AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: How To Put Multi-lines Of Text Into Drawing Info Comments

Dec 19, 2011

I am able to insert multi line text into the Drawing Properties Summaryinfo standard field "comments" by using  string concatenation in VBA by using "mytext" & vbLF & vbCR "mytext".

But I can't find a way that works in autolisp. This code does not work.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Editing Multi Leader Text Insertion Point

Nov 16, 2012

Is there a way to modify the text insertion point of multileaders using lisp? We have a problem with some of our multileaders getting a landing distance set to a negative value.  My lisp routine will correct these to a default value, but then the text jumps a bit.  If I could get the insertion point prior to changing the landing distance then I could restore that point after changing the landing distance.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Go From TEXT And LINES To TABLE?

May 6, 2009

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.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Multi-line Tooltip For Icons?

Feb 24, 2013

I have some my own Icons on my Toolbar in Autocad that prepared by myself,

I can define tooltip for those icons by "Description" property of icons in CUI.

so, how can I define multi-line tooltips for my own icons? or even graphical tooltip?!

should I use "Zammel" language?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Entmake Insert With Multi Line Attributes

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Attributed Multi Block Insert From Custom DCL

Dec 27, 2011

I have been working on an AutoLISP routine which is intended to:

1) collect input from the user via a DCl dialog box

a) Create a List of the non-null "GROUP_CODE..." variable values collected from the dialog's settings

b) Create a List of the "ESN***#_Part" variable values collected from the dialog's settings (does the List elements' order need to be reversed after collecting them?)

2) Prompt the user to select an insertion point

3) Insert a Block named "ESN-CONTROL-WIRED" which has multiple attributes

a) Apply the first List element collected at step 1.a above to the attribute tag "INPUT_ADD" in the block

b) Apply the first List element collected at step 1.b above to the Attribute Tag "PART_NUMBER" in the block

4) Insert a second instance of the Block named "ESN-CONTROL-WIRED" below the first instance

a) Apply the second List element collected at step 1.a above to the attribute tag "INPUT_ADD" in the block

b) Apply the second List element collected at step 1.b above to the Attribute Tag "PART_NUMBER" in the block etc. .... keep inserting the block "ESN-CONTROL-WIRED" below the previous on until all the input from the dialog has been displayed in the attributes. 

Notes:

The Dialog's pop-up lists are populated from external .TXT files which reside on our network (or alternate local C: drive folder if no network drive is found)

Inside the file "ESN_SENSORS_NUMBER.LSP", it is the function "ESN_APPLY_TAG" which I am struggling with how to write...

find inside the .ZIP file:

- (2) example screenshot .BMPs showing dialog box settings and what the resulting output in AutoCAD should look like

- (1) ESN_SENSORS_NUMBER.LSP

- (1) ESN_SENSORS_NUMBER.DCL

- (1) ESN_SENSORS_NUMBER.DWG with a sample output - and the definition of the block ESN-CONTROL-WIRED

- (1) ESN-OCC.txt  which populates the PopUp List Boxes

- (1) ESN-DAYLT.txt which populates the PopUp List Boxes

- (1) ESN-IR.txt which populates the PopUp List Boxes

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Available For Angle Between Two Lines?

Nov 28, 2011

i know DIMANGULAR command will let me draw a dimension to display the angle between two lines, but is there a way for my commandbar to show me what the angle is rather than draw a dimension?

I often want to simply know the angle but not display it in the drawing, and it'd be good if there was a command/lisp which showed me in the command line area, or perhaps a pop up window, similar to what the TLEN lisp does here: URL....

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Routine For Rotating Lines

Jul 23, 2013

LISP routine for rotating lines so that text in linetypes always reads from left to right?

I use the QUERY command to create basemaps and often the lines that are imported read upside down or backwards or however you prefer to look at it.  Most often, if I look at the XY coords of these backwards lines, the End X coordinate is of a higher value than the Start X coordinate.

Looking for something that would compare the two X coordinates of a line, do some sort of an IF Start X > End X, and if its true, store the XYZ coords of the Start and End in some variable, and swap them.
