May 22, 2013Someday the light bulb is going off and I will understand mapcar and lambda. However.....I have a program that reads an excel file sheets. Sometimes the sheet only has 1 column, sometimes 2 or more.
I need to convert the saved values from the sheet to a list with the text spaced evenly. Unfortunately the text lengths vary. I would like a subroutine to pass the list to and return a list of strings with text aligned with padded spaces allowing for the longest text in each column. I am using the new list in a dialog box with fixed_width_font=true (so columns align).
Example 1-
(setq List1 (list "Col1-Line1" "Col1-Line2" "Col1-Line3-longer" "Col1-Line4"))
(AlignText List1)
returns
"Col1-Line1"
"Col1-Line2"
"Col1-Line3-longer"
"Col1-Line4"
so no padding needed
Example 2 -
(setq List2 (list (list "Col1-Line1" "Col1-Line2" "Col1-Line3-longer" "Col1-Line4") (list "Col2-Line1-longer" "Col2-Line2" "Col1-Line3" "Col2-Line4")))
(AlignText List1)
returns
"Col1-Line1 Col2-Line1-longer"
"Col1-Line2 Col2-Line2 "
"Col1-Line3-longer Col2-Line3 "
"Col1-Line4 Col2-Line4 "
Example 3 -
(setq List3 (list (list "Col1-Line1" "Col1-Line2-longer" "Col1-Line3" "Col1-Line4") (list "Col2-Line1-longer" "Col2-Line2" "Col1-Line3" "Col2-Line4") (list "Col3-Line1-longer" "Col3-Line2" "Col1-Line3" "Col3-Line4")))
returns
"Col1-Line1 Col2-Line1-longer Col3-Line1-longer"
"Col1-Line2-longer Col2-Line2 Col3-Line2 "
"Col1-Line3-longer Col2-Line3 Col1-Line3 "
"Col1-Line4 Col2-Line4 Col3-Line4 "

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Put Default Text On Command Line For Getstring
Jun 6, 2012I am trying to get a default value (from global variable) put as the default for getstring command. Problem is I want it as if I had typed it into the getstring command so I can modify it if required. It is for entering filenames which only change slightly ie 1129E09LS1 ...LS2 ...XS1 etc.
Current

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: How To Print Last Line Of Command History To A File
Mar 26, 2012I've been killing myself with trying to get the following (acet-getvar '("BNS_EDITTIME_TOTAL")) in standard time format
rather than julian and then printing it to a file. I never found a way. So I'm figuring the next best thing is to just run the edittime command and then set a custom variable to report the last line of the command history. Then I can open a file and print it to the file. But alas my skills are lacking.

Dec 17, 2012Im having a little trouble of late understanding how to undertake an action/ command if nil
what i do know id the following:
(setq TESTvar(findfile "acad.lsp"))(alert TESTvar)
this gives me the path of the acad.lsp, that is provided it actually exists, however because the acad.lsp is not compulsory it may indeed not exist meaning that the command prompt would return the NIL value instead of the pathname.
based upon that I would like to create a new acad.lsp file if not found by autocad.
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Create Command That Will Copy File From One Place To Another?
Jan 7, 2014I would like to create a command that will copy a file from one place to another.
I can do it directly from the commandline like this
But when I try and put it in a command macro in the CUI editor like this
^C^C_shell;copy "c:/temp/drawing1.dwg" "g:/temp";
it does not seem to work. It comes up with this on the commandline
but no copy of the file is made.
How can I get this to work without having to write an external file, such as a script or lisp?

View 2 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Annotation Command Set Correct Layer For Duration Of Command
Nov 21, 2010I 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 :: How To Write Unicode Characters To Text File
Jun 27, 2013I 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"))

Here is a part of my code to test:
