo)
(prompt "
Example showing mleader mtext misbehaving")
(setq cc_echo (getvar "cmdecho"))
(setvar "cmdecho" 1)
(command "_.acad_dim.mleader")
[code]...
With qleaders, the leader and text are separate entities.
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Edit MTEXT Attribute Value
Dec 13, 2013I'm having issues with updating an MTEXT attributes value using lisp.
If I insert my block (this is a titleblock) and run my lisp routine the MTEXT attribute updates fine. Once I edit the MTEXT attribute with the MTEXT editor, and then run my lisp routine again, the MTEXT attribute will not update anymore. All the single line (DTEXT) attributes update fine. The lisp routine I created has worked for years...this is the first time I've tried it with an MTEXT attribute.

AutoCAD 2010 :: MTEXT Is Rotated When Try To Edit Any MTEXT
Jul 12, 2011Why is this happening?
The dwg was fine, then it crashed while changing from modle space to paper space...
When i recovered the dwg, EVERY MTEXT I try to edit becomes rotated vertically and stays that way when i close the edit box...
I do not recall hitting any buttons or making any keystrokes without my knowing...
Is there a way to get my text back to Horizontal and stay that way?
I tried setting the MTEXTFIXED to: 0, 1 & 2.
NONE of these options changed anything.
I NEED to have this fixed. more importantly, i need to know why this is happening sop that i can take steps to prevent this happening in the future...
I am currently working with the latest CAD available.
