Is any way to get view name ?

Hello

Is any way to get view name in current drawing ?

top ,bottom,left,reght ,front , etc.

This code is change the object form left view to top view.

I want auto judge the current view name , and change the object to top view.

Thanks a lot .

(defun c:test(/ ss)
 (if(setq ss(ssget))
   (progn
     (setvar 'cmdecho 0)
     (command "_.rotate3d" ss "" "z" "non" "0,0,0" "90")
     (command "_.rotate3d" ss "" "x" "non" "0,0,0" "-90")
     (sssetfirst nil ss)
     (setvar 'cmdecho 1)
     )
   )
 )

I don't believe that when a view is changed to left or right or bottom views etc... that it is stored as a named view as if you were to use the view command and save a named view.

One way that I can think of knowing whether it is top or left or what not, is to look at the VIEWDIR system variable.

For example: if

(setq vdir (getvar "VIEWDIR"))

returns ( 0 , 0 , 1.0) then you are looking at the top view. (0, 0, -1.0) = bottom

if it returns (0 , negativenumber , 0) you are looking at front

if it returns (0, positivenumber, 0) you are looking at the back

I hope this helps you in some sort of way.

Ben

Hello, Hippe

I use (getvar "VIEWDIR") at top , left ,right ,front view , all returns (0.0 0.0 1.0)

Hi andy_lee,

you'll have to test the viewdir, ucsxdir and ucsydir System Variables...

Hope this helps,

Perhaps you could use the command VPOINT.

This from my Help files

Define a 3D View with Coordinate Values or Angles

 

To set standard views with VPOINT (AEC convention)

 

On the command line, enter vpoint.

 

Enter a coordinate according to the viewpoint you want:

 

Enter 0,0,1 for a top (plan) view.

Enter 0,-1,0 for a front view.

Enter 1,0,0 for a right side view.

Enter -1,0,0 for a left side view.

 

Enter 1,-1,1 for an isometric view.

 

Command line VPOINT
