AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Rotating Attribute Text Horizontal
Oct 27, 2012
I would like to globally rotate an attributes text to be horizontal. When a block containing and attribute is inserted at a rotated angle the attributes text is of course also rotated - The tag is called circuit so I tried this - need some lisp to alter the size of the text?
(prompt "
Pick your Blocks..")
(setq ss (ssget '((0 . "insert")))
sl (sslength ss)
[Code] ......
having tried this which did not work
(prompt "
Pick your Blocks..")
(setq ss (ssget '((0 . "insert")))
sl (sslength ss)
[Code] .....

I am trying to find a lisp routine that would allow me to rotate single letter text around a central point but keep the text (letters) horizontal as I rotate the letters about that central point. Is there anything out there that could accomplish this.

I run into some issues where i need to change an attribute based on where a block is located on a drawing. I started this routine to select the block, and then select the text that I want to change the block attribute to. It seems like everything is working up until this point. What I want to do is then replace the first selected with the second selection. How would I go about doing that? here's my code so far:
(defun C:uf ()
(if (setq fuse (nentsel "
Select Fuse Attribute: "))
(progn
(setq en (car fuse))
(setq enlist (entget en))
(setq fuseatt(cdr (assoc 1 enlist)) ) ) )
(if (setq mt(car (entsel "
Select Text: ")))
(progn
(setq enlist2 (entget mt))
(cdr (assoc 1 enlist2))
(setq wiren(cdr (assoc 1 enlist2)) ) ) )
)

I have a block "MANAGER" with Two Attributes "CETOP" and "CEBOT" I would like a lisp to replace what ever is in those attributes with defined text, for my purposes "Text1" and "Text2". 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 need to be able to batch process a bunch of title block attributes automatically.
Block Name: Title Block
Tag Name: SH
Currently they come out with just the number 1, 2 , 3 etc I need to add a leading zero ie 01, 02, 03 etc
All the scripts I have will just replace the number with another
I just want to append the zero infront of the existing number
ie the code will need to read the existing number and decide if its less than 10. if it is less than 10, then the code just needs to append the leading 0. if its 10 or over, then do nothing.

I have a lisp function that is updating attribute values on a newly inserted block. The lisp function uses entget to read the attribute. Then it plugs a new value into the assoc 1 using subst, then uses entmod to update the attribute's value. It all works fine except that the attribute loses its style, i.e. assoc 7, somehow. If I do an entget on the attribute right after the entmod the assoc 7 is nil. The symptom on the drawing is that the attribute value is not visible until I close and open the drawing.
This only happens on a newly inserted block on existing drawings. If I close the drawing and reopen it then the lisp function works fine. Or If I insert the same block on a new drawing it all works fine. what would cause the assoc 7 to go missing after an entmod to change the attribute value?

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.

Background: Someone exploded an attribute block and copied it hundreds of times throughout a project, each time changing the Attribute Tag to match the Value they expected to appear in their drawing. The drawing must be xrefed, so the attribute definitions do not appear.
(There is only 1 attribute in the block.)
Proposed Solutions:
1:AutoLISP routine which copies Tag data from Attribute Definition into Value of Attribute Block:
Prompt-Select Attribute Definition
Copy Tag data
Prompt-Select Attribute Block
Paste data into Value
(Allow repeat to speed workflow)(*PREFERRED*)
2:AutoLISP routine which copies Tag data from Attribute Definition into Default Value and creates a new Block:
Prompt-Select Attribute Definition
Copy Tag data
Paste data into Default Value
Create New Block
(Select Multiple Objects)(Creates tons of new blocks which are messy)

I have to go into approx 600 3D Models and rotate them all by 90.
I've just tried to search for a lisp that will do this to all of these files in one directory and can't find one. Something that will do this and save loads of time. I need to do this tonight so that these MEP files will all be ready for tomorrow morning.

