combine 2 or more dwg in one

How we can merge 2 or more dwg togather with lisp or simple way:cry:.

Insert drawing B into drawing A; explode newly inserted block; take a bathroom break.

thanks a lot

my q is How we can merge 2 or more dwg togather with lisp or simple way:cry: without opening them

Here is a way,

Create a folder in drive Known as Merge DWG whose directory will be C:\Merge DWG

and put all drawing file in that folder which you want to merge,

and run the following routine, but check drawing units of drawings which you want to insert and keep them same

(defun c:MDWG (/ directory files)
(setvar "cmdecho" 0)
(alert "\n Please put your DWG files in ''C:\\Merge DWG'' Directory")
 (setq directory "C:\\Merge DWG")
 (if (setq files (vl-directory-files directory "*.dwg" 1))
   (foreach dwg files
     (command "_.-insert"
              (strcat directory "\\" dwg)
              '(0. 0. 0.)
              ""
              ""
              ""
     )
   )
   (princ "\n No DWG files found into that folder !")
 )
(alert (strcat "\n ''DWG files has merged together''  ")
      )
(setvar "cmdecho" 1)
)

Enjoy:)

It is a good practice when you in need of changing any system variable , you should reset it back .

Dear Tharwat,

I had posted same thread which is http://www.cadtutor.net/forum/showthread.php?70158-Merge-multiple-DXF-in-a-single-drawing

You only have provided this routine, so big thanks to you, it made my work lot easier:)

Dear Tharwat,

I was referring to the system variable "cmdecho" and not to the other codes .

Happy to hear that .

Perhaps...in this post

Oops....forgot to put that, Being newbie it happens in excitement

Are the DWGs already xreffed into one another? Or do you want to simply place them into a blank DWG and not overlap each other (like in the thread teknomatika pointed to)?

If the former, there are lots of stuff concerning binding xrefs. Just do a search here.

Also, what about any paper space tabs? Neither of these would bring those in as well. For that you'd need to import the layouts, and might also need to adjust the viewports.

Dear satishrajdev

I tried your lisp and that massage "DWG files has merged together" but but i don't know that which location save the merged dwg??

You might want to check out the Express Tool, LAYOUTMERGE.

I have never used it, but it may prove helpful.

It saves merged files into your current drawing, where you have loaded this lisp...

I think - to say attached in is much clearer than to say merged in - in this regard .

Dear satishrajdev

I checking current drawing but there's not there also.??

How do you run the codes ?
