  1. Hi All, I have so many drawings in which the xrefs were 'bind'ed instead of 'insert'ing. Seeking a solution I got a Lisp routine from net (Thanks to the person posted it. But I don't remember his name or the wesite I got it from), which is as given below. The problem is that $0$ layers are not getting renamed because I have another layer in the same name. Suppose; I have a layer, Ground Floor Plan$0$A-ANNO-DIMS which has to be renamed to A-ANNO-DIMS Since the drawing has a layer A-ANNO-DIMS, it doesn't allow the lisp to rename it. I have the logic now but I am a zero in lisp. It has to check if the layer exists before renaming. If existing it should merge down the $0$ layer to the standard one. (This part is missing in the lisp routine) Can anyone please change the code to do so? It would be a great help... Here is the code; (defun c:RBP(/ ActDoc Name NewName) ; RemoveBindPrefixes ; Renames layers, blocks, dimension styles, text styles, user coordinate systems, and views ; by taking out the bind as bind prefix ; Example Drawing1$0$Layer1 -> Layer1 (vl-load-com) (defun RemoveBindPrefix (String / Pos LastPos) (if (setq Pos (vl-string-search "$" String)) (progn (setq LastPos Pos) (while (setq Pos (vl-string-search "$" String (1+ Pos))) (setq LastPos Pos) ) (substr String (+ 2 LastPos)) ) String ) ) ;--------------------------------------------------------- (setq ActDoc (vla-get-ActiveDocument (vlax-get-Acad-Object))) (vlax-for Obj (vla-get-Layers ActDoc) (setq Name (vla-get-Name Obj)) (if (/= (setq NewName (RemoveBindPrefix Name)) Name) (if (vl-catch-all-error-p (vl-catch-all-apply 'vla-put-Name (list Obj NewName))) (prompt (strcat "\n Layer: " Name " was not renamed.")) ) ) ) (vlax-for Obj (vla-get-Blocks ActDoc) (setq Name (vla-get-Name Obj)) (if (/= (setq NewName (RemoveBindPrefix Name)) Name) (if (vl-catch-all-error-p (vl-catch-all-apply 'vla-put-Name (list Obj NewName))) (prompt (strcat "\n Block: " Name " was not renamed.")) ) ) ) (vlax-for Obj (vla-get-TextStyles ActDoc) (setq Name (vla-get-Name Obj)) (if (/= (setq NewName (RemoveBindPrefix Name)) Name) (if (vl-catch-all-error-p (vl-catch-all-apply 'vla-put-Name (list Obj NewName))) (prompt (strcat "\n Text style: " Name " was not renamed.")) ) ) ) (vlax-for Obj (vla-get-Views ActDoc) (setq Name (vla-get-Name Obj)) (if (/= (setq NewName (RemoveBindPrefix Name)) Name) (if (vl-catch-all-error-p (vl-catch-all-apply 'vla-put-Name (list Obj NewName))) (prompt (strcat "\n View: " Name " was not renamed.")) ) ) ) (vlax-for Obj (vla-get-UserCoordinateSystems ActDoc) (setq Name (vla-get-Name Obj)) (if (/= (setq NewName (RemoveBindPrefix Name)) Name) (if (vl-catch-all-error-p (vl-catch-all-apply 'vla-put-Name (list Obj NewName))) (prompt (strcat "\n UCS: " Name " was not renamed.")) ) ) ) (vlax-for Obj (vla-get-DimStyles ActDoc) (setq Name (vla-get-Name Obj)) (if (/= (setq NewName (RemoveBindPrefix Name)) Name) (if (vl-catch-all-error-p (vl-catch-all-apply 'vla-put-Name (list Obj NewName))) (prompt (strcat "\n Dimension style: " Name " was not renamed.")) ) ) ) (princ) )
