I have a lisp to alter mapping that we use in the background of our drawings. It is quite slow and was wondering if anyone can offer any suggestions on how to improve.

 

Part of it explodes the block map tiles in order to set everything to bylayer. Can this be done without exploding which slows things down alot?

 

(defun c:osmap1 (/ pref ss)
 (vl-load-com)
 (setq pref "CCC_OSMAP_") ;; <<-- Prefix
 (vlax-for lay (vla-get-layers
                 (vla-get-ActiveDocument
                   (vlax-get-acad-object)))
   (if (/= "0" (vla-get-Name lay))
     (vla-put-name Lay
       (strcat pref (vla-get-Name lay)))))
(command "_-layer" "c" "253" "*" "")

(and (setq ss (ssget "X" (list (cons 0 "INSERT")))))
(command "explode" SS "")
(command "_change" "all" ""  "p" "color" "Bylayer" "")
(command "_-layer" "F" "CCC_OSMAP_BDY_SYM" "F" "CCC_OSMAP_HT_CTRL" "F" "CCC_OSMAP_ROADS_CTR" "F" "CCC_OSMAP_ROADS" "F" "CCC_OSMAP_POLE_SYMB" "F" "CCC_OSMAP_LEGEND" "")
(command "_-purge" "a" "*" "N")
(command "regenall")

 (princ))

 

Thanks.

This would set all your Blocks entity's layers to ByLayer without exploding them .

And regen all after that.

 

(vlax-for x (vla-get-blocks
             (vla-get-activedocument (vlax-get-acad-object))
           )
 (vlax-for blks x
   (if (not (eq (vla-get-color blks) acByLayer))
     (vla-put-color blks acByLayer)
   )
 )
)

Don't forget about the built in setbylayer command.

 

Not the best option for automation, but it's a very useful command to know. :wink:
