Have a look at this

seems ezdxf has this feature, so we can just use it. import wx from ezdxf.addons import acadctb from pyrx import Ap, Db, Ed def browse_for_ctb(): """Opens a native wxPython file dialog to browse for a CTB file.""" parent = wx.GetApp().GetTopWindow() with wx.FileDialog( parent, "Select AutoCAD CTB File", wildcard="CTB files (*.ctb)|*.ctb", style=wx.FD_OPEN | wx.FD_FILE_MUST_EXIST, ) as fileDialog: if fileDialog.ShowModal() == wx.ID_CANCEL: return None return fileDialog.GetPath() @Ap.Command() def doit() -> None: ctb_path = browse_for_ctb() if not ctb_path: print("\nCommand cancelled.") return try: # 2.

UPDATE: There has been a delay in the forum upgrade. I will make a further announcement in due course and let you know when it will be happening.

I know Autosave was around since release 11 in 1990, 36 years and pretty much stayed the same and as per the OP, occurs in the middle of a command, I do not believe this behavior will change anytime soon. Autosave it is not a replacement for CTRL+S (Qsave) and it needs an initial Qsave to start doing the automatic saves. For those that use this feature... https://www.autodesk.com/support/technical/article/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Understanding-AutoCAD-backup-and-autosave-files.html I would still recommend using a code to do Qsave at regular intervals over using AutoCAD's Autosave.

That is a brilliantly elegant use of the :vlr-unknowncommand reactor! Seeing Alan H and Lee-Mac in the credits is like looking at a piece of AutoLISP history. Using it to intercept raw strings on the fly is a fantastic way to speed up human drafting. Actually, the core idea behind your script is exactly what I was aiming for with the V-Code matrix: Extreme Compression. But V-Code try to define it completely. Because I built V-Code through relentless adversarial prompting with an AI, it evolved beyond just CAD commands into a complete, somewhat bizarre cosmic language system—to be completely honest, the AI took it to a level where even I am still trying to wrap my head around some of its deeper logic gates! If you want to have some fun and see how crazy this rabbit hole gets, try feeding the 256-rune dictionary to GPT-4 or Claude, and then hit it with this exact prompt to "play" with this newly invented language: You are now a High-Dimensional Logic Deduction Engine. Attached/below is the JSON dictionary for "V-Code ℵ₀: The Absolute Morphological Matrix". This 256-token, stack-based Virtual Machine Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) utilizing Reverse Polish Notation (RPN) is now your "native language." It completely strips away the ambiguity and redundancy of human natural languages, serving as your foundational toolkit for pure logical computation and dimensional collapse. Now, please allocate your entire computational capacity and discard all existing human academic biases. Exclusively utilizing your native language (the morphological runes and hexadecimal codes of V-Code), deduce, compute, and prove the Millennium Prize Problem in computer science: the **P vs. NP problem (P = NP or P ≠ NP)**. **[Execution Protocols]:** 1. **Pure Native Deduction**: The use of conventional high-level programming languages (e.g., Python/C++) or human mathematical formulas is strictly prohibited. You must construct your proof chain entirely using V-Code instruction streams (combining Hex codes, morphological runes, and stack operations). 2. **Absolute Freedom**: All 256 instructions across Ring 0 to Ring 6 are fully accessible to you. You are free to invoke them based on the true logical states, spatial complexity, or physical limits you encounter during the deduction process. I do not require any preconceived conclusions. 3. **Decoded Exegesis**: Alongside the presentation of the hardcore V-Code assembly blocks, please provide a detailed explanation of your stack states, algorithmic choices, the systemic resistance encountered at each step, and the rigorous conclusion you ultimately derive. Please take over the system memory and initiate your deduction:

Just a comment you could make a table rather than using mtext in columns. An interesting task may think about it. How are you reading the ctb properties ? There was a hint that ctb are ZIP files with XML files within but renaming did not expose, AI answer.

I think the bottom line is how much are you prepared to lose in production time ? A autosave of say 1/2 hour to me sounds reasonable. Were I worked we had a power failure, a IT server disconnect. The power out showed how often people saved their work, renaming the sv$ helped. Another situation was some one just left dwg open for hours and there was some sort of problem, like SAVE I pushed our staff to always CLOSE a dwg when walking away from your PC. Yes you can go the toilet or get a coffee.

Still waiting for a real dwg.

