AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Convert Polylines Into Double Lines With Hatch

Feb 10, 2012

I need a function that allows to convert the polylines selected with a width globalize defined in a double closed line (spaced by the same width of the polyline), with a hatch inserted automatically defined.

Brilliant idea to draw raceways quickly: instead of making handmade double lines, connect, enter the hatches all by hand, you could quickly draw the polyline with width identical to the size of the duct, and then the lisp transform it into a duct more aesthetically pleasing if compared to the full polyline!

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Create New Double Line From Centerline According To Specific Distance

Jan 9, 2014

I have double line pipe drawings but i have to change distances between of this lines in entire drawing and i was thinking that maybe there is a lisp code which can create new double line according to my specify dimensions ...

example :

    Distance between lines : 100 mm

    ------------------------

    ------------------------

here is what i want to do :

1. select double line

2. specify new distance ( for example 200 mm)

3. lisp will create center line middle of the selected lines ( maybe it can ask me that this center line will be permanently or not )

4. lisp will create new double line from this centerline according to my specific distance

5. new double line layers will be the same with selected old double line

and this lisp has to work for double arc or quarter circles too.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Change VP Linetype

Nov 8, 2012

In 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?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Extract Linetype From DWG File

Sep 12, 2013

I've got a linetype that's part of our autocad template file and has been for so long that nobody around here even knows where the original line file is.

I need to extract the linetype out so that I can make some minor modifications.  I did do a search and found a nifty lsp routine from Paul Turvill.  (Here's the thread that pointed me there:  [URL] ..........

I ran it and it SEEMED to work.  All the linetypes in the file it created look good EXCEPT for the one I needed to extract. That one looks like this in the line file:
 
*TREELINE,Series of arcs used to indicate tree drip lines
A,0.0001,-0.0001,

The linetype DOES display properly in the dwg file (meaning lines drawn using it look good).

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Color And Linetype Modified By VPLAYER

How can I get the color that a layer has assumed in an specific viewport, and the same for an specific Linetype when it changed with an VPLAYER command

I found a function LM:GetOverrideData ( layer / data )  ;; © Lee Mac 2010

but return me the same data if I hask about an specific layer in all vports, and in one of them the layer color is modified.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Rename Layer And Change Linetype

Jun 24, 2009

I need to do three things in a LISP routine for around 200 drawings. First, I need rename lots of old layer to new standard layer name, like change layer name "CL-RAILWAY-0" to new layer name "CL-0".

Secondly, I need translate some layer to standard layer, like all the things on layer "CL-WATER-160" to layer "CL-0"

Last, change some linetype, like change linetype"CENTER" to "CENTERLINE". I can do all those things by "CHECKSTANDARD" manually, but I really need someway faster and easier.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Converting Objects Of Certain Linetype To A New Layer

Oct 26, 2012

I would like converting all objects that has forced linetype to be on a linetype layer.

So if there are objects that have forced linetypes - dashed/hidden/phantom, etc., those entities would be moved to a linetype layer based on their forced linetype.   The entities would all be changed to color bylayer, linetype bylayer.

So if there is a rectangle that is sitting on an EQUIPMENT layer, the routine would put that rectangle on a new layer called DASHED and change its forced linetype to BYLAYER.

Lastly, once that's done, the next and final step is to locate a the existing layers with matching linetype - say, OBJECTS with DASHED as a linetype, and merging it to that layer.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Getting Shapes In Custom Linetype To Reside In Drawing

Sep 17, 2013

I have a client who requested some complex custom linetypes. (line - shape - line)

I built the shapes and stored them in my ltype.shp file, and compiled that to ltype.shx. Then I added the custom linetypes in my acad.lin file. So everything works on my machine with no problem. However, when I send the drawing to someone else, the linetype works, but the shapes are left out. My guess is that since her ltype.shx file does not contain my new shapes, the lines are just drawn without them.

Is there a way that I can have those linetypes, complete with shapes, ride along inside/embedded the dwg file?

And before you ask, no, it's not an option to provide the client with the shx file that contains these shapes. I'm one of many different people in many different companies that might work on these drawings in the future and there's just no way that they'll be able to send an shx file along with the drawing every time someone new needs to work on it.

Example, after i select a certain entities in a drawing, with LISP, it will change all the object to layer "0"?

Additionally, u also need it to change all selected entities that are in "dashed" linetype to be change to "hidden" linetype..

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Change Color And Linetype Of Xref Nested Entity

Aug 22, 2012

I have a Lisp that I have been working on with some folks in the office, and i feel like i am close, but i am not getting the cigar. The idea would be to have the lisp allow the user to select a nested x-ref entity, and change the color and linetype of the selected layer, similar to the old "LAP" command (I know it is a dinosaur, but I still miss it). I seem to be doing swimmingly, code I have quasi-plagiarized. It seems to crap out where i try to pass the selected linetype back to the layer. I get the nastygram "Command: ; error: no function definition: GETLINETYPE" right after selecting the linetype from the dialog.

Code below...

x(defun c:CX (/ Sel EntList DataList cnt Num ClrNum EntData)
(if (setq Sel (nentsel "
Select object to change layers color and linetype: "))

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Double-Click Attributes To Edit With ATTIPEDIT

Any way to customize the double-click of a block attribute to run the _ATTIPEDIT command on the targeted attribute? I know this can be achieved by holding Ctrl & then double clicking, but I am often using my hand else where on the keyboard, or even more often, when entering many values into attributes, I am using my left hand to keep my place on a sheet of paper as I scroll down it and enter in the values.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Converting Double To String Creates Inaccuracy?

Aug 6, 2013

I have this interresting problem, it occured just here, in other situations, the script works fine.

I am counting length from coordinates:

 Command: (setq bod1 ppo_bod1)(-0.821965 -1.7232 0.0)Command: (setq bod2 ppo_bod2)(25.428 13.1268 0.0)Command: !mfac0.025Command: (setq x (atoi (rtos(/ (abs (- (car bod2) (car bod1))) mfac))))1050Command: (setq y (atoi (rtos(/ (abs (- (cadr bod2) (cadr bod1))) mfac))))593Command: (- (cadr bod2) (cadr bod1))14.85Command: (/ (abs (- (cadr bod2) (cadr bod1))) mfac)594.0Command: (rtos(/ (abs (- (cadr bod2) (cadr bod1))) mfac))"593.99999998"Command: (atoi (rtos(/ (abs (- (cadr bod2) (cadr bod1))) mfac)))593
 
As you can see, the conversion from 594.0 (real) to string causes an inaccuracy, which is strange, because the length really is 594.0

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Double Clicking To Edit Text In Paperspace

Oct 9, 2013

I've trying to track down a solution for an issue that we are experiencing. When some of our lisp programs get run, you can no longer double click on text to edit it in paper space. If I put text in model space, I am able to double click to edit it. Is there a variable for this?

I just verified something else, if I move the text to be outside of the View Port, I can double click to edit the text. If I try to double click to edit while inside the viewport then it switchs to model space withing the viewport.
