AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: No Function Definition With Distance Function
Oct 25, 2013This seems absolutly silly.
(setq p1 (getpoint))
(setq p2 (getpoint))
(setq Dist (distance p1 p2))
Why does this not work?
I'm trying to build a command to replace AutoCAD's "DI" command, to give distance and delta x, y, and z values in decimal and imperial, and keep the angles in XY plane and out of XY plane.

i found simple dcl - lisp codes , there is possibility for calling simple cad commands , but this is different about call lisp with buttons
which code i have to change and how for set my lisp on radio buttons ..
here is the sample codes ...

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Expire Date For A Function
Nov 27, 2012I want to define en expiration date in registry, after that date the some LISP programs does not allow to run. I think that suitable commands are SetEnv and GetEnv.
define a ExpDt variable that contains Expiry Date as a string. And add some statements inside of the LISP program to call this variable and check it with today's date.
I should define once time in autocad:
(setenv "expdt" "130101"); YYMMDD date for validation period (2013.01.01)
and check this every time that a lisp program should be execeute:
(getenv "expdt") ; if today's date(with YYMMDD format) ">" expdt then lisp program doen not allow to run and should be halted.
for e.g. on 2013.02.28: "130228" > "130101" ==> so the lisp function should be halted and will not work!
(without any alert or message)
a sample list function: (how can implement on this lisp function?)
(defun c:3()
(setq w t)
(while w
(setq a (getpoint "
pick point:"))
(setq p1 (list (- (car a) 0.5)(- (cadr a) 0.5)))
(setq p2 (list (+(car a) 0.5)(+(cadr a) 0.5)))
(command "erase" "w" p1 p2 "")
(command "INSERT" "*3" a "" "" "0")
)
(if (= a nil)(setq w nil))

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: How To Define A Function With Negligible Arguments
Jun 25, 2013I prepared a code to calculate number of days between two date.
I want to know how can I define negligible arguments for my lisp routins. It means if I omitted the arguments, lisp code can handle it without any errors ("; error: too few arguments")
In this case, my program defined as: (TotalDays 1st_date 2nd_date)
(TotalDays 1978 03 21 2013 06 25)
and I want to have flexibility: if I use this routine as (TotalDays 1978 03 21), the program should substitute today's date with second date.
I know if I put "nil" instead of date for 2nd_date, It will not be an error, because:
(if (and y2 m2 d2) (setq n2 (GetJDN y2 m2 d2))(setq n2 (fix (getvar "DATE"))))
but that's not my favourite!, how can I omitted 2nd_date completely? as (TotalDays 1978 03 21)
Here is my lisp

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: STRNUM Error - No Function Definition
Jan 10, 2012I D/L a lisp file (setvars.lsp) that purports to give a list of system variables that match a short string entered in a dialog box.
Unfortunately, an error arises that says 'error : no function definition: STRNUM'
I've looked at the code and can't tell what the writer was hoping to achieve.
The specific section is as follows:
(if F1
(progn
(setq RL (read-line F1))
(while RL
(if (and (wcmatch (strcase RL) (strcase (strcat "*" DESCR1 "*")))
(wcmatch (strcase RL) (strcase (strcat "*" DESCR2 "*")))
[Code] .........
There is no other mention of STRNUM in the whole of the lisp.
There is an accompanying setvars.dat, wherein apparently, the writer compiled a data file of all the system variables in AutoCAD2008, each variable being followed by an '=' and then a description of the variable.
If necessary I can post the whole lisp and dat file, but was hoping to discover the intention from the above extract and therfore where I might work out an alternative to this line.
Looking to turn a string to a real? If so, why are there two 'arguments' following the 'function' STRNUM?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Commands Not Finishing After Calling Script Within Function
Nov 15, 2013I have a simple lisp function to add a scale axis to a drawing by calling a script, renamed the drawing by appending "withScale" to the file name, and then closing the file. I placed a call to the function in the acad.lsp file in the startup suite. The idea was to batch process all files by simply opening them. Upon open the startup acad.lsp file runs, which calls my lisp function, which in turn calls the scale script. It should then execute the renaming, saving, and closing commands. The problem is that it is calling the script fine and renaming the file, but it does not save the changes before closing. Here is the lisp function
(defun saveScale(); (command "-purge" "all" "" "n")(if (findfile "C:/Users/Russell/Desktop/TreeFiles/Automation/Scale&Key.scr")(command "_script" "C:/Users/Russell/Desktop/TreeFiles/Automation/Scale&Key.scr")); end if (command "_.zoom" "e") (command "_saveas" "2013" (strcat (getvar "dwgprefix") (vl-filename-base (getvar "dwgname")) "withScale.dwg")) (command "close") ) (saveScale)
Apparently you cannont run any lisp commands after calling a script, however the renaming still follows through.
I've attached the script file as well. (I couldn't attach .scr format so you may need to rename it).

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Return To Calling Function After Trapping Error In Subroutine
Mar 13, 2012I've got a subroutine that gets the centroid of a closed polygon (lwpoly). It appears to fail if the polygon has any zero length line segments. I've added a trap that catches the error and "highlights" the offending polygon, but it stops there and does not return to the main function that called the subroutine. Is there a way to get back to the main function from the trap?
Here's the subroutine (original function by _gile (Autodesk LISP Forum 9-18-2006):
(defun return-centroid (lwpoly space / obj Region Centroid)
(setq *error* trap1)
(setq obj (vlax-ename->vla-object lwpoly))

For example if I was to offset a line I would type in "5.75/2" and get 2.875. I would like to be able to do this without having to type ( / 5.75 2).
Is there a way to do this without having to type all of that.
