in edit dialog box i can scroll up and down through block list & even get a view for the blocks as i go but not any more information or properties
SO MY QUESTION IS THERE IS A WAY THAT I CAN GET INFO ON THE BLOCKS AS I GO THROUGH THE BLOCK LIST. INFO SUCH AS LAYERS NAMES OF THE OBJECT CONTAINED IN THE BLOCK SO I WON'T NEED TO OPEN EACH BLOCK SO I CAN GET SUCH INFO WHICH TAKES A LOT OF TIME ???
Regarding the conversion of some WinAPI fucntions to 64 bit.Been banging my head on this one for a while. I just can't seem to get it right no matter what I try.I think I have converted everything but it still crashes X6 after a few scrolls of the list box. I think it is corrupting the stack but I'm not sure how to fix it. "The best thing about learning is that it never stops, and the rabbit hole will go as deep as you let it.

(vl-load-com)(defun c:pmb ( / ss ent pt )(prompt "
selec block : ")(setq ss (ssget '((0 . "INSERT")))) (setq ent (ssname ss 0)), (setq pt (cdr (assoc 10 (entget ent)))) (command "point" pt))
wich this code you select one block and insert one point at insert point´s block.
which this other code yo select all block and insert all point.... but in one block
(vl-load-com) (defun c:pmb11 ( / sele cod bloque nbloque lista pt ) (prompt "
block: ") (setq sele (ssget ( List'(0 . "INSERT"))) Cod 0 )cod (1+ cod) (repeat (sslength sele) (setq bloque (ssname sele cod)) (setq pt (cdr (assoc 10 ( entget bloque)))) (command "punto" pt) );repeat )
I am using Autocad 2007 I made several blocks with att. And I use this drawing and copy it to the samples/design center folder so that I can see the blocks that I created on the Design center window for use on different other drawings.
My problem is that if I make a cange on the ORIGINAL block drawing how can I update the inserted blocks on the other drawings? I try to delete the block from the local drawing insert block list (is this possible?) to paste the block again with the new changes, but somehow even when I grab the new modified block to inserted again when I do it, it takes the shape of the old version!
when I select several objects and try to deselect some of them in the object manager the list scrolls down after each click. This happens only in long lists when I deselect objects that are rather in top of the list. It then scrolls until the end of the list and I have to scroll up again for deselecting any further object. Can this be fixed?
Furthermore I would like to know if there is any way to select/deselect by a filter? For example: Deselect all objects that are of the type text or all curves that have a border.
I would like to add a drop down list to a block.
Background: We use the same block (symbol) to represent several different part numbers, but would like to select from a drop down list the actual part number. For example, a beacon symbol is the same no matter what color the beacon, but i would like to be able to select a grip and choose red, green, blue, yellow, ect. I don't want it to do anything to the block, but rather just store the property that is set by the user.
Imagine you have 2 objects that you always use them as a combination(like bolt and nut) and each of them has different types. I made dynamic block for each one with a visibility list and put the variation of each in that visibility list and select the one that I need from the visibility list for each and then put them together.Because they always line-up in a specific point so if you can have a 1 dynamic block with 2 visibility list you can work easier.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have created a generic title block for all my drawings and I have some attributes for the block. Is it possible to have a drop down list for an attribute so I do not have to type in the value/text each time? If so, how?
I want to be able click on 'customer 1' or customer 2' ect. and not have to type it in the attribute.
I'm using Autocad 2011.
Is there anyway to move attributes up or down on the list of a title block? I like everything for Rev 1 to be together (Drawn By, Checked By, Approved By, Date, Description, and Rev Number)...However, i was in a hurry and skipped Approved By. Once i added it, after the entire title block was done, it moved it to the very bottom on the list. Is there a way to "Move Up" so that it's with the other Rev 1 group?
View 1 Replies View Related when I insert a block with attributes I get the prompts on the commandline to fill in the attributes. Can I stop this from happeneing, and just insert the block?
Alternatively, can I get the Attribute Editor dialogue box to come up instead?
Sidenote: How hard is it for people to learn that blocks need to be INSERTED not copied - if you copy the blasted thing the attributes are messed up, why is that so HARD?
I'm new to .net for autocad, but very familiar with c#. I studied some samples about creating a block from c#. I have a form for some basic input. When the user presses OK the code checks if the blockname is already in use. When no it creates the block using following
private void make_block() { double nextpoint = 0.0; double linedis = 7.3634; Document doc = Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument; Database db = doc.Database; Editor ed = doc.Editor; using (Transaction tr = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()) {
[code]......
The code runs successfully (meaning i don't get any errors), but when I want to insert the block it isn't in the list of blocks.
I'm looking for a lisp routine that will globally list all the values from a specific attribute tag within a specific block. The attribute tag is "COMMENT" and the block name is "FSD".

