I am hoping to be able to achieve a kind of simple animation by doing this, and also to show progress while a computationally intensive operation is under way. Is there a way that I can do this?
I have tried using AcadApp.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument..Editor.Regen() and also .Editor.UpdateScreen(), but it only seems to work once and not multiple times. Do I have to commit the transaction and then .
I would like to know if its possible to make a plugin which will create a button without the user entering any command?

1/ The first one is move view:
I already create a view (e.g. oIsoView), now I want to move it to the left.
I find the DrawingView.Position method, how can I use this method? I try many time, but it's not successful yet.
Do I need to use the SelectSet method??????
I have a Command Method which has a loop that opens and commits transactions until the user is finished with it and exits.
I would like each transaction to be undone separately but the undo command undoes the CommandMethod (along with all the transactions that occurred while in the loop)
Do I need to use the COM StartUndoMark and EndUndoMark to get this working?
I'm trying to draw an object in 3D view, but I'm having trouble creating a circle in the Z direction. I know how to make circles on the X-Y plane but I can't figure out how to make one in the Z direction!
I'm making I attached a picture so you can see what the object looks like, and more or less the "3D circle"! I also attached the actual AutoCAD file that I'm working on. (The dimensions are 1:10)

I was making a website and I wanted to make a pattern that looks like one color turning into another color by way of small circles increasing in size. I've created a small mock-up of the type of effect that I want to make, and what is the name of the effect, or how to do it. But for some reason it doesn't let me post the image.

But somehow it isnt working.Then I tried to create this figure myself by creating two circles (one at the top and the other at the bottom) and then creating the path for using the sweep command , but it gives a error " sweep produces self intersecting curves".
convert this surface in to a sloid volume or if thats not possible can this geometry be created to the nearest possible approximation.
I am attempting to create a export command for our surveyors that deletes all there point layers and seal layer, then audits and saves the file before opening the etransmit command.
Below is what I currently have.I know there is a better way to do this, but it is above my programing skill right now.

I am able in lisp to create a command prompt selection menu, easy (see code below).However what I want is for the lisp to be ready to undertake an action UNLESS I select an option.
An example is the offset command wich has a function ready to roll (namely the specify offset distance) "OR" I can interrupt the "specify offset distance" and enter one of the sub options (in the case of offset Through/ Erase/Layer).
My code attempts to offset also, UNLESS the user wishes to specify a distance.
(DEFUN C:loadoffset ();CREATING MENU FOR SUB COMMANDS [GETIT] [GOTIT]...(setq choose (getstring "
Select an option... [1=GET DIST] [2=GOTDIST]: "))(if (or (equal choose "1"))(GETIT))(if (or (equal choose "2"))(GOTIT));TERMINATING SELECTION MENU...)(defun getit ( gotit )(setq MYDIST (getdist "
SELECT A DISTANCE: "))(gotit))(defun gotit ()(command "_offset" MYDIST pause pause"exit"))
could someone explain how to create a command key for an action?
I have created custom actions and would like to assign them to different keys such as F11...

If if dim AcadApp as object I get a <COM Type> object (which I cannot use or convert to AcadApplication)If I dim AcadApp A AcadApplication i get this exception:

i have a problem in Inventor 10 with the add method, which i didn't have in inventor 8, it's very puzzling. I open an assembly, add some parts (this goes without problems) then i open another assembly, change some stuff,close it again, so i'm back in the first assy and then the next add method fails.
Public Sub AddOccurrence()
' open assy
Set oAssy = ThisApplication.Documents.Open("C:TempAssy.iam", True)
' Set a reference to the assembly component definition.
Dim oAsmCompDef As AssemblyComponentDefinition
Set oAsmCompDef = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.ComponentDefinition

SSA rational method. I have to compare results of rational method between SSA and another product. Plain rational method, steady flow, Darcy-Weisbach. Times of concentration (TOC) are manually defined.
I played a bit with the units, formulas, IDF curve is defined as pair of values time/intensity. Seems that I achieved something. Results are more or less similar, but there are some differences. After playing with both programs, comparing in Excel, think that I found what is different.
So, I have very simple example, of one channel with catchment areas. All areas have the same runoff coefficient – 0.8. Pipe diameters are constant (500). The whole analysis is restricted between 5 and 10 minutes of rain duration (5 min-397.22 l/s/ha and 10 min – 321.53 l/s/ha). I converted IDF to mm/hr. So I have the next example:
[picture in attachment]
In theory, what I learned about rational method, there is next definition:
Intensity from IDF curve is defined by TOC. TOC is defined by sum of „entrance time“ (which is defined by shape and size of catchment area) and sum of upstream flow times. In my example I defined 5 min for every area.
So, for example for pipe nr. 3, TOC is calculated:
TOC_3 = Entrance time for area 3 + Tflow_1 + Tflow_2 + Tflow_3
For example:
TOC_3 = 5 min + 0.67 + 0.45 + 0.51 = 6.63 min
That TOC_3 (6.63 min) is base for reading appropriate value of intensity (I_3) from IDF curve. The flow in pipe 3 is then calculated:
Q_3 = I_3 * (A1 * k1 + A2 * k2 + A3 * k3)
This is the way how I learned rational method. But results between SSA and another product (which works in a way explained above) are different. Differences increase downstream.
After playing with results in Excel, I found out that SSA does not summarize in TOC all flow times upstream. So TOC in SSA is calculated simply by initial entrance time and flow time in specific pipe:
TOC_3 = Entrance time for section 3 + T_flow_3
So, there is no time added from T_flow of pipes 1 and 2. Seems that it is major difference which leads to final results differences. I tried to understand all options of SSA to find possibility to add upstream flow times, but without success.
I need functions:
acdbEntGet
acdbEntMod
acdbEntUpd
of course, usingP/Invoke.