Tables do no have a rotation angle. I can find the insert point, but there is no other point to make an angle calculation with.
(setq objTable (vlax-ename->vla-object (car (entsel))))
(vlax-dump-object objTable T)

LISP routine for rotating lines so that text in linetypes always reads from left to right?
I use the QUERY command to create basemaps and often the lines that are imported read upside down or backwards or however you prefer to look at it. Most often, if I look at the XY coords of these backwards lines, the End X coordinate is of a higher value than the Start X coordinate.
Looking for something that would compare the two X coordinates of a line, do some sort of an IF Start X > End X, and if its true, store the XYZ coords of the Start and End in some variable, and swap them.

I am trying to find a lisp that would get an attribute value (tag name = NBR_5) . I'm trying to run a simple routine that would let the user place the value from the titleblock attribute as text on a drawing. I see a ton of articles regarding getting attributes but I am not well versed in programming.

Is there a quick way of getting the value of an attribute?
I have an attributed block called "tp_attributes" and it has and attribute called "OrderNum".
I just want to be able to quickly grab that value.

Say I have a block that contains two attributes, one contains a value that is a number and another contains a value that is letters. I have many of these blocks placed in a drawing, could you create a lisp that would return the sum of the number value and return it to the command line along with the letter value. Something like this:
Sum--------Item
128 RP
389 TD1
2389 SP4

I continue with my problems.....
I get attribute value from block and put it in a list:
(repeat (setq cnt (sslength sset))
(setq attValue (GetAttributeValue (ssname sset i) "tag1"))
(setq attValue2 (GetAttributeValue (ssname sset i) "tag2"))
[Code]...
When I try to put them in a table...
(foreach item lst
(vla-setText mytable
row 0
(last item)
)
(setq row (1+ row))
)
only put one ( attValue2) at column, and i like put 2 values, each one in a column in the same row

I am trying to customize AutoCAd for a special domain where attribute values need to have a type. I can have a clean integrated solution by manipulating the acad.dcl or base.dcl .I am using AutoCAD 2012 . I want to extend the " define attribute" and "edit attribute" dialog boxes to promt the user for a value type when they define an attribute .I can't find the definition for these dialog boxes in acad/ base dcl files. Ideally I want to add another tile definition to these dialog boxes .If that is not possible atleast spawn a different dialog box from the "define attribute " dialog box that will collect the value type from the user.

I am trying to update my Title Block with a LISP routine (As the title implies).
So far, this is what i have...
(defun c:aTest (/ ss att)
(if (setq ss (ssget "X" (list (cons 0 "INSERT")(cons 2 "TB_PARAMOUNT_ELC")
(cons 66 1)(if (getvar "CTAB")(cons 410 (getvar "CTAB"))
(cons 67 (- 1 (getvar "TILEMODE")))))))
(progn
(foreach ent (mapcar 'cadr (ssnamex ss))
(setq att (entnext ent))
[Code]...
The title block, block name is static. The attribute name is static.
My ultimate goal is to copy the value of one attribute and "paste" that into the value of another attribute, and itterate this through the entire project.

I want to edit 1 attribute value in a block to number all my blocks (eg A001, A002, A003...) (example picture attached)
I know about the at tout and at tin but I need a lsp routine that only changes one attribute value without having to double click and go through that.
i attached a lsp routine, how to edit and remove everything except the value part.

significance of extra dxf 1 groups in the entity data of a multiline attribute? I am looking at one for the first time, so I don't know whether or not to expect multiple 1 groups. In the single example I have created there are two and the first one seems to be ignored. Can I count on that being the case all the time? Data for the one I'm looking at follows, and what shows up on the drawing display is only the contents of the second dotted pair with 1 as a key.
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
((-1 . <Entity name: 7ec37d18>)
(0 . "ATTRIB")
(330 . <Entity name: 7ec37d10>)
(5 . "323")
(100 . "AcDbEntity")
(67 . 0)
(410 . "Model")
[code]...

From what I can gather the attributes of a MVBlock are on the Viewblocks inside of it.
With LISP, how can I access these attributes to get and set them?
