Command line info

Small Fish · 4th Nov 2009, 08:51 pm

Hi
probably an easy one.....
When I use the command mtext in my code
for example:

(command "Mtext" pt1 "_Justify" TL "HEIGHT" #TxtHgt pt3)

I always get this annoying returned message in the command line.
How can I not show this:

Current text style: "STANDARD" Text height: 55.0000

Cmdecho is set to 0

thanks

The only two tricks I use to get rid of prompts like that is setting cmdecho to 0 and/or nomutt to 1. Neither seemed to work. I did have the same issue before with MText and I couldn't get rid of that prompt. It might be that you simply cannot.

sure there is'nt a system variable to enable or disable the mtext behaviour?

It can only be suppressed by changing the nomutt system variable.

Thanks Alan - yes that is good. I am just curious about what the 'AT' means in
(defun AT: ???

Just a nice alternative to worrying with the command.

I prefix subroutines I write with AT: to stay organized. Plus I can filter them out if needed easier from (atoms-family 1).
AT: = Alan Thompson

You can also do (vla-put-rotation (AT:MText......) radians).
