AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Line Length To Dimension Override?
Sep 23, 2011
My goal is to be able to select a line and a dimension and then have the line's length appear as the text override for the dimension. I have the code to substitute the variable "dist" for the dimension text:
(setq dimselected (entsel "
Select Dimension:"))
(setq newlength dist)
(command "dimedit" "n" newlength dimselected "")
but am having problems extracting the line's length to the variable and setting setting it equal to the variable. To make things more interesting, the value needs to be in inches with fractional inches accurate to 1/16".

I wrote the code below (allow the user to pick points in different viewports and then override an existing dimension's text with the difference in X values. The (hopefully) last issue is that the fractions should be vertically stacked and at 100% text size.
(defun c2text ()
(command "mspace")
(setq p1 (getpoint "Select left point "))

I am trying to create a report of line lengths based on linetype.
I have built a list that looks like this...
(("CUT4SS" . 859.566) ("CUT4SS" . 862.231) ("CUT4SS" . 927.651) ("CUT6SS" . 1158.48) ("CUT6SS" . 509.903) ("CUT6SS" . 2840.31) ("CUT4SS" . 967.76) ("CUT4SS" . 508.73) ("CUT4SS" . 111.065) ("CUT4SS" . 483.216))
I want to take this list and create a function to create a list of total lengths i.e. the CDR's.
(("CUT6SS" .total length)("CUT4SS" . total length))

I need a Reactor to Modify Xdata - Length - contained in Line Object if this Line is modified (stretched, breaked, trimmed, etc).The routine need to verify if Line contain Xdata and modify it (and works with multiple selection).
I tried for long hours, but without success. I tried to create a list of entities while the reactor is applied, but doing so need another reactor to change these entities after the first Reactor works.The codes I used are below:
{code}
;If it just 1 string only you want to add
(defun add_xdata_str (e a v);;;EName APPID String_value
(and (not (tblsearch "APPID" a))
(regapp a))
(and (= (type e) 'ENAME)

Any way to override existing AutoCAD commands.
Lets try this. When a user types "line" at the command prompt, or hits the "line" button on the toolbar, or chooses "line" from the draw pulldown menu, is there any way I can re-write what line means and draw a circle? (Extreme example)
There are just some commands that I'd like to have a variable set in the background, depending on what the command is. So I'm thinking if I could re-write the "line" command, instead of trying to convince everyone to use and remember a custom command, it would be much more efficient. There are lisp files already loaded in their start-up suite. Not sure if that works.

Is it possible to override a dimension with some sort of formula or function that relates to the length of the dimension?
A simple linear scaling might be possible by inventing a new unit with the appropriate conversion ratio, but that wouldn't work. What I need for the dimension to display a length 400 less than the actual length.

Is there a lisp that will allow me to do a continuous dimension, but will alternate the dimension position from low, high, low and high? If there is no lisp already created, how to create one?
See Continuous dimension attachment for example.
I work at a glass and glazing company and this is how we dimension mullion width and DLO. See typical window dimensioning attachment for window elevation with dimensions.

I am trying to revise an old dialog box so that I can add some new options but I'm finding it difficult to shorten the label for a radio button enough to get the box width to look reasonable. I read somewhere that Windows fonts cause the label lengths to hold extra space for each character. The webpage that I found this on said the solution was to make a new line for the label, which sounded great to me, but they did not tell how to do it. After much searching, I figured out how to add an additional line to the label, but my program now refuses to function correctly. I set the middle button before initiating the dialog in my lisp, but when I select a different option, the original button remains selected along with the user's choice. The program actually works, using the last button selected, but I really want the button to respect the pick by the user and deselect the default button.
This worked perfectly when I had only two selections, and it still worked perfectly when I added the third option, but it just doesn't like it when I try to add a new line for the long description in the middle of a radio column.
I'm barely functional with dialog boxes..
DCL in question:
:boxed_radio_column { label = "Location"; width = 20; height = 2; fixed_width = true; fixed_height = true; alignment = top; :radio_button{key = "sl-AD"; label = "Spring Lake Applications";} :text_part{label = " and Distributor Services";} :radio_button{key = "sl-BP"; label = "Spring Lake BP Systems";} :radio_button{key = "gr"; label = "Grand Rapids";} }
lisp has the following in this order:
load dialog - I have a loading function that works fine
(set_tile"sl-BP""1")
(action_tile"sl-AD" "(TGW-Setup_01 $key)")
(action_tile"sl-BP" "(TGW-Setup_01 $key)")
[Code] .....
Of course, these are just the pertinent sections of a much larger setup dialog, but I didn't think I needed to post all the functions that this program is doing, since you'd have a difficult time running this without my templates, printers and a number of support files.
Like I said, it seems to be choking on my adding :text_part { Label = " and Distributor Services";} instead of making this a single line of the label for the button above it.
Why does this cause the default radio button to stop releasing?

I found a lisp in the net to create a rectangle by marking objects in a draw.
But it would nice to get at the end of the lisp after creating the rectangle a output in the command line about the length and with of the created rectangle.
who can add the code for the length/width output?

I have lisp code, which count total length, but I need that it count and multiply by constant which I choose manual (such as in example, total lines yellow length * y + total blue lines * x = ... , example 50*2 + 60 * 3=280),
remember the another code, such as I have d200 with total l=1000 and d250 with total l=1500, i need to count total cost such as 1000*y+1500*x
one think, diameters numbers is not only 1 or 2, it can be many different diameters.

Several times, we generate a drawing, and the text widths in the columns vary greatly. Some have text that is ten characters long, and others have thirty-plus characters.
Is there a way to be able to select the table (or perform the command to all tables in the current layout) and have each of the columns expand to the appropriate width, that depends on the longest string of text in that column, for each column. The problem I see, is that some tables have two columns, some have six, and of course other with any number in between. The same is also true for the amount of rows.

I have the following code, that for some reason the last created dimension is no being selected. That's the first problem. The second (and not as improtant) problem( becasue it does work), is that I'm using the "dimedit" command. I prefer to do a swap within the dxf codes, that I treid but didn't work, so I resorted to the "dimedit" command.
(command "DIMLINEAR" pause pause pause)
(setq last_dim (entsel (entlast)))
(setq oldunits (getvar "lunits")) (setq oldprec (getvar "luprec"))

I'm writing function which will facilitate user to offset dimension. After enter command, he select dimension and select point near one of dimension's arrowheads. Then I'm calculating new XLinePoint1 or XLinePoint2 and replacing original.
I have everything done. I thought ... The problem is when user firstly create AlignedDimension and after that he create RotatedDimension by using continous function. After that XLinePoint1 and XLinePoint2 are not parallel to the DimLinePoint (look at image).
How can I get coordinates of points selected in red rectangles?
I know that one is specified as "dimension line defining point" but what about second? How can I get its coordinates? Or maybe there is other way to get this point?

Looking to make a selection set of points that are on a specific layer, and then create a dimension between, in this case, two points. I feel like it should be very simple, but I can't get it to work for the life of me. Here is the test code I've been playing around with:
(defun c:test (/ sel1 TC)
(setq sel1 (ssget "X" '((8 . "VPOINTS"))))
(setq TC (polar (entget (assoc 10 (ssname sel1 0))) (dtr 180.0) 9))
(command "DIMLINEAR" (entget (assoc 10 (ssname sel1 0))) (entget (assoc 10 (ssname sel1 1))) "V" (polar TC (dtr 180.0) 9) "")
