AutoLISP Move only Z-Coord.?

I am trying to find or build a LISP that will move any object that is selected in the Z-Coord. I know many ways to change the elevation of an object I would just like to be able to run a command other than move @0,0,?

thanks

Here's something to get you started:

(defun c:mvz ()
(setq ss1 (ssget)
        rz (rtos (getreal "Enter relative Z distance: "))
        rd (strcat "0,0," rz)
);setq
(command "move" ss1 "" "0,0,0" rd)
);defun

Thanks, Im new to the whole LISP process but it should help me get some work done faster.

Awsome, It is exactly what I was looking for

Thanks Again,

Patrick

you can do any of the 3 x y z

x rd (strcat rz ",0,0" )

y rd (strcat "0," rz ",0" )

Here's something to get you started:

(defun c:mvz ()
(setq ss1 (ssget)
        rz (rtos (getreal "Enter relative Z distance: "))
        rd (strcat "0,0," rz)
);setq
(command "move" ss1 "" "0,0,0" rd)
);defun

Can you please add an option to pick the value of Z as well. Thank you.

Perhaps :

(defun c:mvz  (/ ss1 rz rd)
 (setq    ss1 (ssget)
   rz  (rtos (getdist "Enter relative Z distance: "))
   rd  (strcat "0,0," rz))
 (command "move" ss1 "" "0,0,0" rd)
 (princ))

Perhaps :

 

(defun c:mvz  (/ ss1 rz rd)
 (setq    ss1 (ssget)
   rz  (rtos (getdist "Enter relative Z distance: "))
   rd  (strcat "0,0," rz))
 (command "move" ss1 "" "0,0,0" rd)
 (princ))

Thanks Lee, but it does not work.

Lisp must request to pick a text of Z value first.

This works in the same way as previously posted, except the user can click and specify a distance on screen. I'm not quite sure what you were expecting, but if you could clarify things it'd make it much easier.

If there are some text: 3.45, 2.55 ...in drawing. We just select this number but not have to "Enter relative Z distance". Cheers.

Maybe this:

(defun c:mvz  (/ ss1 rz rd)
 (if (and  (setq ss1 (ssget)
         txt (car (entsel "\nSelect Text for Z Coord: "))))
   (progn
   rd  (strcat "0,0," (rtos (cdr (assoc 1 (entget txt)))))
     (command "move" ss1 "" "0,0,0" rd))
   (princ "\n<!> Error in Selections <!>"))
 (princ))

Lee, I get this:

Command: mvz

Select objects: 1 found

Select objects:

Select Text for Z Coord: ; error: bad argument type: numberp:

Haha... I'm a moron.... the text you are selecting is already a string and not a number... so I was trying to convert a string to a string...

(defun c:mvz  (/ ss1 rz rd)
 (if (and  (setq ss1 (ssget)
           txt (car (entsel "\nSelect Text for Z Coord: "))))
   (progn
   (setq rd (strcat "0,0," (cdr (assoc 1 (entget txt)))))
     (command "move" ss1 "" "0,0,0" rd))
   (princ "\n<!> Error in Selections <!>"))
 (princ))

All right now. Thank a lot, Lee.

No problem Phiphi, it was a stupid mistake on my part

Glad it works now

Lee
