Jul 15, 2013I have a list -
(setq List1 (list "Line A" "Line B" "Line C"))
I would like to add each item in an existing list to a new list -
(setq ListNew (list "This is some text" "This is more text"
the following is the part I can't figure out - it just adds the list to the list, not the individual items
(mapcar '(lambda (x) x) List1)))
I am looking for ListNew to be - (a list with 5 strings)
"This is some text"
"This is more text"
"Line A"
"Line B"
"Line C"

Nov 21, 2010I am currently writing a series of routines for setting the layers for text, leaders and dimension commands. The end goal is a system where any annotation command sets the correct layer for the duration of the command, then reverts back to the layer that was active before the command.
I have managed to complete all the code, and it appears to be working fine, I just have one question: I have used -layer "m" "Lay_name" etc... for all layer setting commands, rather than any code to see if the layer exists already. In my limited testing this seems to be suitable, nothing that exists on that layer seems to be affected.
I know how to write code to determine if the layer exists already and set the layer instead, but so far it seems unnecessary??

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: List To String

I have a list of a bunch of descriptions that looks like this:

What I am doing is grabbing the middle item and i need to break this up into 2 lines. So, my code below grabs the first 3 "words" in the second item in the list and puts them in a list, but I need to convert this back to a string.
(setq desc6a (list (car (read (strcat "(" (cadr input6) ")" )))(cadr (read (strcat "(" (cadr input6) ")" ))) (caddr (read (strcat "(" (cadr input6) ")" )))))
I tried a bunch of ways but can't get it

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Appending Associative List

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Subtracting List From A Variable
Sep 17, 2013I've created a list and want to subtract all the values within it from another variable, and assign it to a new variable. How do I do it?
Basically, I ask for ground level (assigned to variable G1), and then any number of depths beneath that (assign to list LVLLIST), and I want to return the value of the bottom point. So it's all the values in LVLLIST added together and subtracted from G1. And assign it to a new variable BASE.
For example,
G1 = 650.00
LVLLIST = (1.23 23.26 0.13 50.23)
(setq BASE (- G1 LVLLLIST))

Dec 5, 2012I have the following string of code, that I'll write in everyone's start-up suite. I'm able to retrieve a list of files I want to modify, for whatever reason. (One example, when plotting drawings with layouts, sometimes the shadeplot setting is wireframe, and not classic hidden, though it's been set up in our templates).
The huge question is, can I get a list of drawings to a variable in one drawing, and have access to that variable list, in the next drawing I open? I'll iron out the bugs on read-only statuses, or manipulating drawing states later.
(defun GetDrawings ()

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Error In While Command
May 22, 2013We have a lisp routine that I co-authored ages ago and then haven't done much programming in about 7 years. I seem to have forgotten much of my language skills. This portion of the lisp routine was running fine in autocad 2005 which is what the computer had on it, and it doesn't run on autocad 2010.
I've narrowed it down to the while statement which is why you see it commented out, but that portion is necessary. My main question is was there a change in the language specifically the while statement between 2005 and 2010?
; GET LINES OVER 10" AND THROW OUT (if (= (cdr(assoc 0 outerinfo)) "LWPOLYLINE") (progn (setq remlenouter 0.0) (setq numseg (cdr(assoc 90 outerinfo))) (setq edd (member(assoc 10 outerinfo) outerinfo)) (setq n1 0) ;(while (< n1 (- (* numseg 4) 4)) ;(setq dist (distance (cdr(nth n1 edd)) (cdr(nth (+ n1 4) edd)))) ;(if (>= dist edmmax) (setq remlenouter (+ remlenouter dist))) ;(setq n1 (+ n1 4)) ;) ; end while (setq dist (distance (cdr(nth n1 edd)) (cdr(nth 0 edd)))) (if (>= dist edmmax) (setq remlenouter (+ remlenouter dist))) ) ; end progn ) ; END IF
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Looping A Command
Aug 26, 2013I am using AutoCAD 2011. I have a lisp that I have created/modified.
What it does:
Allows me to Select a layer that I call out and change its color properties back to bylayer.
(i primarily use this when i am cleaning up my drawings, I turn them all to gray with another command i have then i run this one to find all the entities on that specified layer)
What i am trying to do:
I would like this command to do a loop. So say i type in a layer name that does not exist, instead of running through the rest of the command i want it to revert back to "specify layer name" until the correct name is entered for that layer.
Here is the lisp:
(defun cLL ()
(setq varLayer (getstring t "
Specify Layer Name: "))
(sssetfirst nil (ssget "X" (list (cons 8 varLayer))))
(command "change" "p" "" "p" "c" "bylayer" "")

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Check For Last Command
Jan 8, 2014We have developed processes, standard operating procedures, work instructions (whatever you want to call it) for several tasks we do on a regular basis. More importantly, tasks that we don't do on a regular basis. On some processes, performing certain commands is a critical step in the quality of the product. I have also developed a lot of lisps to streamline these processes. Of course there are commands that just don't make sense to try and include into existing lisps.
The problem we're having though, is that people are not following the processes. I don't know if they think they are smarter than the process, or if they don't understand the process, or if they are just complacent.
One of the things that would really work to get everyone to follow the process, is to have my lisp routines check to see what the last entry at the command line was.
For example, if one of my lisps depended on the drawing be saved, well, instead of putting the save command in the lisp, sometimes it would be beneficial to check to see if the drawing was saved in the first place. Kudos to those who do follow the process, they do save the drawing, and then run the lisp. On rather large files, I would prefer not to save the drawing twice, back to back.
There are a lot more benefits to checking to see what the last user entry was, in a certain drawing.
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: DCL Command Locking Up
