I have a window schedule lisp routine that places a 6-sided polygon around text that label each window. I want to change the code so that its a circle instead of a polygon. Here is the code line that needs to be modified:
(command "polygon" "6" "fro" (cdr (assoc 10 (entget templine)))(strcat "@38,-" (rtos (+ (* linecount 18) 14) 2 0)) "C" "6")
I need a lisp that creates a polygon of N points, so to enter a only the distance between these points, after choosing N points in the drawing for approximately creating polygons.

I would like a simple routine that even I can understand so I can apply it to a couple of other lisp projects I have.

I'd like to get areas from all closed loop polygons of my drawing and save them.
From my point of view, the function would be to:
- hatch every polygon of my drawing
- for each hatch do
- extract area and put it in an array with the variables (name of polygon and area).
And then is it possible to save it in a DWG or DXF file in order to reuse these areas by another program ?
I have this old lisp routine that I have been using for quite a while and it works and loads just fine, however I would like to open it to see/edit the code... when I open in Notepad however it opens with wierd symbols... How to get this back into normal text?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI want to change a lot of table cell text in one time, try to explain something.
In the front of my drawings i have a view tables. in the second column stays a code that represent a location.
e.g. LVC stays for Low voltage cubicle. Now it is my intention to substitute these code to the description of code in one time and only the second column. The several descriptions are written in an .txt file, like LVC;Low voltage cubicle and on the next row LVP;Low voltage panel, and so on.
I think it is only possible with Lisp? or there are other way?
In the past i did it one by one, because mostly there where 2 or 3 tables, now i have a big project with more than 20 tables.
I'd like to run one command that allows the user to draw a polygon viewport then sets that VP to 1/8"=1'-0".
It can be nearly accomplished with a macro, but falls just short because the polygon vp requires an unknown number of clicks, so there is no way to know how many pauses for user input in the macro.
Breaking objects intersecting with a polygon and erasing them with an option outside/inside,
I couldn’t find out a single lisp file that can
Break all objects intersecting with a particular polylineAnd then erase objects with an option to choose inside/outside objects

im my current coding project im attempting to change the font stlye of 1 text item
i tried used the simple method of
[code]
(command "STYLE" "simplex" "ARIAL" "" "" "" "" "")
[/code]
however, using this changes the text's font in the whole drawing
i searched the forums here and everything i found either didnt work or changed all the text.
is there a more elegant way of doing this with just a selected text item and not the text in the whole drawing?
How would I go about this. if a two blocks or polygons are overlapping area?
A good method or the algebraic formula for a function to tell me if a point is inside a polygon or block's area?
I really need a auto lisp that do lines/polyline on line edges creating a polygon like the example.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI was looking for a post on the subject of line and circle intersections and found one that Bill Z had posted. I decided to incorperate one of the replies into my own code. In particular Luis Esquivel's code. With some minor modifications I was able to add the onseg argument that extends intersection points for the line to the circle. I also modified it to return only one point or two points depending on the line and circle supplied and the onseg argument. It seems to work great.

View 6 Replies View RelatedCan a AutoLISP command be written to read an attribute in a block and draw a circle with the attribute as the diameter using variables? The appilcation is taking the diameter of a tree trunk (the attribute), multipling by 12, and drawing the canopy circle on hundreds of those blocks. So the circles drawn will vary in size.
Not sure how this could be set up, i'm not familiar with LISP writing at all.
1) Read block, single, mulitple or definition?
2) Read Attribute
3) Varaible of attribute, (attribute is an inch measurement...it needs to be multipled by 12 to get feet for final use as circle diameter drawn)
4) Draw circle, variable, with diameter coming from attribute variable (attribute in inches that is multipled by 12)
5) Center point or circle to be block's base point
I´m triyng to do a autolisp routine to calculate the perimeter of a drawing with several entities like arc, polyline, spline, lines and circles.
In the web i found out a autolisp routine that calculate this but it doesnt recognizes circles.
I need that the circles can be recognized, does some one knows how i can do that?
You have a dwg with multiple sets of different blocks and a circle you want to place on the insert point of each set blocks.
You select the circle then select one of the blocks in the set and the circle is placed on the insert point of each of the blocks in that set. It would save time from doing it manually and save on mistakes.
I'm trying to change a routine i just wrote that draws 3d pipes. I wanted to make it so that when a user selects the beginning point and ending point of the pipe, the LISP changes the ucs to that vector, draws the circle at the beginning point and extrudes it to the second point.
It actually works great except when the ucs changes, so do my user points because of teh origin change. Is there a better way I might get this to do what I wnat it to?
(setq ip (getpoint "
Pick First Point:"))(setq ep (getpoint "
Pick Second Point:"))(command ".ucs" "za" ip ep)(setvar "osmode" 0)(command ".circle" ip "d" od)(command ".extrude" (entlast) "" (distance ip ep))(command ".ucs" "w")(setvar "osmode" oldsnap))

I don't need to prompt the user- I am the user.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn our Structural department, we use a layer called S-35-WALL-LB to denote a load-bearing wall, and what the guys typically do when they are on the sheet showing the floor above, is dbl-clk the VP to activate model space, open the Layer Manager and change the VP linetype to HIDDEN to show the afore-mentioned loadbearing walls as walls under.
way to accomplish this through a viewport...but instead of using the Layer Manager, use a lisp routine I can link to a toolbar button where all the user has to do is dbl-clk the VP, press the toolbar button, and either it will convert the default VP linetype (continuous) for S-35-WALL-LB automatically, or get the user to select an object on that layer and it changes the whole lot?
take a look at the test.dwg it contains a block named 'box' (which is a rectangle) and some attributes. the annotation scale is 1:1 and i zoomed in to focus on one attribute.
change the annotation scale to 1:2 and you will see the attribute grows by 2 - that's ok! now load attmod.lsp and run attmod command and you will see the attribute grows again by 2
even the command only (entmod) the attributes without making any change.(to restore it use battman sync)Is there a workaround to this bug?
Looking for starting point to writing a routine that will open blocks in a drawing and change the colour.We receive drawings from clients with their blocks and would like to have them changed to our company colours.
So basically, i am looking for something that would within a drawing, change every block to a specific color without exploding and redefining. The colour changes will be the same throughout new drawings.

We need to run the lisp on a lot of drawings (exported from Revit) so I need to use the script to run this lisp on multiple drawings.

the sum has to be devided with 1000000 so that it is in m2.

I have been filtering through this descuession group for a whil this morning looking for what I need and have found somethings that are close but haven't managed to change them a little to do what I am wanting..
I have drawings with a block named UG101 and has been inserted on all sort of different layers.
What I would like to do is run a lisp routine that would select all blocks with the name UG101 and put them on the layer CableInfo.
I have many other blocks that i need to do the same to but with different names, so I was hoping, I could change the lisp routine around to do the rest of the blocks in the drawing..
