Thanks in advance...

I have dev a set of arxs programs,Now I want to develop a startUp.exe which can startUp AutoCAD and Let it search for acad.rx file in the folder where the startUp.exe located.

 

the Arxs that acad.rx file contains is also in the same folder.

 

More details or code will be prefer.

Boa noite pessoal eu trabalho com vba e gostaria de saber se é possivel no momento de rodar o programa fazer con que ele possa ler o ip do computador que está rodando, e se for igual ao que foi determinado então execute senão ele não execute o programa.

 

Aguardo alguma sugestão, e desde já agradeço

I am modifying stuff in a dynamic block insert entitity. There is no "endblk" entity at the end of these definitions and I need to cycle through every entity within the block definition. When it gets to the last entity,  I get an error because you cannot entnext passed the last entity. There are 2 things I could use help with:

 

1. How to retrieve the # of entities in a block without cycling through it.

 

Or

 

2. A quick lesson in the *error* function, I cannot figure out how to implement this. I basically want to to say:

(if (entnext myent)) returns a error, don't abort & continue on.

 

Is this possible ?

 

Thanks

I want to show one entity middle of the screen and highlight it? is there any way? Maybe use zoom?

How can I  bind the rasterImage as part of dwg file not depend on the ori file outside?

I use the imageattach order, However  when i delete the ori image or send the dwg file to others

the image is wrong.  How can i solve it ? Thanks.

I've just downloaded autocad map 2014, but I can't find the developer documentation. I can find some crap in the general help referencing lisp and vba, but no clearly organized developer documentation. In the previous versions there used to be an acad_devxxx.chm  file, that was perfect for the job, but I can't find anything similar here. Do I really need to install an earlier version and copy the file from there?

 

this dwg file data reading with c#?

how do you detect the intersection of a line and circle or arc

Entity name of  MULTILEADER they have 3 (assoc 10 ) the first (10 4.11 7.0 0.0) is end points to the tab by the dimenson the next one (10 3.75 7.0 0.0) is the other end point of the tab and the last one (10 2.75 6.0 0.0) is to where the arrow head is how do you have it get it pick the second and third 10 this will only pick the first one (setq pt1 (cdr (assoc 10 (entget (car ML)))))

Hi,
We are trying to write a windows service and manipulate DWG files there. In our computer we have already AutoCAD installed. 
It seems with ObjectARX , it is just possible to write .Net dlls which will be hosted in AutoCAD application not any standalnoe application.Did we get it right?

we know about RealDWG but the problem  is that we also need ability to plot(save) manipulated files, which is not possible with RealDWG.
Is there any other solution for writing a standalone application can manipulate and plot( pdf) DWG files?
Is there any solution with AUTODESK product for our problem?

Thanks .

Is there a way to force enable the PromptKeywordOptions dropdown list that appears in the drawing pane of newer versions of AutoCAD?

 

For some reason it appears on some cases and not others. Exactly the same code and I can't figure out why it dosn't.

 

Also, some of our computers don't seem display the dropdown list at all. Not the right forum but is there a manual setting to enable that?

For Civil 3d 2013, im looking for a method to change the Profile View Direction of a Profile View Style in VB.NET.

I currently have dynamic blocks that I insert into a drawing. Grip points modify them.

 

Ideally the user can stretch the inserted objects without needing the grip points so that they behave like normal drawing entities.

 

If I apply parametric constrains to a set of objects and GROUP them, the object behaves the way I want but I don't know how to insert the group or reference its properties.

There are no parametric dimensions in the properies pane when a constrained group is selected.

Is there an alternative to Block and Group that would allow this?

 

 

 

 

 

 

I prepared a simple code to make a char table.

It is very easy, but did not work!!

 

can anybody tell me what is the problem?

 

(Defun C:CharMap () (setq cnt 1) (setq r_cnt 0.0) (setq ts 16) ;;16x16=256 char (setq x 0.0 y 0.0 sub_y (- y 0.1)) (repeat ts (repeat ts (command "text" "j" "mc" (list x y) "0.05" "0" (chr cnt)) (command "text" "j" "mc" (list x sub_y) "0.05" "0" (itoa cnt )) (setq x (+ x 0.2)) (setq cnt (1+ cnt)) );repeat (setq x 0 y (- y 0.2)) (setq sub_y (- y 0.1)) );repeat (command "zoom" "e" "zoom" "0.75x") )

 Thanks,

Anybody have a suggestion to find overlapping dimensions ?

ie: Have a dimension of 2'-0" with a dimension beside of 3'-0" which is correct

BUT

A too quick drafter would have a dimension of 2'-0" and a dimension beside of 5'-0" beacuse the 2'-0" dimension is on top of the 5'-0" dimension. The 5'-0" dimension would be the overall distance of the 2'-0" + the 3'-0" dimension.

 

Both of the dimensions are correct but they are on top of each other.

 

 

I there any way to set the dimension break size in autolisp

I just noticed that I can't put any more than 11 lisp files when trying to make one VLX file.

 

Does this sound true to anyone?

 

I wanted to break out all of our lisp commands to their own file, so that it is easier to track down and troubleshoot (I guess that's a matter of opinion).

 

If this is normal or expected behavior, is there anyother way that i accomplish what i'm trying to do?  I want a lot of lisp files, but i only wnat one file for users to load into their start-up suite or what have you.

 

Thanks

switching from 2010 win xp to 2014 win 7

i need my specific user interface  , and cant replicate it because of this issue  :

 

i used to press context menu key on keybard to make edit menus pop up . 

 in 2014 even though its same settings  (show context menus and time sentive click)  i ve lost this ability .

 

either menus dont appear at all or they are replaced by the small command line context menu 

i think this suggest new command line features are messing with right click options

 

interested in suggestions about any variable i can turn off , or else to go back to normal
