if a valid selection set was generated, then proceed. The first few lines set up some parameters for using Visual LISP functions and accessing model or paper space, before the dialog box is loaded, initialized and set to get the data that is passed to the DO-INSERT function. Post by John Avitt Kent, Thank you for your post. Even putting my thing into a Script and using AutoCAD to call that would take (command) to invoke Script.-Kent Cooper, AIA 'John Avitt' wrote. into Lisp would require (command) to invoke the DIMSTYLE part. The lack of support for Visual LISP commands hurts, because there is just no easy workaround. They are simply references to functions which exist as USUBR routines in the Visual LISP. A significant point that this routine demonstrates is that functions which are exported to AutoCAD or AutoLISP from Visual LISP are not functions at all. prompt the user to select closed polylines But I do confess to being just a little curious as to why it needs to be. If you run a highly customized setup for AutoCAD that relies on Visual LISP and VBA programs, ARES is going to fall short as a replacement for AutoCAD. It is called by the hello-autocad function which is explicitly exported to AutoLISP using the vl-acad-defun function when loaded in Visual LISP. This class will explore the fundamentals of VB.NET and examine how you can use it to enhance existing AutoLISP routines. set a reference to the current model space. AutoLISP is a very powerful programming language, but it doesnt offer the same knockout punch that VB.NET/C does when combined with the AutoCAD. create an empty list, set a counter variable, and (defun C:POLYTABLE ( / *MS* A CNT I LST MYTABLE PT1 ROW SSET TLST) These sizes used here work with the Standard tablestyle in a new empty drawing. The TABLE is creating on the current tablestyle, so depending on the settings of your current tablestyle, you may have to adjust the sizing arguments in the (vla-addTableвЂ¦) function in order for the table to look acceptable. You could easily adapt this to show the layer, color or any other property. One containing the area, and the other containing the ObjectID. DOSLib is a library of LISP-callable functions that provide functionality not available in CAD-based LISP programming languages, included with AutoCAD and BricsCAD. This routine allows the user to select closed polylines, and it will create a TABLE with two columns. You can find out how many elements there are in a list by using the Lisp function length, as in the following examples: (length (buttercup)) 1 (length (daisy buttercup)) 2 (length (cons violet (daisy buttercup))) 3 In the third example, the cons function is used to construct a three element list which is then passed to the length function as its argument.

This example also creates some FIELDS using lisp. Here is an example of creating a TABLE entity using lisp.