While in data extr wizard for some reason I cant get the size column to set in ascending order.. Why does size 10 brake the logic?
Can I edit the extracted data without launching data extr wizard?
Data extr wizard brings a data in one table what if I want the table to display other types of attribute ( example see pic for instance instead of EL i have SS no problem until now, but my matched data link in excel is for EL and not for SS)
Its hard to explain Basicly i selected the column in excel for one type of attribute "EL" and I want fo a different name of same attribute different cell matching.

my job is to make an editor for blocks in C#. There should be a WPF-window were the user can see a list of blocks. He selects one and than he should see an overview about block attributes like insertionpoint, basepoint, rotation and scaling and he should be able to edit these attributes in this form.
I know how i can populate a list of block names, but I fail at finding an opportunity to edit these attributes.
I get the blocktablerecords, but then?

I've spent the last week and a half creating blocks that have between 2 and 10 visibility states in order to represent the separate iterations of common valves.
I would like to construct a lsp and dcl (we work off of a network drive that would enable a stable location for an accompanying dcl file along with the base lsp, though I believe that in order to do what I'm wanting done some on-the-fly dcl manipulation may be necessary) that would display the current drawings in our dynamic block folder and upon selection within the first List_box, would display the different options for visibility states for the block in the 2nd list_box. After a user selects one of the visibility iterations that are now displayed in the 2nd list, an image preview (or slide, I can handle creating the different slides for each block once if required) of how the block will be displayed in the selected visibility state would be shown in what would be the 3rd space, this time an image preview and not a list_box, though I would like proportionality between the list_boxs and the image preview. Some white space is allowable in the list_boxes.
I'm not even sure if this would be possible, but I'm assuming you can access the different visibility states in the same manner that you could access polyline verticies or block definition attributes.
BLOCK REFERENCE Layer: "TWC Dim"
Space: Model space
Handle = 27879
The above result from LIST > 'Last' ... gave only the above result.
We have a project... granted, the requirement is to model 1.6 million feet from world origin... I know that AutocAD can have issues with this... and we have certainly had issues on this job that can be attributed to this... BUT WHAT ABOUT THIS ISSUE?
When anything is INSERTed into this drawing file, or from this dwg file... it doesn't seem to show up... no command line errors, no OFF or Frozen layers, no objects Isolated, no indication at all that there was a problem... except that nothing showed up.
This was used to find the issue. List the last object added to the database. Then paste to original coordinates (NOT PASTE AS BLOCK)
Command: list
Select objects: l

No more info.. no block name, no Handle, no Insertion point x,y,z... no scale factors, none of the normal info that should accompany the BLOCK REFERENCE LIST output.
Several Audits were done, and Recover... this reported fixing Invalid Block Refs... we even rebuilt the dwg in a blank dwg file... but still object INSERTed with this same behaviour.

I created an an app that uses a paletteset, and displays an usercontrol in it. I want to add a scroll to the paletteset. As when I resize it for editing the dwg file, The paletteset data below cannot be viewed without a scrol bar. get the scroll bar.
Autodesk.AutoCAD.Windows.PaletteSet m_ps = new Autodesk.AutoCAD.Windows.PaletteSet("Object Data");UC uControl = new UC();m_ps.Add("Object Data", uControl ); m_ps.Visible = true;
paletteset properties does have any properties related to scrollbar.
The vertical scroll bar don't really bother me, it's the bottom scroll bar that I mostly want to hide. I never use them and the horizontal one take too much space that hide some "tabs". I know I can "minimize" the horizontal one, but I have to do it every single time I start AutoCAD. So I've search a way to hide them but come with nothing.

Is there a way to modify the DEFAULT SCALE LIST to show a metric scale list in an imperial template? I mean, I start a drawing using the imperial template, but i want to use the standard metric scales on paper space. on previous versions the scale list shown both imperial & metric.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have this problem with AutoCAD 2012 and with LT2011. When first opening a drawing in a layout with the viewport locked and activated, the first scroll action moves the drawing within the viewport. After the first scroll, any scrolling moves the entire viewport as it should when locked. Putting the drawing back to where it was within the viewport requires unlocking the viewport or undoing everything back to the first scroll action. This is very anoying especially if you are zoomed in and can't see the edges of the viewport and don't notice the move right away. I did not have this problem in the older versions.

If i click the restore down button then restore back to max drawing comes back but as soon as i try to scroll zoom again with my bamboo pen the screen grays out again. I've already updated my video driver to latest version and i've updated my bamboo pen driver to latest version. I also booted windows 7 64 bit into safe mode and check device manager to make sure no broken drivers or anything like that. Some times it will work for a few min then start graying out my screen again.
