Automating AutoCAD


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi

Im using AutoCAD LT 2006.

 

I want to learn how to automate AutoCAD.

 

I heard about recording interface action, but i dont know how to do it. and I'm pretty sure its not available on LT. secondly, I heard about LIPS.

I also googe the keyword "LIPS". I couldn’t find anything interesting.

Does anyone know about some learning material on the net? or any other input will be great.

 

Thanks

Shay

Try googling "LISP" Or "Visual LISP". LISP doesn't work on LT.

Visual Lisp and Lisp only work on Autocad full version

 

You will be able to do scripts and possibly some Diesel programming

You can add macros to the two other means of automating AutoCAD LT that Grant mentioned above. There are at least two websites dedicated to AutoCAD LT that I am aware of. One of them is LT UnLimited which I have posted links to in the past.

Palettes can also be used in LT to do certain amount of automation. I'm not sure, but I think DIESEL can also be used in LT.

Macros, Templates, Fields, Dynamic Blocks, and Tool Palettes & their properties are about the extent of "customizing" that you'll get in LT. It can do a lot if you get creative.