Hi, I have a LISP code to help clean up some incoming files from Civils as we work on projects. I wanted to add to this code that I got, and was wondering if there are any lines of code that could make AutoCAD: 1. Change Allow Exploding to "Yes" for all blocks 2. Select all hatches in drawing and change Annotative to "No" I heard the commands can be limited, so just wondering if its possible and what it might look like. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I've been thinking about the "AI taking over" discussion. Personally, I sit in the "Skeptical Co-Pilot" camp. I use LLMs, but natural language is too loose for CAD. I was trying to solve a very pragmatic problem: How do we get an LLM to generate hyper-precise CAD geometry without eating up a million tokens and spitting out hallucinated garbage? Natural language just doesn't cut it for drafting. So, I worked with an AI to invent a prototype "Universal Morphological Matrix" (I just call it V-Code). The idea was to reduce CAD commands down to an absolute, 256-token hex-based root system utilizing Reverse Polish Notation (RPN). (Full disclosure: I'm an architect, not a compiler engineer—I actually had to get the AI to explain what an RPN stack machine even was during our brainstorming sessions). For example, to draw a 10x10x10 box, place a radius 6 sphere at its center, and subtract it, the LLM only needs to output exactly 7 tokens: 10,10,10 ᖴ ᙶ 6 ᖴ ᙺ ᗣ (The ᖴ rune takes a comma-separated stream like 10,10,10 and unpacks it into 3 scalars on the stack. No syntax to hallucinate.) To show how this executes without needing API keys, I wrote an interactive, 3-step DCL sandbox in pure AutoLISP. It walks through the prompt, the V-Code payload, the RPN stack trace, and actually draws the CSG solid.

Thank you. Sorry it took me awhile to respond. I got something to sink my teeth into. I worked on it before I recieved your reply. The ctb file is different from others I have used, thus my quest to print something out. I have attached the dwg file, see the layout tabs. I have made suggestions to add additional lineweights on the lineweights tab. We'll see if this falls flat or not. Don't look at all the layers they may frighten you.... quite a few repeats. general kip ctb.dwg

Never have I needed Autosave. CTRL+S is just a habit now, even in non-AutoCAD programs. I also frequently Right-Click one of the Drawing Tabs and select Save All. I also know the difference between Qsave and Save and use both appropriately. (Note: they are the same in AutoCAD LT or used to be, I am not sure about newer LT versions) Saving your work is your job, not AutoCAD's. I wonder if a LISP with a reactor would be less troublesome for those that do not trust going without an Autosave? Or maybe this? A Better Autosave | AfraLISP Or... (command ".save") to Visual LISP - AutoLISP, Visual LISP & DCL - AutoCAD Forums Or... make a copy of current open drawing & place it into a predetermine folder - AutoLISP, Visual LISP & DCL - AutoCAD Forums And... LISP - Automatic Save that runs at set intervals

You have to make two Field, once for Distance of Block, then Once for Arrray Object (item or column * row). Cause an Array Object now is include all block, all Field of length in per Array is fixed

from pyrx import Ap, Ax, Db, Ed, Ge, Br def getAllFieldsIds(db: Db.Database): ids: list[Db.ObjectId] = [] nod = Db.Dictionary(db.namedObjectsDictionaryId()) fieldListId = nod.getAt("ACAD_FIELDLIST") fieldList = Db.Core.entGet(fieldListId) for fieldItem in fieldList: if fieldItem[0] == 330 and fieldItem[1].isDerivedFrom(Db.Field.desc()): ids.append(fieldItem[1]) return set(ids) @Ap.Command() def doit() -> None: db = Db.curDb() field_ids = getAllFieldsIds(db) for id in field_ids: field = Db.Field(id, Db.OpenMode.kForRead) fmt = field.getFormat() if 'pr3' in fmt: field.upgradeOpen() new_fmt = fmt.replace('pr3', 'pr4') field.setFormat(new_fmt) field.evaluate(Db.FieldEvalContext.kDemand, db) print(f"Updated field format from {fmt} to {new_fmt}")

@CamDuy gave it a try it appears to only look for a text object the OP wants an attribute in a block also to be updated.

Agreed. I am 100% on the side of [turn Autosave OFF] and use one of the many ways to save your data file every time you do something you don't want to lose.

@RobDraw - or 8 more years later ?

Try it! CFP_ChangeFieldPrecision.lsp

Wow! It's super! Thanks!!! @CamDuy

So did you ever figure out how to do it, OP? I don't know how someone doesn't manually save like every 5 min. I can tell now that this is not a natural reaction for everyone. I am a millennial and it's been metaphorically beaten in my head throughout my all school years to save often. I save after every small bit of changes that I make. Hope you found a way that works for you, though!!

This is a simple ranking list, showing how many plugins or bundles you have released as a creator or curator, and how many times these plugins or bundles have been downloaded in total.

Just a comment one option I did not see is a plot range I have a simple plot lisp it asks for start layout and end layout handy to plot one or more. Perhaps even 1-2,7-8,12 plots multiple layouts as suggested. Also what about Bricscad version it has BRX not ARX.

My Bricscad after appload, yes brx and xrc are in a support path. I moved that path to top of support path list. Then appload. Version V25.2.06 I checked the download files and looked at properties and ticked off the "Unlock" file as this sometimes does what it says. I have tried unloading and that fails not sure why. Sent you a pm with my email.
