AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Create A Custom Complex Linestyle For A Stream
Sep 13, 2013I am trying to create a custom complex linestyle for a stream. It's a line with 3 circles/dots. For the dots I want to actually create the circles. I know how to create shapes, compile and load linestyles. For some reason it does not work.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Create A Line With Text Offset
May 6, 2013I am a beginner at LISP and this is a bit out of my league... and I'm trying to create a lisp where I can draw a polyline between 2 points that also places text with the actual distance offset above the line.
I did find this post and I'm not quite catching on.. [URL] ......
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Create A Selection Set Of Y Values Of Text?
May 9, 2013What I am trying to do is create a selection set of the "y" values of text. I've started by pulling out all the text on the drawing, but I need it to continue to grab only the "y" values of the text on the drawing.
(setq alltext (ssget "_x" (list '(0 . "TEXT"))
)
)
I've tried a bunch of different things but I am still new to lisp.
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Create Text Based On Room Dimensions?
Dec 19, 2012make a LISP that will work with my room dimensioning? I'd like to be able to specify the width and depth of the room using a command similar to the "dist" command, and then click a point to place a text based on the distances gathered. I'd also like the text to be formated into architectural units and displayed like this: 12'-0" X 13'-5". Also, if possible, round the result to the nearest inch (to avoid 1/2" and 1/4" dimensions).

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Larger Routine To Create And Rotate Text Based On Object Selected
Dec 29, 2011the expression in question is part of larger lisp routine to create and rotate text based on the object selected and the viewtwist variable (we use dview twist to rotate our views when needed)
So the expression in question:
(< (/ pi 2) ang (* pi 1.5)
where ang is the total angle used to determine proper rotation of the text.
Now the problem. In most cases where ang = 90 (or 1.5708 radians) this works fine. the two exceptions i have encountered
in testing are a line at 70 degress, viewtwist 20, and line at 50, viewtwist 40. For whatever reason at these two conditions the expressoin evaulates True instead of nil and rotates the entire text object incorrectly (180 degrees). So question is how exactly is this being evaluated? i know its comparing ang (* pi 1.5) to (/ pi 2). is there some sort of rounding error? or maybe the expression needs a wee bit more definition? attached image and full lisp routine for reference of what is happening, blue text is angle of the line as created by routine at viewtwist 0.
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Create Two Line MLEADER - Only Get One Line Of Text

Jun 15, 2012I want to create a shortcut key (like TAB) for example and whenever I start a polyline or move or whatever, I can hit TAB which will grab the angle my cursor is at, and then use the angle lock to lock the cmd into that direction. (This is essentially what can be done in rhino if you are familiar with this).
The manual way in autocad is typing it ("<45") but I just want to calculate angle from the start point to cursor point. and then once hitting tab or a key or a new command, it will lock with that angle. How can I go about programming this.

Mar 20, 2013Is it possible to create a lips that does the following:
- In the Modelspace
- Get 2 points to create a plot window / give two points. (get point 1, get point 2, list points)
- Divide the window into A3 size windows
- plot scale 1:100 / prompts to ask
- Plot / Print the A3 size windows with the given / preset configuration(s)
- Perhaps even add a number to each page.
In other words, Plot / Print a A2, A1, A0 or bigger onto several A3 pages.
Depending on how big the page is, number of A3 pages, plotscale 1:100
Or asks what plot scale I want to use.The only thing I think I will need is something like:
Get point 1, get point 2, List the points. So I can set the window.

Feb 15, 2013I have been using one routine very successfully to create a pline in modelspace that has the outline of the chosen viewports in the drawing. This one works great.
Now I am trying add other routines that I've done to better fit my needs. If I use each routine individually at the command line they work, but when I use all in a single command I got the following errors:
The routine SetColor - does not change color to Bylayer The routine RectWidth - ; error: bad SSGET list
Why?
See the attached file for more details and be free to improve whatever you want in my routines because they are very basic.
And, if I am not asking to much, is that possible to not be prompt to select objects? I mean, the routine could automatically select all viewports in the drawing...
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Create A Self-installing Package

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Create Blocks And Name Them In Sequence?
Jul 13, 2012i have created an Autolisp routine that creates a drawing made up of structural members, x-refs & surfaces based on a few different user inputs. I now want the program to insert the drawing as a block rather than individual elements. My Idea was simply to use the block command in the lisp routine to create a block and then have the drawing create itself in block editor, and close once it has done. however I am having difficulty thinking of a way that I can get AutoCAD to automatically name this block depending on other blocks in the drawing, i.e. in sequence. The name is irrelevent really, but it would make sence for it to be logical, so... if the last block inserted was "b7" then the next one should be "b8" and so on.
Is there a better way of doing it all together? I have read a bit into "entmake" but i'm not sure on how to use that function.
