Looking for vba sample to work on parameters

hello all :)

I am working for constraint on vba. But i am not able to code for constraints to change the value of it using vba.

Suppose I have rectangle and one constraint is height d1 = 10 and other is width d2 = 15. I want to write code to change value for d1 using vba.

Could someone help me.

Thank you.

Compare two similar objects one with parametric the other plain. You you can see all the extra assoc codes.

 

(entget (car (entsel)))

Thank you for replying.

I am starting from the basics and this is my first time programming.

Would you please tell me little bit more.

Thanks

This is a quicky and dirty example but it works, the right way would be to pick the object and find the parametric dims. The way to go is to make a defun that can be run many times with the variables to be changed say ("d1" "d4" "d5")

 

; example of changing constraint dim "d1"
(defun c:test ( / ss obj)
(setq ss (ssget '((0 . "dimension"))))  ; pick all dims
(repeat (setq x (sslength ss))
(setq obj (vlax-ename->vla-object (ssname ss (setq x (- x 1)))))
(If (= (vla-get-DimConstrName obj) "d1")  ; get the dim prefix need to know which one etc to change
(vla-put-TextOverride obj (strcat "d1=" (getstring "Enter value ")))  ; redo string etc with correct prefix
)))
