mrthra Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Greeting fellow lispers. I currently have a basic lisp routine which will place a point (node) at a picked position and then schedule the points until i end the routine. This works fine for coordinates of houses or foundations when there are lots of them. () However, i am looking for something slightly more automated. The problem is that when a house is moved for example i have to re-pick and re-schedule all the points again. Is the field command a possibility? When using fields in autocad I can obtain the coordinate from a point and display it. When the point moves, the field updates. Its there a way of incorporating this into a lisp routine? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Mac Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 This thread may also be of interest - it could be modified to use FIELDs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanjt Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Just for posterity, here's a couple examples (2nd and 3rd code) of how one can use a position field within an MText object that references itself (no outside objects required). http://www.theswamp.org/index.php?topic=32921.0 I think Lee's will give you what you need.

BIGAL Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Old fashioned way prior to fields was to place a block at the required pt (setoutpt in our case) and run a lisp that would export out the points to a text file a quick sort and add comments etc and then a second lisp just read the txt file E N Z and placed the answers in a drawn line & text table including headings etc move object just do again erase old table. You can have the code if you want. But I would stick with fields now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
