AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Extract Data From DXF File?

Oct 6, 2011

I am trying to write a lisp file that extracts the LAYER, Z, X, Y, TEXT HEIGHT, POINT NUMBER, from the attached DXF file. Ultimately I will have the lisp insert a "POINT" at the X,Y,Z, cords, and then a "TEXT" entity at the same coordinates with the text height value and the point number string. Both entities need to be on the layer ending in  "-PN". The layer name will change depending on the date. I have a third party program that creates the DXF file.

The point of the lisp file is to insert the point numbers and points into my drawing at their correct locations. For the life of me I can not make this work. I have attached the little bit of lisp I have, which unfortunately does not work properly because of it searching for the "TEXT" entry in the DXF file of which there are three per point number. I only need one. I have also attached the DXF file I have. maybe just an overall procedure that I can then code myself? I'm just not good at getting lisp to read a file and extract what I want from it.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Extract Elevations Of Polylines

A quick lisp routine to extract the elevations of a selection set of 2d polylines?  I have a massive "contour" file composed of 2d polylines with elevations.  I need to find the min and max polyline elevation in selected areas.  I can't figure out how to extract just the elevations of my selected polylines so I can quickly see the elevation values?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Extract Linetype From DWG File

Sep 12, 2013

I've got a linetype that's part of our autocad template file and has been for so long that nobody around here even knows where the original line file is.

I need to extract the linetype out so that I can make some minor modifications.  I did do a search and found a nifty lsp routine from Paul Turvill.  (Here's the thread that pointed me there:  [URL] ..........

I ran it and it SEEMED to work.  All the linetypes in the file it created look good EXCEPT for the one I needed to extract. That one looks like this in the line file:
 
*TREELINE,Series of arcs used to indicate tree drip lines
A,0.0001,-0.0001,

The linetype DOES display properly in the dwg file (meaning lines drawn using it look good).

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Any Way To Extract All Dimension Text At End Into Excel

Aug 16, 2012

I'm dimensioning an old drawing with the real (measured) dimensions and with the drawing dimensions in brackets (using ' 1500 (<>)' to give '1500 (1505)' for example.

What I'd like is to also be able to put on the difference between the length I type in and the length in brackets - as this would let me see any really glaring errors that can't be attributed to user-error on the laser measure.So I could type in '1500  (<>) (X)' where X is the formula, and get ' 1500 (1505) (5)' back?

How to be able to run a script that could highlight any dimensions where the number is brackets and the typed number have a a difference of, say, 50.Or failing that, any way to extract all the dimension text at the end into excel so I can see the differences myself?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: How To Sensibly Extract Angular Dimensions As Attributes

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Extract Field Expression of Attribute In Block

Mar 8, 2012

Is that possible to have a lisp to extract the Field Expression of a attribute in a block?Specifically, to extract the property VALUE (TextString) of this attribute.After to extract, I would like to put this text extracted in a different layout tab, in the same drawing. In this way, I will have a text linked to the attribute value between two layout tabs. So, when I have to change the attribute value, the text will be updated automatically.

I know that if I use the FIELD command to manually copy and paste this value it will work, but when I have a lot of attributes it becomes very laborious.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Evaluate That BOTH Attribute Tags Exist In Block And Extract

Sep 15, 2011

I was wondering if it was the COND statement that I would need to use to evaluate a block to confirm that two attribute tags existed  and if so, if would process the block to perform an attribute extraction of both of those tags. It would ignore blocks that only had one or the other attribute tags - and only extract the attribute values if the block had BOTH of the tags present - It could be blank, but it had to exist.

For example, I want to find blocks that have the attribute tag "PART_A" and "ID" - and then create a CDF that has the value of "PART_A" in the first column and "ID" in the second column. Then it closes my CDF file.

Then, I want it to scan my drawing again for blocks that contain attribute tag "PART_B" and "ID" and then re-open that CDF file and append the values so that the values of teh attribute "PART_B" is in the first column and the values of the tag "ID" are in the second column.

I have been playing with the following code --- is there anyway to modify the code to get it to do what I need? I have already removed the part that writes the header-row....

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: 3D Point From X And Y?

Oct 9, 2013

I'm trying to find acceptable point values to feed to the vlax-3d-point function for a vla-addmtext function. With vanilla lisp I just provide the point as x y = "7/32" "2-3/8". So I assumed that I could drop a 0 in for the z like: (VLAX-3D-POINT "7/32" "2-3/8" 0).

Then I thought I was going to be tricksy and try (vlax-3D-point (getpoint)) believing that I could pick the point and get what I need to feed the function, but yet again, no deal. The command line gave me: 

node
of #<variant 8197 ...>

Nothing I can use in my code. So how do I find the point in a format that vlax-3d-point will like?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Embedded Data In DWF File

Mar 18, 2012

I'm looking for a way to add custom data in dwf files. We currently create 3D models which get exported to dwf format so that we can share information with clients. Ideally, we'd like them to be able to click on any member and have the software provide additonal information about that part. Example, part number. It would be awesome if the client could then say double click that part and have the actual detailed part drawing open up.

The parts we are trying to reference are generated using a third party application, so they are not solids, but the information is easily accessible in LISP.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Inserting Block On A Point Of Arc?

May 19, 2012

know a lisp routine that would insert a block @ a specific point on an arc? For instance if I have an arc that has a radius of 20'-0" & I want to insert a block at a set distance from the end of the arc.i could probably use the divide or measure command but I was hoping I could do it with lisp. I would also like to be able to move the object along the path of the arc at a specific distance.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Accessing Point Clouds?

Apr 19, 2012

I have a small app to create, related to point clouds.

I know VisualLISP pretty well, definitely well enough to accomplish the task.but...I can't figure out how to retrieve information on the point cloud's clipbox using lisp.

I know a little VB.NET; I took a one-semester class at the JC, two years ago. It's going to take time for me to get ramped up enough with VB to do this job, so I don't really want you to tell me the only way to get to the clipbox is through vb.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Insert Point At Every Block?

Apr 19, 2013

I need a routine that inserts a point at the insert point or block named "Insert_Point" at every block in the file. The routine could use the current layer, which would be set prior to starting the routine. If it could request the user for the PDMode value and PDSize that would be great too. This will assist me in creating block libraries.
