I have a drawing that i know has xdata attached to layer zero. the problem is, it's not an object i can find. Any routine to remove xdata from ALL objects. like a global remove xdata?
View 6 Replieswith a function like this I added some xdata, some MULTILEADER
(defun c:add_xdata () (princ "Select: ") (setq ogg (car (entsel))) (addXdata ogg "TEST" "CODICE" "1256") (addXdata ogg "TEST" "MATERIALE" "LEGNO") (addXdata ogg "TEST" "TIPO" "A"))
Now with the following function can only select leaders who have linked the xdata application TEST
(setq selez_all (ssget "X" '((0 . "MULTILEADER")(-3 ("TEST")))))
I can not, however, find a way to select all MULTILEADER who have a particular value of XData.
For example I would select all MULTILEADER with MATERIALE = "LEGNO" and TIPO = "A".
How can i build a selection set of all circles and then retrieve the xdata attached to them?

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:

I am trying to make this: L:Engineering-208037SURVEYDRAWINGS turn into this: L:Engineering-208037DRAWINGS
I am using the dwgprefix and it returns the first string and i want to make it in the second string as a new variable or replace the old variable so i can use it in a save as routine i am working on.
The problem is sometimes them project number (0208037) will be longer or shorter so i can't use the substr command
I need to remove or replace text after comma in certain comment such as "Rope, approx. 0.3m length" i want to remove the red part
I've another LISP that only remove a fixed length which is not the case i've now.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI need a lisp sub-function that can empty all attributes of a specified dynamic block. The idea being that the specified block contains data that changes often and in order to repopulate the block's attributes with new data to replace the old I wish to just blank out the old data first, because it's possible that the new data may not utilize as many attributes and all of the old data must be removed.
The thing is the block I'm after is on several layouts, CTABs and they all need to be wiped clean.

I have a customized button to draw an ‘ac-arrow’. I created a lisp to create the layer “G-ANNO-LEDR”
if the layer name is not found. The advanced part I would like is:
Current layer: E-ANNO-WIRE
Ac-Arrow Leader: G-ANNO-LEDR
OPTION 1:
If, say I am on current layer “E-ANNO-WIRE” and need to draw my “ac-arrow” leader, and continue working
on the original layer “E-ANN-WIRE” (and have the leader be drawn [remain] on the layer “G-ANNO-WIRE”).
With this option, I have the block “ac-arrow” imbedded in my template drawing file to have the block at hand.
With this option, the layer “G-ANNO-LEDR” will be created IF it is not on the drawing.
OPTION 2:
- Currently be on layer “E-ANNO-WIRE”
- Bring in the block “ac-arrow” from my block library “L:AutoCADSymbols”
- Draw the “ac-arrow” leader which will be on layer “G-ANNO-LEDR” (this layer created IF it is not
on the current drawing).
- After the leader is drawn’
- Be put back to the layer I was, “E-ANNO-WIRE”, and continue working.
The OPTION 2 is what I would really like to have. A while back, I happen to see one like OPTION 2, but I cannot
find it anymore on the users groups. I have been searching for a while now.
Currently, I use the button in my customized toolbar (see image) and have to have the “ac-arrow” block in my drawing and have its layer created in the drawing.
I'd like to have/write a lisp to change all objects on layer "0" to layer "PC - Module"
If possible also;
save the document close the document open next in directory run layer changer program again.
Any script that when ran will set lineweights of a layer based on what color the layer is assigned. For instance if I have 3 lines that are green on 3 different layers. I need the script to change all 3 layers lineweight to .015mm. I have drawings that are inconsistant with layer names so layer translator and methods of that nature will not work because I do not know all the layer names and I have 100 drawings to do this to.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to reduce the drawing file size. This is for uploading the drawings to AutoCAD WS. AutoCAD WS doesn't display or edit a drawing that is over 15MB. Unfortunately some of our drawings are over 15MB even after I have removed the background and others and have purged. I believe the reason why a drawing can be so big has to do with each object (grouped object) has a ton of information on it. For example, the properties of a typical object is like this:
( (-1 . <Entity name: 7ffffbece60>) (0 . "PRCD_FITTING") (5 . "145B6") (102 . "{ACAD_XDICTIONARY") (360 . <Entity name: 7ffffbece70>) (102 . "}") (330 . <Entity name: 7ffffbf59f0>) (100 . "AcDbEntity") (67 . 0) (410 . "Model") (8 . "BON-SupplyMP-3.0-4.0 RECT") (62 . 1) (100 . "CPrcdEntity") (280 . 10) (90 . 601861454) (70 . 24058) (70 . 4567) (280 . -65) . . Skip 3000 lines here for clarity . (90 . 0) (90 . 0) (90 . 0))
You can see from above that the list of properties are huge. All I really need are the visible parts of the object. This means most of the info above are junk.I try to reduce the size of object by exploding all the objects on the drawing. This sort of work in the sense that the file size of a test drawing is reduced from something like 8MB down to 6MB. But I am expecting far more reduction than this. The reason why I expect far more reduction is that the total number of lines of the exploded items of the same object mentioned above is reduced from 3000+ lines to only 300 lines as shown below:
( (-1 . <Entity name: 7fffe8654f0>) (0 . "LINE") (330 . <Entity name: 7ffffa1b9f0>) (5 . "3B11F") (100 . "AcDbEntity") (67 . 0) (410 . "Model") (8 . "BON-SupplyMP-3.0-4.0 RECT") (62 . 1) (100 .

Therefore, I am expecting a 10-to-1 reduction, not just a 1/4 reduction.I am wondering there may be hidden data on the drawing that are left behind after I have exploded the objects. if there is a way to get rid of the hidden data?

i have a small lisp and i would like for it to:
when i invoke the plot command, it will first check if there is a layer state called "Temp"if "Temp" exists, then delete "Temp", then re-create "Temp", then switch layer state temporariliy to "Plot" to plot the file, and then switch back to the "Temp" layer state againbasically, the "Plot" layer state will be set based on how the drawing(s) will plot. if a user makes changes here-n-there in the drawing, when the user wants to plot, the software will save current state as "Temp", plot using the "Plot" state, and switch back to "Temp" state at the end. all i am trying to achieve is to somehow over-write the "Temp" state. below is the LISP.
(command "undefine" "plot")
(defun clot ()
(if (layerstate-has "Temp")
(layerstate-delete “Temp”)
