AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Polyline Width And Fillet
Feb 5, 2013
I've been searching on and off all morning for a lisp routine, without any luck. I'm trying to draw a pline with a pre determined width (5") and be able to draw unlimited line segments then automatically fillet with a pre determined radius (5").
I wrote this generic macro: ^C^CPLINEWID;5;PL;\\;FILLET;R;5;F;P;LAST; to save SOME time but I want unlimited line segments. Can this be modified or would a lisp be the better route to go?

I have a lips that creates a zero radius fillet.
(defun c:FZ () (setvar "FILLETRAD" 0)(command "_.fillet" "multiple"))
This works great.I would like to expand this by turning the line into a polyline..

I have a bolt program that draws the thickness of a bolts in elevation as a polyline with a global width, what i need is a lisp to then change this lwpolyline to a hatch, ie if global width is 20 and the polyline is 30 long i need to change this to a 20x30 solid hatch, is it possible to get the the global width and length and convert this to a boundary hatch? I need the same thing done for bolts in plan too as the circle is a lwpolyline also.

I have this routine for using a selected arcs rad value as a new fillet rad. If you like, a "match fillet" routine:
;Fillet Copy
;Copies the Radius of an Existing Fillet or Arc;
(defun C:filletcopy ()
(setvar "cmdecho" 0)
(setq c1 (entsel "
Select Fillet to Copy:"))
(setq c1 (entget (car c1)))
(setq rad (cdr(assoc 40 c1)))
(setvar "filletrad" rad)
(princ "
Select Lines:")
(command ".fillet" pause pause)
)
I use the routine loads but could modify so it would pick up the value of a filleted polyline? As it stands it can only select an individual arc. I would like the routine to be able to pick individual arcs and/or filleted polylines, without exploding first, if possible....

I would like to take all the vertices out of a multiple-vertices polyline so that it reduces to just its start and end points, can this be done?

Due to modeling purposes, I need to convert a 3D polyline to a spline. What I have been doing is:
- change polyline fit/smooth to cubic from properties
- convert polyline to spline by typing spline -> object
- method -> fit from properties
You can see the original 3D polyline (green) and the resulting spline (magenta) in the attached drawing.When I zoom in and measure the distance between the two entities at different points along them, at some points the perpendicular distance exceeds 5 millimeters, and I want to ensure the deviation remains under 1 millimeter or even less.
I know I can change the knot parameterization of the spline, and this does work at some locations, but the difference increases at others.Why is there a 5.6 mm difference between the spline fit point and 3D polyline vertex, as measure in the attached drawing?
Now, I can go and manually stretch the fit point to coincide with the vertex. Also, I can add fit points between existing ones to drag the spline closer to the original 3D poly.
However, some of my polys are really long, and it is very time-consuming to do this manually while measuring points along the entities to make sure the distance stays small enough.
how to automate this process? For example a lisp that would maybe take the original vertex points, add say maybe 3 (not too many) new ones between them, and then generate a spline while making sure the deviation is less than the set value of 1mm? I am using AutoCAD 2013.

I have this code to make fillet to a polyline, but the command does not allow specify fillet radius. How I can change the routine?
(defun C:filletv ( / ent ) (setvar "FILLETRAD" 2.500) (if (setq ent (entsel "
Select element near vertex: ")) (command "_fillet" "_P" ent) ) (princ) )

I found this routine [URL]...... that changes the width of an attribute in a block. After use it, I need to use the ATTSYNC to update the other instances of the bloc in my project.
How to modify this lisp that I receive a prompt to choose if the width attribute will be change just in the selected block or in all instances of the block? In that way, I would not have to use the ATTSYNC command each time.

I am using acad 2010. I have a contour generator that uses 3d polylines to make contours. I get depressions or tops where I don't want them. I need a lisp routine that will allow me to adjust the z value only on any 3d polyline. I need to raise or lower the z value at any vertex and repeat if necessary. I don't need to prompt the user- I am the user.

I create contour line in TOPOGRAPH program, and I import these polylines to AUTOCAD. I have to set elevation for each polyline manually, and I waste a lot of time doing that.
So looking for lisp doing that automatically. I mean, invoke the command, set the first elevation and them select the polylines.
e.g. The first elevation is 530. The next polyline that I select is 531 and so on.

For the sake of editing, I sometimes make LWPOLYLINES and convert them to regions so that I can union and subtract and intersect, etc.
then sometimes, like now, I want to work with them like as LWPOLYLINES again.
is there some command I don't know, or some routine or shall I make one?

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?

is there a way to draw a polyline and have autocad clip everything outside of that polyline and discard it so that i end up with a smaller drawing. only the information in that polyline, nothing outside of the polyline

Code below, for labeling polyline areas
It works great for what i want, with 2 exceptions the text is to small and the label is not inserted at the centroid of the polyline, rather it is placed outside the polyline.
i am able to increase the text style by adjusting the dimscale before i run the command, however it would be good if the program could do that automatically, i would like the text to be about 300 units high, and for the label to be placed at the centroid of the polyline
(defun C:AT ( / ss i)

do you know command or lisp that will do new pollyline between two polyline on 1/3 or 1/4 space between them.
I need sommething that would be faster,know is use measure on pollilines then i draw between horizontall polylines on verteks or point new pollyline and then divide it on 4 or 3 parts.

I have to intersect polylines "POLYLINE" and "LWPOLINE" with a line and get all the angles of all segments of the polyline that are intersected.
To do this I used a loop that monitors all the vertices of each polyline to find the two vertices of the polyline segment that intersects the line. Unfortunately, these polylines have thousands of vertices and the processing done in this way takes too long.
With the vlax-curve-getClosestPointTo I could very quickly find the vertex of the polyline closest to that intersected with the line, but I need to find the other vertex of the polyline segment to determine the angle of this.
Another question: is there a quick function that returns the exact point of intersection of two curves (e.g. A line and a polyline, or a line and a circle?

I´m looking for opportunities to can modify a polyline with 4 or more segments in a polyline with arc. I think it´s possible to pick start and end segment first and than all straight segments to will be in arc segments.

Creating a ribbon for Partial Customization files in the CUI, and I am trying to setup some buttons for existing polylines for example underground electric and overhead electric. When writing the macro what are some ideas for creating a polyline with the proper linetype for that particular object rather than changing the layer in layer properties dialogue.

I have to go through quite a few drawings and extract the attribute vales of the whole drawing and then a subset contained within a couple of polylines.
The whole drawing is Ok as I can use at out or the data extraction, but its the ones contained within a polyline. How do I do that?

I need to be able to grab all polylines and change global width at once. This is a repetitve task that i have created a button for. I am trying to use this but it is not working. It gets hung up on me wanting to manually select the polylines when i thought i grabbed them with the first line.

What is the best way to change the color of two pieces of specific text in lisp? I want to change where it says (strcase ln6) & (strcase ln7) to the color of green. I tried it a couple of different ways but I'm having some trouble. First I am setting the current layer with a color of blue. I am then running the text command a couple of times. I want to run the mtext command a couple of times but I want the text to be green & I want the width factor to be .85

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 am writing a routine that will place a piece of text at a specified point along a polyline. My problem is to determine the angle for the text. It needs to be the same as the segment of the polyline that it falls on. Just can't get my head around how to get that angle?
I can get a list of the vertex point of the polyline, but how do I determine the segment the point falls on?
