AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Escape Command In A Script That Doesn't End The Script

Sep 6, 2011

I can't find a keystroke or combination of keystrokes that will issue the "escape" command in a script file without ending the script. In other words, I want a line in the script which will issue the "escape" command and then go to the next line of the script and continue on.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Annotation Command Set Correct Layer For Duration Of Command

Nov 21, 2010

I am currently writing a series of routines for setting the layers for text, leaders and dimension commands. The end goal is a system where any annotation command sets the correct layer for the duration of the command, then reverts back to the layer that was active before the command.

I have managed to complete all the code, and it appears to be working fine, I just have one question: I have used -layer "m" "Lay_name" etc... for all layer setting commands, rather than any code to see if the layer exists already. In my limited testing this seems to be suitable, nothing that exists on that layer seems to be affected.

I know how to write code to determine if the layer exists already and set the layer instead, but so far it seems unnecessary??

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: File Doesn't Run

Aug 28, 2013

I have an AutoLisp file that runs fine with AutoCAD Core Console 2013.  It runs fine when loaded through the standard interface of 2014.  However, it does NOT run using AutoCAD Core Console 2014.  I know there are new security features in 2014.  What has to be done to allow it to run in 2014 AutoCAD Core Console?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Error In While Command

May 22, 2013

We have a lisp routine that I co-authored ages ago and then haven't done much programming in about 7 years.  I seem to have forgotten much of my language skills.  This portion of the lisp routine was running fine in autocad 2005 which is what the computer had on it, and it doesn't run on autocad 2010. 

I've narrowed it down to the while statement which is why you see it commented out, but that portion is necessary.   My main question is was there a change in the language specifically the while statement between 2005 and 2010? 
 
; GET LINES OVER 10" AND THROW OUT (if (= (cdr(assoc 0 outerinfo)) "LWPOLYLINE") (progn (setq remlenouter 0.0) (setq numseg (cdr(assoc 90 outerinfo))) (setq edd (member(assoc 10 outerinfo) outerinfo)) (setq n1 0) ;(while (< n1 (- (* numseg 4) 4)) ;(setq dist (distance (cdr(nth n1 edd)) (cdr(nth (+ n1 4) edd)))) ;(if (>= dist edmmax) (setq remlenouter (+ remlenouter dist))) ;(setq n1 (+ n1 4)) ;) ; end while (setq dist (distance (cdr(nth n1 edd)) (cdr(nth 0 edd)))) (if (>= dist edmmax) (setq remlenouter (+ remlenouter dist))) ) ; end progn ) ; END IF

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Looping A Command

Aug 26, 2013

I am using AutoCAD 2011. I have a lisp that I have created/modified.

What it does:

Allows me to Select a layer that I call out and change its color properties back to bylayer.

(i primarily use this when i am cleaning up my drawings, I turn them all to gray with another command i have then i run this one to find all the entities on that specified layer)

What i am trying to do: 

I would like this command to do a loop.  So say i type in a layer name that does not exist, instead of running through the rest of the command i want it to revert back to "specify layer name" until the correct name is entered for that layer.

Here is the lisp:

(defun cLL ()
(setq varLayer (getstring t "
Specify Layer Name: "))
(sssetfirst nil (ssget "X" (list (cons 8 varLayer))))
(command "change" "p" "" "p" "c" "bylayer" "")
(princ)

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Check For Last Command

Jan 8, 2014

We have developed processes, standard operating procedures, work instructions (whatever you want to call it) for several tasks we do on a regular basis.  More importantly, tasks that we don't do on a regular basis.  On some processes, performing certain commands is a critical step in the quality of the product.  I have also developed a lot of lisps to streamline these processes.  Of course there are commands that just don't make sense to try and include into existing lisps.

The problem we're having though, is that people are not following the processes.  I don't know if they think they are smarter than the process, or if they don't understand the process, or if they are just complacent.

One of the things that would really work to get everyone to follow the process, is to have my lisp routines check to see what the last entry at the command line was.

