AutoCad :: Convert 3DSPline Into A Pline?

Jan 12, 2012

what I need to do is to flatten a spline into a pline because I need to measure its diameter.

I know how to it with a 2d spline but how can I manage in case I have a 3d one?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Convert 2D Pline With OCS Into 3D Pline In WCS

May 29, 2012

I have LWPOLYLINEs that represent a cross section of a train tunnel. Each LWPOLYLINE lists its 2D points in an Object Coordinate System.My task is to create 3D Polylines in WorldCoordinateSystem using those LWPOLYLINEs.I have posted a drawing with sample objects.

I have attached a sample drawing. Drawing was created with Civil 3D 2013, but I exporttoautocadr12dxf'd it and then save to 2004 dwg so most should be able to open it.

AutoCAD LT :: Extreme Lag While Drawing PLine

Nov 18, 2013

I have terrible lag whenever I am drawing a polyline.  It seems like it is taking forever to render the preview of the line when I am dragging the line across the screen.  I would prefer to just turn off the line preview if at all possible.  So far, I have not been able to find a way to do this. When I say preview of the line, I am talking about the transparent line that follows your cursor after you start a polyline and exists until you click to place the line where you want it. 

I am running Windows 7  Pro 64-bit
Dell Precision M6600
8-gb ram
NVIDIA® Quadro® FX 2800M graphics

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Ellipse To Pline

Aug 8, 2012

Recieved a ACAD converted Microstation File for use in an upcoming construction project. Would like to convert all of the existing ellipses to polylines. Have read several threads that lead me to believe redrawing them is about the only real way to do it. Posting here in hopes of a solution. Drawing contains 127 ellipses, and I dont want to redraw all of them!!

Currently on C3D2012.

AutoCAD Architecture :: PLine Edit Using Grips

Feb 25, 2010

Is there a way to add/remove vertices from polylines using the grips method similar to editing hatch boundaries? I know of "Pedit" and "edit vertex" then "add vertex" but this seems like too many steps after working with hatch boundaries.

AutoCad :: Drawing PLINE With Known Lengths And Angles

Aug 7, 2013

I want to create a segmented polyline with known angles / lengths, but I want to do this in 1 operation without having to copy/rotate/chamfer etc.

I'm sure it has something to do with UCS, but I've not used it in quite some time, I am stumped and everything I have tried so far has failed.

how to change lineweight on the circle? another word i want to make the arc line thicker. Can we do that rather than offset the circle and Hatch it. I use Pedit alot on straight line but won't work on circle. As you can see on the picture below when i changed the lineweight to be bigger but the circle is still the same.

AutoCad :: Extending Line To Face Of Pline?

Jun 12, 2012

what is the setting to tell a line to extend to the face of a pline when that line doesn't actually intersect with the pline? see image below...line 1 will extend to pline faces A and B, but how do i get line 2 to extend to those faces? i know this worked when i used autocad 2008 but i'm now using 2012 LT so hopefully it still works, i just don't remember the command name to control it.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Using PLINE For Land Surveyed Descriptions

Mar 12, 2012

I have bearings and distances but I am wondering if using PLIN  is the best method to draw parcels in AutoCad Map 2012.  I have a layer of the Townships, Ranges and Sections that I hope to align with the drawings.   Most of the time it looks okay meaning they line up and for the most are where they are suppose to be but ever so often I have problems.

AutoCad 2D :: Changes Z Coordinates The Resulting Pline Is Angled To Xy Plane

Oct 3, 2013

I have just started using Autocad 2010 (i know i know, its not the latest )... but anyways.

I am facing this unique problem where i have a 3d solid object in the drawing, and when the first point in a pline command falls within the boundary of the 3d solid, autocad automatically assigns some of the properties of the 3dsolid to the new polyline i draw.

so for example, in the attached file, even if i am selecting pline command and starting a command within the rectangle (start point shown as a circle), it automatically changes the z coordinates so that the resulting pline is angled to the xy plane.

I a not sure how this happens, and how I can turn it off.

In continuation with thread All to Pline . I want to add one more function to this lisp i.e. Join all the objects selected.

When I try to 'calculate automatically' by selecting a pline the width of the wall (2 components 8" wide total) the dialogue comes up and asks which component I want to apply the endcap to. I want to apply it to both, but don't seem to have that option.

When i try to rotate the pline around a point it seems that some edges are locked? 

Even if I copy this pline in an empty area alone and try to rotate it again i get the same resulsts.i tried the move comand with a vertex as a base and the same reults.

I do not know where the edges are locked .

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: How To Create Pline In Modelspace

Feb 15, 2013

I have been using one routine very successfully to create a pline in modelspace that has the outline of the chosen viewports in the drawing. This one works great.

Now I am trying add other routines that I've done to better fit my needs. If I use each routine individually at the command line they work, but when I use all in a single command I got the following errors:

The routine SetColor - does not change color to Bylayer The routine RectWidth - ; error: bad SSGET list

Why?

See the attached file for more details and be free to improve whatever you want in my routines because they are very basic.

And, if I am not asking to much, is that possible to not be prompt to select objects? I mean, the routine could automatically select all viewports in the drawing...

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Can't Offset Horizontal Alignment To Create Pline

Dec 19, 2012

This is with Civil 3D 2013.  I am able to create a pline by offsetting an alignment using any drawing on any other workstation in our office, but on my machine I get an error: "1 object(s) were filtered out." when I try to select the alignment.

This leads me to searching for some system variable or something that is different on my machine.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Finding 2 Points Along A Pline

Jul 7, 2013

I have plines of circuits that sometimes have T's (line goes along, then T's out then back to T point and then continues).

Here is example line -

(setq List_Pline (list (list 0 0) (list 1 1) (list 0.5 1.5) (list 1 1) (list 2 2) (list 3 3) (list 3.5 2.5) (list 3 3) (list 4 4)))

nth 0 = (0 0)
nth 1 = (1 1)     - T point
nth 2 = (0.5 1.5)
nth 3 = (1 1)     - T return point
nth 4 = (2 2)
nth 5 = (3 3)     - T point
nth 6 = (3.5 2.5)
nth 7 = (3 3)     - T return point
nth 8 = (4 4)

I need to be able to pick 2 points along the line and find the shortest route.

Examples - 

1st point at 1,1 and 2nd point at 3,3 - new line is nth's 3,4,5

1st point at 0,0 and 2nd point at 1,1 - new line is nth's 0,1

1st point at 2,2 and 2nd point at 3,3 - new line is nth's 4,5

1st point at 3,3 and 2nd point at 4,4 - new line is nth's 7,8

1st point at 0,0 and 2nd point at 3,3 - new line is nth's 0,1,2,3,4,5

1st point is 1,1 and 2nd point is 1,1 - new line is nth's 1,2,3

I've tried using vlax-curve-getParamAtPoint, but it returns 1st T point.

Synopsis of program -

Select Pline

Pick 1st point

check if on line

Pick 2nd point

check if on line

check if 2nd point is before 1st point, if so swap locations

find last nth of 1st point

find 1st nth of 2nd point

return list
