AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Create A Table With All Characters Inside A Font
Jan 4, 2013
I want to create a table with all characters inside a font.I used "%%" to change a number to it's character.but "%%" limited to 999 and for numbers bigger than 999 it doesn't work.
also, CHR command limited to 255 and for numbers bigger than 255 it change to (number-255). so I used "%%" to create this table:[Please change default font in your AutoCAD to ARIAL]
(Defun c:charmap ()
(setvar "cmdecho" 0)
(setq cnt 1.0)
(setq r_cnt 0.0)
(setq ts 32)
(setq x 0.0)
(setq y 0.0)
[code]...
I want to know:
1- what can I do for numbers more than 999?
2- How can I know the number of characters inside a font?
3-how can improve my LISP program to have complete characters inside the fonts?

I am trying to create a selection set (or LIST) of all objects inside a unnamed GROUP.
I found a means to access the unnamed group, however I am having trouble creating the list.
Command: (entget (cdr (assoc 350 (dictsearch (namedobjdict) "ACAD_GROUP"))))((-1 . <Entity name: 7efe6280>) (0 . "GROUP") (5 . "130") (102 . "{ACAD_REACTORS")(330 . <Entity name: 7efe5c68>) (102 . "}") (330 . <Entity name: 7efe5c68>) (100 . "AcDbGroup") (300 . "") (70 . 1) (71 . 1) (340 . <Entity name: 7efe6268>) (340 . <Entity name: 7efe6260>))
In the example above, there are 2 entities in the group.
What I want to do is to remove a certain entity from the GROUP, then delete the entity.
Repeat until all entities of that type are removed (I can figure this part out...).
How do I create a Selection Set (or LIST) of all entities inside a GROUP?
To access the first GROUP name in the dictionary:
(cdr (assoc 3 (dictsearch (namedobjdict) "ACAD_GROUP")))

I have some legacy custom .DCL files that we want to convert the user interfaces (text boxes, labels, etc) to Chinese characters. Is that even possible in .DCL?
I have gotten our NET and VBA apps converted but not having much luck with the DCL files.

we use AutoCAD 2013 english version also in China.
Have a look to t below process
(setq app (vlax-get-acad-object))
(setq actdoc (vla-get-activedocument app))
(setq actlay (vla-get-activelayout actdoc))
(setq laynam (vlax-get-property actlay 'name))
On a Chinese computer with Windows XP, the layout name via ActiveX is displayed correctly "A3 -布局-02" on the variable laynam.
But under Windows 7 64 Bit I get this "A3 -??-02". So all ActiveX objects with AutoLisp commands do not transfer the Chinese Unicode characters, also on a system in china.
But the pure lisp command (layoutlist) for example returns always the correct characters ("A3 -布局-02")
Do I need any Chinese dll’s for ActiveX dependent language? On my test PC I installed the file autocad_2013_traditional_chinese_language_pack_win_64bit in the hope I get shared files for ActiveX but this did not bring success.

Is there a way to find and/or replace "very" special characters like [carriage return], [backspace] or even [tab mark], considering that the first thing that comes to mind when saying special characters is the standard and extended ASCII only.

Replacing characters in a text file.
I solved the following Lisp routine chore. I have this csv file of coordinates (and many more) that comes from a total station:1,100,100,10,50
2,100,200,12,50
3,200,200,12,50
4,200,100,10,51
and should replace the code after the last comma like this:1,100,100,10,.50
2,100,200,12,.50
3,200,200,12,.50
4,200,100,10,..50
To be able to generate the topographic map. And I have this code but does not work properly:
(defun c:cod (/ filename fileopenr readline)
(if (setq filename (getfiled "!!! SELECT *.csv FILE COORDINATE:... ¡¡¡" "c:/" "csv" 0 ))
(progn (setq fileopenr (open filename "w"))
(while (setq readline (read-line fileopenr))
[[code].......

I'm trying to write a simple Custom Command that sets any layer that matches "$-*" to a specific color. But as soon as AutoCAD sees the $, it thinks I'm trying to do a DIESEL expression. Supposedly, the quote marks specify that the enclosed characters should be treated as plain text, but that doesn't happen.Here's what I've got:
^C^C-LAYER;C;252;"$-*";;
And this is what I get:
Command: -LAYERCurrent layer: "$-HATCH-00-002-PW-BOAT"Enter an option [?/Make/Set/New/Rename/ON/OFF/Color/Ltype/LWeight/MATerial/Plot/Freeze/Thaw/LOck/Unlock/stAte/Description/rEconcile]: CNew color [Truecolor/COlorbook] : 252Enter name list of layer(s) for color 252 <$-HATCH-00-002-PW-BOAT>: "No matching layer names found.Enter an option [?/Make/Set/New/Rename/ON/OFF/Color/Ltype/LWeight/MATerial/Plot/Freeze/Thaw/LOck/Unlock/stAte/Description/rEconcile]:
It stops, hanging at the incompleted -LAYER command prompt.

When i export revit drawing with revit family
the revit family become block in autocad like this
M_Single-Flush - 700 x 2200mm-278353-Ground Level _0_45
usually i want to remove the ID and view name to become like this without have to re type because it is tedious
M_Single-Flush - 700 x 2200mm
something like how many letters you want to remove from last to first ?
or something better like remove this last two dash and the letters embedded inside ( that separate name-ID-View name) -278353-Ground Level _0_45?

