AreaTester • Calculating areas in AutoCAD
By Debalance
AreaTester is a free plug-in for AutoCAD. It allows you to quickly measure the area in AutoCAD and gives you advanced capabilities to process the results of the calculations in the further workflow (annotate the the areas in the drawing, convert the received data to different spreadsheet formats, etc.).
The plugin calculates not only the areas of enclosed objects, such as a polyline or circle, but also any other shapes formed by the intersection and connection of various types of objects, which include lines, arcs, splines and many other AutoCAD basic objects. At the same time, to calculate the area of any enclosed shape, you only need to point the crosshair of the cursor on it and the area value will be instantly displayed in the context window above the cursor. In addition, the user can create the necessary list of the areas in the main application window for the further workflow. All these areas are summed automatically in the created list. The total result of the summation is displayed at the bottom of the main window of the app.
One of the main features of AreaTester, compared to the standard AutoCAD tools, is the ability to determine the area value of any bounded shape excluding the areas formed by objects that have got inside such an shape (the so-called "islands"). This option significantly simplifies the user’s work on calculating areas in AutoCAD, eliminating the need for additional mathematical operations.
Key features of the AreaTester for AutoCAD free plugin: Automatic calculation of the all areas in a drawing. Annotating the areas directly in a drawing. Drawing boundaries of the shapes in the form of polylines. Exporting the generated list of areas to the clipboard or some convenient data format (* .txt, * .csv). Adding the table of the area list to a drawing.1 download

Multiple Toggles.lsp
By BIGAL
Multiple Toggles is a library routine that allows you to create as many Toggles of input as required (subject to Autocad limits) using a dialouge rather than the command line.
Its use is intended where you want the user to pick one or more values. It can be used where you want to run a number of functions, pick multiple values to be used.
It can be used in most lisp code with just a couple of lines of code, compared to a hard coded solution of around 50+ lines repeated every time you want to use a dcl.
To use just save the "Multiple Toggles.lsp" to a directory that is included in you Autocad search path. If you need more information how to do this send an email to info@alanh.com.au
It only requires 2 lines of code in any lisp to use.
(if (not AH:Toggs)(load "Multiple toggles.lsp"))
(setq ans (AH:toggs (list "Change blank for yes " "Blocks" "Dimension" "Hatch" "Images" "Viewports" )))
In the example above the variable ans will have the toggle Values 1 or 0 for a toggle clicked on eg ("1" "0" "1" "0" "1") depending on toggle selected.
If you want further information or conversion of your code email info@alanh.com.au

Multi Radio Buttons.lsp
By BIGAL
Multiple Radio Buttons
Multiple Radio Buttons is a library routine that allows you to create as many Buttons of input as required (subject to Autocad limits) using a dialouge rather than the command line.
You can have horizontal or vertical buttons choice is yours
Its use is intended where you want the user to pick one only of preset values it can be a number, a character or a whole word.
It can be used in most lisp code with just a couple of lines of code, compared to a hard coded solution of around 50+ lines repeated every time you want to use a dcl.
To use just save the "Multi Radio Buttons.lsp" to a directory that is included in you Autocad search path. If you need more information how to do this send an email to info@alanh.com.au
It only requires 3 lines of code in any lisp to use.
(if (not AH:Butts)(load "Multi radio buttons.lsp")) ; loads the program if not loaded already
(if (= but nil)(setq but 1)) ; this is needed to set default button for user pick
(setq ans (ah:butts but "V" '("A B C D " "A" "B" "C" "D" ))) ; V is for vertical H for horizontal layout
In the example above the variable ans will have the button string value.
(setq ans (ah:butts but "V" '("Please choose " "Alpha" "Beta" "1" "2" "No words")))
Pick button 5 ans = "No words"
The program resets the default button to last pick so click Ok, can be removed if not required.
Copy the 3 lines above to your command line to see how it works. There is extra examples in the top of the code how to use in your code.
For programmers it is a replacement for the Initget function.

Multi Getvals.lsp
By BIGAL
Multiple Inputs
Multiple Input DCL is a library routine that allows you to create as many lines of input as required (subject to Autocad limits) using a dialouge rather than the command line.
It can be used in most lisp code with just a couple of lines of code, compared to a hard coded solution of around 50+ lines repeated every time you want to use a dcl.
To use just save the "Getvals multi.lsp" to a directory that is included in you Autocad search path. If you need more information how to do this send an email to info@alanh.com.au
It only requires 2 lines of code in any lisp to use.
(if (not AH:getvals)(load "Getvals multi.lsp")) ; check if already loaded else load
(setq yourlist (ah:getvals '("Xfall percent" "Enter Horizontal scale " 5 4 "100" "Enter Vertical scale" 5 4 "50" "Enter number of decimal places" 5 4 "2")))
There is extra examples in the top of the code about how to use. You can have 1 entry or as many as required subject to screen size.
For complete example contact info@alanh.com.au and we will send some more example code load and a working example "Make furniture table.lsp"
For testing just copy the two lines of code to the command line you will see a "list" of the result. You can then convert if required to a real or integer using Atof or Atoi.

Global Attribute Edit with Layout Selection
By SteveK
This small program works just like AutoCAD's GATTE express tool, with the extra option of choosing which layouts to apply attribute changes to.
GATTE2 is made in lisp and uses CAB's Layout Select program to select which layouts you want. Make sure you place LayoutSelect.dcl in an AutoCAD search path or GATTE2 will not work!
Required Files:
gatte2.lsp
LayoutSelect.dcl
Both in gatte2.zip
See this thread for more details.
Function Syntax: gatte2
For instructions on how to run the program see here.

By tzframpton
This is a program made by ASMI and modified by Ronso in this thread. This is a genius free LISP Program and can be used in many trades, but has most usefulness in the HVAC, Mechanical, and Piping industries for drawing 2D CAD designs. It allows you to create Duct, Pipe, and Segmented Duct or Piping with automatic elbow or fittings to accurate dimensions via some initial input at the command prompt.

Line Length Calculator
By Lee Mac
This program will calculate the total length of Lines/Polylines/LWPolylines/Arcs/Ellipses/Circles/Splines with an optional filter.
The Filter may be used to select only those lines that are on a certain layer, or perhaps have a certain linetype or colour.
The results of the calculation can be displayed in an ACAD Table within the drawing, or written to either a CSV or TXT File. The Table-Style may be selected from the drop-down in the main dialog.
Main interface
The main dialogue box allows the user to filter lines by layer, linetype or colour and select the table style. Multiple selected items can filtered. A filter string may be entered to help the user quickly find the filter items that he/she requires.
Options
The options dialogue box allows the user to specify which object types should be included and the type of output, table in the drawing, CSV file or TXT file.
Demo
Function Syntax: LenCal
For instructions on how to run the program see here.
Any comments, criticism and suggestions are welcome. Either PM me directly, or reply to the original thread.
