Stationing

I found a routine that I would like to use that does what I need it to do except that it puts numbers at vertices but I need it to give civil engineering stations instead starting with 0+00. Can anyone figure out how to code it?

(Please see attached)

Thanks

TEST-12.lsp

Since you're not using Civil 3D (which does all of this for you), why not just setup a typical "Station" block, and insert using the Measure Command, and be sure to select 'Yes' for 'Align to Object' prompt?

Just search here for Chainage along a pline theres quite a few that will do what you want.

I checked all of the "chainage" routines and they only do the stationing at specified lengths. I am looking for a routine that will place "text" stations at the vertices and end points.

The version I have may have come from www.Theswamp.com

Try this quickly written program:

@BIGAL, I think you mean www.theswamp.org

Thanks Lee Mac, It works. Only one thing to be fixed if you can. In the routine I sent "Test-12.lsp" it would align the station text (1+00) with the irregular line or polyline. Thanks
