AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: How To Use It For Drawing Lines Between Two Points
Aug 19, 2013how to use AutoLISP to draw lines between two points. I have x,y,z coordinates for the end points in an excel sheet which I can save as a text file. I need to pull the coordinates from the file and use them to draw the lines. There are 2000+ lines so it is not feasible to draw them manually.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: How To Put Multi-lines Of Text Into Drawing Info Comments
Dec 19, 2011I 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.
(defun c:FillComments (/) (vl-load-com) (setq acadObj (vlax-get-acad-object)) (setq acDoc (vlax-get-property acadObj 'ActiveDocument)) (setq acDocSumInfo (vlax-get-property acDoc 'SummaryInfo)) (setq *customer* "MyCustomerName") (setq *location* "MyLocation") (setq *project* "MyProject") (setq*comments* (strcat *customer* ", " (chr 10) (chr 13) *location* ", " (chr 10) (chr 13) *project* ) ;_ end of strcat ) ;_ end of setq (vlax-put-property acDocSumInfo "Comments" *comments*) (princ)) ;_ end of defun
The text comes in but all on one line.
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Flatten 3d Object To 2d
Mar 15, 2013I am trying to write a simple (or at least I thought it was) code to flatten a 3d object into a 2d shape. For some reason after ACAD runs the lisp it recognizes the flatten command but it will not select all. this is what I have:

I have even tried the pick first command, to select all then run the flatten command but that still doesn't work.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Go From TEXT And LINES To TABLE?
May 6, 2009The 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.

Jul 23, 2013LISP 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.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Divide Big Region On Lines Intersections
Oct 2, 2013I need a easy way to create a lot of small regions, or divide a big region in lines intersections, or a fast way to pick points inside objects.
Its like that:
imagine that you do 100 horizontal lines and then 100 vertical lines. Now you have 10.000 squares. i need a fast way to make a region in each one of then.
So its too much trouble to pick points inside each one of then. i need to divide a big region or a fast way to create Plines or objects with the little squares. And i cant use array because they aren t regular squares.
Its something that i do often, its not a one time thing. This is necessary in structure analysis modeling, i export this dwg to a dxf file, that i use on a finite element program.
i never did a lisp before.
