firavolla Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 1) Added custom toolbar in autocad 2) Added custom button in autocad. Let's say I want that when the user clicks the custom button, a dialogue appears on screen and the user has to punch in the X and Y coordinates for the 2 points of a simple line. When the user clicks ok, using the values entered, a drawing of a line appears inside Autocad. I've done this with AutoLisp. But the project I'll have to work on is a bit more complex and requires a somewhat larger amount of user input, so what i want to do is design my dialogues and message-boxes inside a simple c application. The way I thought about the problem is this: The custom button opens my application The user enters the neccesary data. When the user clicks ok, a script is generated from a template and then that script is run in autocad displaying the line. How can I get the generated script from my app ( an usual lsp script) to load and run in autocad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo Ferral Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Create your App as a VB.Net 'Plugin' that runs inside Autocad. Then you can add your line drectly to Autocad's database. http://through-the-interface.typepad.com/ http://www.theswamp.org/index.php?board=27.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