For example, if one of my lisps depended on the drawing be saved, well, instead of putting the save command in the lisp, sometimes it would be beneficial to check to see if the drawing was saved in the first place.  Kudos to those who do follow the process, they do save the drawing, and then run the lisp.  On rather large files, I would prefer not to save the drawing twice, back to back.

There are a lot more benefits to checking to see what the last user entry was, in a certain drawing.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: DCL Command Locking Up

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Control UCS Without Using Command Line?

Is it possible to control the UCS without using the command line?  I'd like to access it and control it with vlisp much the same way I can access DXF groups and manipulate insertions.  Seems like it should be possible to play with it's definition inside the object model.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Prevent Command From Repeating?

Jul 6, 2012

I am working on a lisp to scale drawings of various sizes to a predetermined size.  After the lisp has run and scaled the drawing, the prompts for base point and reference point run a second time.  How can I get this to run through once?  I think it has something to do with the way the reference length is being entered.  The base point and first reference point are the lower left corner of the drawing, while the second reference point is the lower right corner.

(COMMAND "SCALE" "ALL" "" (SETQ A (GETPOINT "
SELECT BASE POINT :")) "R" A
 (GETPOINT "

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Command Alias Transfer?

May 23, 2012

Most efficient way to transfer my custom pgp commands? I'm constantly moving between different computers and autodesk versions.

I used to just be able to overwrite the acad.pgp file in the support directory but this doesn't seem to work in the newer versions and I'm hesitant to continue like that in case their are new commands introduced in newer versions that I don't know about then they'd be over written.

Is there anyway to include my command overrides (eg. c=copy) in my back up cui file?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Command / If Layer Is Frozen

Mar 29, 2012

I have a  Layer named "Arch - Niveau 1".I would like to enter in the command prompt  "a1"..It would read if the layer is frozen or thawed and if it is frozen, it will thaw it?

And if the layer is thawed, it would freeze it..What could be added is: To check up if the layer exists and if not, create it.Would do the same for 2 other layer named "Arch - Niveau 2" command "a2"   and  "Arch - Niveau 3" command "a3". Is it clear?Now the lisp I've found and modified is this:

(defun c:a1 (/ lay ldef flag) (setq layn "Arch - Niveau 1") (command "_.LAYER") (if (not (tblsearch "LAYER" layn)) (command "_Make" layn) (progn (setq ldef (tblsearch "LAYER" layn) flag (cdr (assoc 70 ldef))) (and (= (logand flag 1) 1) (command "_Thaw" layn)) )) (command ""))
 This lisp looks if it exists, if not, create it and only thaw the layer.

I'm not enough familiar with the "not", the "progn" the "flag", "and" and "logand"  (!!!!)

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Alias With Custom Command

Mar 6, 2013

I'm trying to get familiar with AutoCAD. Google and didn't manage to solve a problem :

In AutoCAD LT 2013, I created a custom command called Special fillet :

Name : Special filletDescription : Round a polylineCommand display name : SFILLETMacro : ^C^C_fillet;p;r;0.1

I created two aliases at the end of acadlt.pgp :

SF,         *SFILLET
C,          *COPY

When i type C, it works fine (just a test) but although it appears correctly in the Command prompt, SF doesn't work and it keeps telling me : UNKNOWN COMMAND "SF"

Last thing, if I create an icon in a toolbar with the special fillet command : it works fine...

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Creating Menus In Command Prompt?

I am able in lisp to create a command prompt selection menu, easy (see code below).However what I want is for the lisp to be ready to undertake an action UNLESS I select an option.

An example is the offset command wich has a function ready to roll (namely the specify offset distance) "OR" I can interrupt the "specify offset distance" and enter one of the sub options (in the case of offset Through/ Erase/Layer).

My code attempts to offset also, UNLESS the user wishes to specify a distance.
 
(DEFUN C:loadoffset ();CREATING MENU FOR SUB COMMANDS [GETIT] [GOTIT]...(setq choose (getstring "
