but in the example i watched it was long enough so how can change line length
shown and in the another example i watched after clicking the line command
and specifying first point the user was typing a length in the command line as
4'7-1/2 and clicking enter.after this the line's direction and length was automatically forming.but when i doing the same it doesnt work.how can i
do both of these.thank you. ]]> hht http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?79518-line-length-settings How to turn off interactive angles and length on line command? http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?79517-How-to-turn-off-interactive-angles-and-length-on-line-command&goto=newpost Wed, 22 May 2013 13:00:29 GMT I've migrated from Autocad 2005 to ACAD LT 2014. After using it for a couple of weeks I find the angle and length display on the line command more of a distraction than a help. Can I turn this feature off? I'm not sure shat it's called and have not found the information in help.

Thanks

I use a techniques called ‘scanning near-field optical lithography’which is where you get a metal tip with a laser on the end and use it to‘write’ structures onto a surface.

To define which shape of the strutcure we want to write we currently have toget graph paper, draw the structure and work out the coordinates and type theminto notepad to create a code that the instrument software can read. This is OKfor simple structures such as lines but it is quite laborious for drawing morecomplex things. To give you some example of the code that we use, to draw asquare which is 25 micrometers in size you would write.



SS 30
MR 25.0,0.0
MR 0.0,25.0
MR -25.0,0.0
MR 0.0,-25.0


With SS being the speed that you would likethe tip to move, MR (x.y) (move relative) followed by the coordinates that thetip should move to.

I am wondering if there could be a simpler way to do this and thought I maybeable to draw a structure in CAD then somehow export the coordinates and type them into code. Or evenbetter a way that would allow me toexport the coordinates straight into a code that I could use for the instrument software. I am new to CAD so was wondering if someone could tell me whether thisseems feasible and if so if they could point me in the right direction.

Thanks

Anyways I then tried to use massprop on the 10 objects to get the combined volume.
But I get: "No solids or regions selected." whenever I select the arrayed objects.
To create the initial object I offset an existing objects square face using "Offset Edge". Then I arrayed the resulting offsetted square shape. I then "Extruded" the shapes by editing the source.
Anyone have any idea what the problem is, or how to reach a solution? ]]> Moolla http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?79438-Massprop-for-arrayed-objects
