AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Find All Text In Selected Items And Swap Text
Oct 25, 2012
A program that prompts:"select objects:" then I can select some objects like as text, line, circle,... after that program find all texts in selected items and swap text
swap means: xxx/yyy ===> yyy/xxx ; "/" is a divisor
swap function for one text is here:
(defun c:swap ( / pos ent el txt)
(vl-load-com)
(if(null #div#)(setq #div# "/"))
(setq #div#
(if(=(setq tmp(getstring(strcat "
Divisor character: <"#div#"> ")))"")
#div# tmp
)
[Code]....
but I want a program to prompt me like this:
(prompt "Select objects:")(terpri)
(setq a (ssget '((0 . "TEXT"))))
and gets divisor char </>:
after that:
(setq n (sslength a))
(repeat n
....
)
repeats n times, n=number of texts in my selection

I need a LISP program that prompts: "select text(s)" then I select for example 100 text in open drawing file.
after that this program creat a file (LIST.CSV) and write each selected text in line by line of this file:
result text file (LIST.CSV ) should be:
Text1
Text2
Text3
...
...
Text99

I have a little routine to add two selected numerical texts together and show the result at a selected position. I am using the entsel method to select them. I would like a way to highlight the selected text temporarily. Is this possible. The routine is as follows.
(defun c:T+ ( / Txt1 Txt2 Txt3 Pkt )
;Adds second selected number to first
(setvar "dimzin" 3)
(setq curlay (getvar "clayer"))
(setq curcol (getvar "cecolor"))
(setq curlin (getvar "celtype"))
(setq ds (getvar "dimscale"))
[code]....

lisp routine that will add together the values of text entities? For instance, if I have a big parking lot and each section is labeled with the number of spaces, I could pick the texts and it would add all the numbers together to give me a total. Right now I export to excel to do this. I have quite a few situations where this would be handy, not just for parking spaces, so I really just want a lisp that will add all my selected numbers.

I need a program to trim selected text(s) with a divisor.
suppose that the divisor character is: "/"
(selected text==>result
textL/textR ==> textR
xxx/yyy ==>yyy
t12x/5678 ==>5678
I should use some commands like:
;;;;div="/":
(setq str "xxx/yyy")
(setq pos (vl-string-position (ascii "/") str))
(setq len (strlen str))
(setq RGT (substr str (+ pos 2) (-(- len pos)1))) ;;=text after "/"
but I need a LISP program that:
1-ask user to give a divisor char: (Divisor character: </>)
2-ask user to select text(s) but program should filter selected text(s) with divisor (*/* pattern)
(if (null #div#)(setq #div# "/"))
(if (and
(setq #div# if (= (setq tmp (getstring (strcat "
Divisor character: <" #div# "> ") ) ) "" ) #div# tmp ) )
(setq ss (ssget "_:L" (list '(0 . "*TEXT") (cons 1 (strcat "*" #div# "*")))))
)

Actually I am not a Autocad Lisp person but I need to refer Autocad drawing for my workflow.
Is there a way in Lisp to find a certain, text or attribute in all files in a folder and if the file
contains that text to get the filename written to a txt file.

In order to avoid duplicate text string in different places in the same drawing, I would like to have such a tool to find duplicate text string.
For instance, I want to put numbering of some connection lines, I do not want to have different lines but have same number by mistype.

I'm looking for a lisp routine that can find and replace multileader text.
I want to replace "T." with "T+" and "B." with "B+".
All the multileaders are on layers with a suffix of "-elev".

I have very little knowledge in complex Autolist routines and routine to do the following:
I would like to be able to provide a Prefix and/or Suffix via dialog then pick any line of text or multiple lines of text and have it concentrate. For example: Prefix: First Floor Suffix: M100. I pick the room text on an arch floor plan "Mechanical room" and the second line "100" The result will be "First Floor Mechanical room 100 M100".
But lets take it a final step further; once condensed, I want it added to a perticular tag attribute in a block I inserted.
Example of how I would use it. I insert a symbol for an addressable smoke detector that has several tags; one of them being Location. I would use this routine to gather the information provided by the Arch floor plan and join it with the block attribute for exporting later for use in the Fire Alarm Panel Programming.
attached is a sample block with the attributes.

I am trying to globally find and replace text in Autocad 2000 drawings. If I have a folder containing 10 Autocad files, I want to open every file in that folder, while in each file, search for a certain line of text and replace that text, then close that file, open the next and find/replace text in that file.
I've created an autolisp file that allows me to open all the files in a certain folder, but I can't find any way, either thru autolisp or scripts, to allow me to find and replace text in each autocad drawing without using Autocad's "find" command to manually enter the text when each drawing is open.
I want to setup the autolisp file to accept input up front, save the "old text" and "new text" to variables, then use those variables as the lisp routine is running.
This version was used to automate creating PDF files. The command 'PDF' is a command from another Lisp file.

the 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.

I having real difficulty finding a lisp that will find and replace blocks. There are plenty out there and AutoCAD 2013 and lower has a Find and Replace Blocks. However, the frustrating catch is I can seem to find a routine that will allow me to replace only those blocks that I select with a selection set of my choosing. The built in function replaces all of them and will not let you exclude some. We have PID drawings that we want to replace valves on, but not all valves. We don't want to rename. We don't need to BEDIT the existing block.
1) Pick group of blocks
2) specify a new block that will replace all instances of old block
3) replace inserted block with different block. Leaving others alone.
I'm thinking this should be easy, but my search has failed. The blocks in question are not dynamic or attributed either.

I have two attributes "REVN" and "REVD" in a block "ATT" that I would like to change (globally preferably) to the following.
(1) Existing text to keyboard entry text.
(2) Colour from existing to 10
I am a bit lost in the (command "-attdef" .......)
(defun c:atc ()
(setq rev (getstring "Please enter review"))
(setq dat (getstring "please enter date"))
(command "-attdef" .."ATT".."REVN"....."c" "10")..)
(command "-attdef" .."ATT".."REVD"....."c" "10")..)
)

When I click on an object to retrieve it's extended data, the data keeps writing to the right, it does not return to the next line, when the text approaches the end of the screen. Very difficult to analyze information.

I want to know is there any formula/calculation for the width of text object before creation/insertion? At now I used approximated width size via a simple .
(Defun GetStrWidth (str H W) (fix (*(* H W) (strlen str))));;usage: (GetStrWidth "This is a Text." 2.5 0.8);;H: TextHeight; W: width factor.
I know that for the existed text in drawing I can use textbox command, but for the texts that has not been created, what can I do? Is there any formula/calculation depends on font name, text height and width factor?

3rd party tool which didn't match our scaling needs the file is a fas so I have tried to reverse engineer the whole function using trial and error. The following code works perfect except we need multiple (x amount) lines of text I have at current the M txt function which mimics and is effective for today however we need all lines to be individual.

this code is used to fix specific font but its problem that it will prompt you to select single text
i need to make it to select multiple text so it saves me a lot of time,
;;; Process Individual request
(defun cht_ProcessIndividual ()
(setq sslen (sslength sset))
(while (> sslen 0)
(setq temp (ssname sset (setq sslen (1- sslen))))

I have been searching for some information on how to pass objects into a function so I can mess with their properties. Somehow I haven't been very successful. Anyway...What I want to do is take two items (light fixtures) and swap their positions on the drawing. It seems like it must be really simple, but I'm just not finding the key puzzle pieces to do it. It seems like if I could figure out how to pull two objects into the function (whether by selecting them and running the function or by selecting them after I run the function) I could very easily save the coordinates of one to variables and then just swap them.

I use the bounding box (vla-getboundingbox) to assess parameters of blocks. These blocks have text on some of the faces that extends beyond the simple dimensions of the blocks themselves. I'm wanting to have bounding box ignore the text and can't sort it out. I've tried putting the text on a separate layer and turning it off and freezing it.
I've considered looking at sub entities and filtering out the text but I don't know if there is a solution here or not.

This is a routine that draws a line between duplicate text.
Would it be possible to have the line as bold red p-line so that its easier to identify.
;; This AutoLISP routine examines all the user-selected TEXT and MTEXT items,
;; and draws a line on the current layer between any two that have identical
;; string values.
;; Leading and trailing blanks spaces are ignored.
;; %% modifiers, like %%u, are not ignored.
;; Upper- and lower-case differences are not ignored.
(defun c:fdt () ;;Find Duplicate Text
(prompt "Select text items to examine: ")
(setq ss (ssget '((-4 . "<OR") (0 . "TEXT") (0 . "MTEXT") (-4 . "OR>"))))
(setq n 0)