I can't write unicode characters to a text file.
as you know, you can write chars on text screen easily: (write-line (strcat "\U+" "2122"))
but if you want to write chars to a text file, this command does not work: (write-line (strcat "\U+" "2122") TxtFileVar)
Here is a part of my code to test:
(defun C:HexGen ( / d f S w x y z h c)(setq d '("0" "1" "2" "3" "4" "5" "6" "7" "8" "9" "A" "B" "C" "D" "E" "F") f (open "c:\0000-FFFF.txt" "w"))(foreach w d (foreach x d (foreach y d (progn (setq S "") (foreach z d (progn (setq h (strcat w x y z)) (setq c (strcat "\U+" h));;;<===character (setq S (strcat S " " (strcat h " = " c ))) ) ) (write-line S f) ) ) )) (close f)(startapp "notepad" "c:\0000-FFFF.txt"))

assign a character where ? is shown so that it matches with the number of characters to remove based on the 3 lines above (see wcmatch lines). At present, whatever number I replace that ?? with, it removes that number of characters from the layer that I selected (if it meets that WCMATCH criteria). Another option which may be more difficult is to be able to have the routine look at the object layer and if it contains -N- or -D- or -NEW- or -DEMO- then to remove all the characters that follow these layer modifiers. This way I can cleanly add another project modifier behind these modifers.

I wanted to flatten arcs, circles and lines inside a block using the following lisp (which I found in this forum). I found that sometimes this lisp is unable to flatten the ARCs inside the blocks. I do not understand why it is not working for all the blocks. I have attached a drawing in which this lisp is not working.
(defun c:FlattenRaj ( / blocks stpt enpt inspt )
(vl-load-com)

Is there a way (or a “trick”) to have one attribute at two different locations inside of one block (I want to avoid filling in the same text twice when this block is inserted or edited)?

I have a simple block with 2 attribute and 1 line inside it.
something like this:
Attribute1
──────
Attribute2
I want to modify length of line due to width of thoes attributs. length of line is equal to maximum(width attribute1 and width attribute2).
dxf code for start point of a line is 10 and end point for a line entity is 11.The question is: how can I modify the length of line automatically via maximum width of these attributes?
for getting width of a text:
(defun GetWidth ( en ) ((lambda ( lst ) (- (caadr lst) (caar lst))) (textbox en)))
sample:
A1
──────
Attribute2
Attribute1
──────
A2

I have the following code to redefine a block after a command has ended:
(vl-load-com);*********************************************************(defun Redefine() (command "_.INSERT" "reactortest=reactortest" nil)(princ "Block redefined."));****************************************(vlr-command-reactor nil '((:vlr-commandEnded . endCommand)));******************************************************(defun endCommand (calling-reactor endcommandInfo / thecommandend) ; Get the name of the command.(setq thecommandend (nth 0 endcommandInfo)); Check name of the command.(cond ((= thecommandend "PLINE") (Redefine)));cond(princ));defun(princ)
It doesn't work because INSERT is an interactive function and can't be called while a reactor is active. Is there another way to redefine a block that can be used in a reactor? The block is in one of the default search path's.

I have set up several tables inside autocad that have one cell as the input cell and after regen the others perform calculations based on that cell. I want to write a command that uses the same value as the input value to draw the arc to scale. I tried using the table value as is called out in the cell field:
^C^C_arc 36,6;e;0,6;r;Table(8796085192704).A3;.
Is there anyway to get a value from a cell inside autocad and put it into my macro so I can draw an arc of the radius shown?

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 need a lisp code to burst all "blocks with text/attributes inside" in selected area. That means user should select an area (window selection) and lisp program should be find all blocks with TEXT or ATTRIB inside in selected area and then applys "BURST express tools" command to all these blocks in the selected area by user.

The PARTS LISTS on our old drawings are simply text entities and lines. Some are MTEXT. But our new drawing template has us creating our parts list using the actual AutoCAD TABLES entity.
I'm looking for the best method to go from lines and text in AutoCAD, to an AutoCAD table. As of now, I have to retype everything since I can't select a column/row or group of text entities, copy/paste into a table.
Any LISP function that will allow me to go from TEXT and LINES to a TABLE? I've tried B2E (lisp name) but it's not working - found that on a lisp site somewhere.

Is there a way to unlock a cell using lisp. I have a datalink that is used to create a table. Once the table is selected I have a command that will format some of the cell style (which will let me while locked), but it I cannot seem to find a way to unlock them to merge a couple of cells. I can manually do it using the table toolbar, but programmably I am a little stuck. I can see if it is editable by using the vla-iscontenteditable and it will return :vlax-false. I do not see a vla-setcontenteditble or something to that effect.

I have a table, in cell D3 I have inserted a field containing a system variable. The contents of the cell looks like this,
%<AcVar dimadec>%
I want to put in cell D2 the name of the vairable that is in cell D3 - I have tried the following,
%<AcExpr (D3).ObjectName>%
%<AcExpr (D3).textstring>%
Is there any way to reference the name of that system variable contained in cell D3? I want to do this to prevent errors by curious new users that may edit the table, I want the table to reference itself so that the system variable being read is always related to the correct system variable name.

I have created subroutines to build tables in AutoCAD.
What I would like to do is to is if a value in the table list (example a question mark), then make the background color of that cell color 1 (red).
List to insert as a table -
(setq List_Table (list (list "A" "?" "C" "D" "E") (list "11" "12" "13" "14" "15") (list "21" "22" "23" "24" "25")))
(Build_Table "Title" List_Table 3 5 0.1 1)
Here are the subroutines -
(defun Build_Table (TableName List_Table NumRows NumColumns RowHeight ColWidth /); P0 Table_Obj KW KK KT KL Blocks_Obj Block_Obj Block_Id)
;--set table scale-------------------------------------
(setq Dscale 1.0)
;--get location----------------------------------------
(setq P0 (vlax-3d-point (getpoint (strcat "
