Xara :: Using DP6 To Create User-input Form
Jun 8, 2011
Create a Form that can be sent to a customer as an email attachment. The customer must be able to Save and Open the Form with software that is available on most Windows computers. The customer should then be able to enter the requested information in the Form, Save the Form and then attach it to an email and return it to the sender.
I could achieve the above using MS Word. But it is a real pain to layout a complex Form using Word. I would much prefer to do this using DP6 as it is considerably easier to lay the Form out.
But... I simply cannot see a DP6 Export file-format that I could use to achieve this result.

I am starting a website from a template.
The template has two user input box (User and Password). I did all the
design modifications to the template, but when I want to save it for
web, both user input are only images, and the user can't write anything
on it.

I've been working on this code for a bit now and I've got a Windows Form with a numeric up down box which is designed to determine how many Layouts (PaperSpace) that a user would like generated.
I've got the form to pass the value as to the function as an argument but an not sure how to get the function to automatically generate "x" amount of Layouts based on the value of "int x". Right now i've just got a few "if" statements controlling the system, but i'm looking for a more elegant solution than a sea of "if" statements.
namespace CHPaperSpace
{
public class PaperSpace
{
[Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime.CommandMethod("CHPAPERSPACE")]
// This will be the function associated with my command
public void CHPAPERSPACECOMMAND(int x)
[code]........

I develop addins for Inventor primarily, so the AutoCAD api is very new to me. I'm working in AutoCAD 2010 and visual studio 2012.
I've looked at many posts for getting block attributes, but they either seem to assume I already have the Blockreference, or they give a prompt to the user. I'm hoping to avoid both of those.
I know the info I need is inside of a blockTable by the name of "DET".
Database acCurDb = openDoc.Database;using (Transaction acTrans = CurDb.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()) { //How can I access the blockreference in here which corresponds to the blockTable "DET"? }

Any way to trap when the user hits the escape key without a user input function. The idea is to loop infinitely and perform some analysis until the user hits the escape key.
I suppose I could do the same thing with a form but I would not.

I'm trying to build an action that makes thumbnails out of images and adds a few effects, but I want it to let me select what area of the image it takes the thumbnail from and making that thumbnail size instead of shrinking the whole thing to 100x100 and losing all the detail. Any suggestions?

I have this working without the prompt, if I under manually the margin via var margin = 10; it works. it also seems to return correctly when I print what the input from the user is, but it doesn't seem to want to work and freezes.
it says "point value expected"
//Helper functions
function print(i) {
if(i == "object"){
print("you are trying to printObject, use printObj(); function");
}
else {
$.write(i+"

I have a form with some textbox on it, which should be filled in with imperial dimension. Like foot and inch. Users right now complain about it is not user friendly ,to put data in form, and honestly they are right. I didn't a good job .
Some people like to put vetting in inch and then by the time textbox lost it focus it should automatically convert data to feet-inch format. Some other user like to put decimal I have to be able to should them in 1/8 inch.
some user like to use space as separator between foot and inch and some other like to use dash.
Bottom line I stocked. Is there any function for this in autocad ?
when I look at my code I just struggled with pure string. I thought maybe there is something in autocad which give developer this option. Like the way we input dimension in command prompt.

I have got a problem about getting user input. In a function i am first getting a selection from the user by editor.getselection(...)
then i show a palette set with my user control in the same function. everything is fine so far.
but after showing paletteset i try to get a string from the user by editor.getstring(...) in the same function but statement continues as i never request it. when i check the PromptResult status it is equal to cancel.
i mean
Transaction acTrans = null;
Document acDoc = Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument;
Database acCurDb = acDoc.Database;
acDocLock = acDoc.LockDocument();
using (acDocLock)
[code].........
i tried to lock the document but it doesnt work either. when i comment out "showpalette(true)" it works correctly. i realized that if my document window s state is not WindowState.Maximized then my code works just fine but if it is WindowState.Maximized it does not work.

I'm inquiring whether or not it is possible for Revit ceilings to be customized by the input of a user regarding the shapes and sizes without using a .pat file. Almost like a parametric object with predefined limitations. For example: a rectangular ceiling tile 'x' can be from 6 inches to 10 feet and side 'y' can be from 6 inches to 6 feet. So someone can select the ceiling type and actually input what size 'x' and 'y' they'd like while staying within those limitations.

I made a toolbar button with the macros @, and tried also @ pause.
I need this in order to shorten the procedure for relative coordinate input, but, after pressing the button the last point is entered and i cannot continue entering values like in the manual input at the command like, like: @5,5
Even if i use the "@ pause " sequence it doesn't work.
How to wait for user input?

I want to write a very simple AutoLISP program to scale selected objects by a factor of (1/25.4). How to I get the program to pause and allow the user to select the base point? I know that "~" will bring up a selection window, but what is the character that will allow point selection (in this context)? While we're at it, what is the operator that would trigger a pause and allow user command line input?

How do I detect wich button the user pressed in the iLogic-form?
I can show it like this:
result=iLogicForm.ShowGlobal("MyForm", FormMode.Modal)
I guess that result is of type FormReturnValue - but I can't guess the qualifier (FormReturnValue.OK / FormReturnValue.OkBtn / ?)

I am trying to locate a .wdp file with minimal user input. this is what I have so far
;All file saved in this folder
(setq filedir "I://PROJECTS//")
;User will put the following in, but there might be a small description after 915-01. That is why I have a wildcard
(setq filename (strcat "915-01*"))
; string together everything
(setq nextlevel (strcat filedir "JOB " filename "*" "//ACAD"))
;; the final path should look something like this:
I://Projects// JOB 915-01(something here... could be anything or nothing)//ACAD//915-01(something else could be here as well).wdp
;set file extension
(setq fileext ".wdp")
; search files
(setq wdp_file (vl-directory-files nextlevel (strcat filename "*" fileext)))
I am confused on where and when I can use wildcards for searching directories.

Any way to modify a user form parameter's read only status using a rule?
I have a parameter that I want people to be able to edit when another parameter is set to true and to be locked if it's set to false. The only thing that comes to mind is have a rule that will just switch the value back automatically if the user changes it but it would be good if i could control the read only status.

Currently have an iLogic rule in my drawing template that base on user input brings up the Drawing View dialog box (as though you click on base view). I want to know if there is some coding I can do to control or handle what happens if the user clicks the cancel command inside this dialog box. Possibly show a message box. Or even run another rule after the cancel button has been clicked?

I have a list function that asks for the user to pick points when it is run. It looks something like this (foo arg1 arg2) When invoked it asks the user to pick points and press enter when done It.
Instead of getting the points from the user i want to pass it a list of pre-defined points. The code cannot be changed so I must use it as is.Is this possible, if so how can it be done?

I have customized a standard user profile Sam in my win 764 XDP7 interface. (added buttons, etc)
Is it possible to export/save that interface and pull it into the program and use the interface when I "Run As Administrator"? Or do I need to just spend time rebuilding?
As a User, when I work with a web site file, I have to republish locally all pages every time I open the file. It does not remember where I stored my preview. I am hoping that by running as administrator that will no longer be necessary. (My website file built in XWD6 moved to XDP6 and moved to XDP7 ends in .xar not .web)
