AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Xref Reactor Object ID To Xref Name
Oct 2, 2012I am using (trying to anyway) a :VLR-xrefSubcommandReloadItem reactor. My only question is how to get the xref/block name from the 'reactor callback data' Object ID.
I am ultimately trying to pass it to (vla-get-xrefdatabase ....), but I cannot figure out how to turn the second parameter from the reactor callback data into something I can use - for example the second parameter returned may be "65" or some other number.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Open Xref In Selected Layout And Zoom To Match View?
May 28, 2013I have used Autocad since 1991, and my current job required me to use Microstation. One feature I liked from Microstaiton is the ability to select and open an external DGN reference, and then match the view of the parent DGN. In AutoCAD, you can also select and open an xref, but the DWG opens to the previous saved view, and not to the desired view that matches the layout.
My thought was to experienting with lisp or scipt and export the "Viewctr", "Viewtwist" and "Viewsize" variables to a text file, then importing the text file and using the "Viewtwist" as my "SNAPANG" value, then "Viewctr" as my "ZOOM, CENTER" value, and finally the "Viewsize" as the "Enter magnification or height:" value.
But, alas, have no time, and not quite the knowledge to duplicate MicroStation's open-xref-and-zoom-to-view feature.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Removing Last Characters Of Block Name In Selected Object?
Jul 29, 2013When i export revit drawing with revit family
the revit family become block in autocad like this
M_Single-Flush - 700 x 2200mm-278353-Ground Level _0_45
usually i want to remove the ID and view name to become like this without have to re type because it is tedious
M_Single-Flush - 700 x 2200mm
something like how many letters you want to remove from last to first ?
or something better like remove this last two dash and the letters embedded inside ( that separate name-ID-View name) -278353-Ground Level _0_45?
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Determine Type Of Object That User Selected?
Mar 1, 2012Is there a way to determine the type of ACAD object that the user selected? I need to retrieve the value from either a dimension or text. The info could be in either format so the lisp routine needs to determine what was selected so the correct vla-get command is used.
Once I determine what the object is I can use an if statement to retrieve the value.
;user selects the object
(setq dimobj (vlax-ename->vla-object(car(entsel))))
;If ACAD object is a dimension do this.
(setq dimvalue (vla-get-textoverride dimobj))
;If ACAD object is text do this.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Larger Routine To Create And Rotate Text Based On Object Selected
Dec 29, 2011the 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.
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Change Xref Layer With Xref Name?

Jan 27, 2012I am looking for some mleader customization.Basically looking for a mleader that will add an objects name(in my case an xref or block) in the text. Attached is a picture of our current process... nothing special. basically instead of typing in text we use the insert field. In the field dialog that opens we select "object" under Field names, then under object the type button is pressed to select object(in my case and xref or block) then under property the "Name" option is chosen. This will insert the xref name in the multileader. This is not terribly hard but am curious if I can automate and save some steps.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Alert When Xref Is Moved?
Jun 29, 2013I'm new to the programming thing, and this one has me stumped. We have a problem with people accidently dragging xrefs. The simple solution would be to put all of the xrefs on a locked layer, but I was vetoed on this suggestion. I've been trying to figure out if I can write a lisp that will do one of the following: Give an alert if an xref is moved.Not allow an xref to be moved.Tell the user when they open a drawing that an xref is not at 0,0,0 insertion point.

Jun 18, 2013This lsp was passed on to me from a colleague but he doesn't know where he got it. It does a useful procedure of placing each xref, residing in the drawing, to a unique layer. The layer name is derived from the xref name. I would like to edit this to take only part of the xref name. This system I work with requires all files to have the job number as a prefix eg LE1399901_Contours.dwg, so the xref name would be LE1299901_Contours by default. I want to remove the first 10 characters to be left with "X_Xref-Contours" layer name using this code.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: XREF Rename / Repath
Nov 25, 2012what i would like to do is rename (externally) and repath about 4-8 xrefs in a drawing set of about 100 drawings.
you may ask why? it is because we are trying to establish a template set of drawings for a civil design office. and when we start a new project, copy over the drawings to the relevant project folder, change the project number, run the script across the drawings and go from there. I've also tried this using the reference manager, but it doesn't work when you change the name of the xrefs (loses association)
basically i know if i could use a lisp i would run it using autoscript or something equal. All i need is to figure out the code to change the project number in the xref
for example
current - "xxxx-PN009999-aaa-00-survey.dwg"
change to - "xxxx-PN001234-aaa-00-survey.dwg"
from my research so far, the easiest way is to make a lisp with the following
-rename
b
xxxx-PN009999-aaa-00-survey
xxxx-PN001234-aaa-00-survey
-xref
p
xxxx-PN001234-aaa-00-survey
c:acadcivildummyfolderxref
If this is the correct code, do i have to rename the CAD xref files in explorer first?
AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Freeze All Xref Layers?
Apr 24, 2013I have the following code that works, most of the time. Actually, it works or completes itself all the time, but there is no "all encompassing" measures incorporated.
All of the reference entities, believe it or not, are on layer "0". There are also some consistent layers, that you can see in the code below. However, a user may create or even remove any layer in the reference drawing. Therefore in my current drawing, I may have layers that are not frozen in the xref.
Like i said, the following code works, but not all encompassing.
(setq filename "7102-002-950 UC10-03")
(setq FreezePRD (strcat filename "|_PRD"))
(setq FreezeSLD (strcat filename "|_SLD"))
(setq FreezeBORDER (strcat filename "|0_BORDER"))
[Code] ........
I guess what I'm looking for is to freeze all layers that begin with "7102-002-950 UC10-03|".

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Move Selected Objects By Value Of Their X Or Y Properties
Nov 23, 2012I need a program to move some selected text to a line something like as extend command but for text objects!
suppose that there is a horizental line (y=constant) or vertical line (x=constant) and some selected text(or other objects), I want a lisp program that move these selected text (or objects) by their "insertion point" to this line.
in other word, if the selected base line is horizental (y=constant) then property of "Y" of all selected text should change to line's "Y"; and if selected base line is vertical (x=constant) then value of "X" of all selected text should match to line's "X" value.
for example, for base vertical line (x=constant) and 3 selected text(or can be any object) result is:
text1. | text1.|
text2. | ===> text2.|
text3. | text3.|
| .text1 |.text1
| .text2 ===> |.text2
| .text3 |.text3
