lee mac - Lock Objects - Locks Selected - Unlocked Objects
Registered forum members do not see this ad.
Hi guys,
I saw on lee mac' site this lisp - http://lee-mac.com/objectlock.html - and seems to be a very useful lisp. anybody has somethig similar? maybe a lisp like this will be useful to lock only position of two (or many) objects - i mean, to make a connection between two (or many) objects so that when i move one object, the other to move together with the first one... What do you think Lee, can you do that? Thanks!!

Constraints may work also an object has to be a certain distance away from the first no real programing required.

The build-in GROUP command will serve right for this purpose. Originally Posted by brams

The group is a good idea the real advantage in constraints is you can include rules change the size of the first object say x 2 now distance is x 2

The OP appears to use AutoCAD 2008, which AFAIK does not have Constraints.
Besides GROUP, they could also be made into a block.“A narrow mind and a fat head invariably come on the same person” Zig Zigler
