Hi I’m attaching the code. But first, a brief explanation of how it works. The function is implemented by calling MiGRTexto with one parameter: the desired height for the real-time texts (this should be a value between 0.5 and 1) Therefore, it can be placed inside a main function that can be called from the command line (e.g., (defun c:myCommand)). As for the code that provides functionality, it's actually very simple: it consists of a text next to the right CROSSHAIR and an MTEXT below it. These must be properly managed so that they dynamically update their size, location and content—it's that straightforward. From there, it’s just a matter of adding code to achieve whatever final functionality the user needs. In the attached code, a small emulator for the "pline" command is implemented, triggered by a LEFT CLICK event. This event calls funcionPrincipal, which is provided with two arguments: the screen point indicated and the entity name (or nil) of the object under the PICKBOX at that location. These two arguments should be enough to enable any subsequent operation. It’s important to note that the entire behavior relies on GRREAD, and therefore on mouse and keyboard events. These events are handled using several clauses within a cond expression, which can be extended or modified by the user. I haven’t implemented any code to add object snap functionality. Doing so would considerably complicate the code, and for some users, it may not be necessary. In any case, suggestions and improvements (regarding snapping or any other proposals) are welcome in this thread—for those (myself included) who may want to improve or add new features. I won’t go on any further. Now, the code... ;******************* p o r d e s í a r g o ******************** ;************************ G L A V C V S ************************* ;************************** F E C I T *************************** (defun MiGRTexto (factor / l se e le txTmp txTmp1 txOk tam p pa pt pt1 i? v1 polil alt tx para erroria errores error0 textoGR1 textoGR2 funcionPrincipal) (defun erroria () (defun errores (mens) (setq *error* error0) (vla-delete txTmp) (vla-delete txTmp1) (redraw) (if e (redraw e 4)) (prin1) ) (setq error0 *error* *error* errores ) ) (defun funcionPrincipal (pt e) (setvar 'LASTPOINT pt) ;;;INICIO(START) EMULAD(T)OR "pline" (if polil (entmod (append (entget polil) (list (cons 10 pt)))) (if (entmake (list '(0 .

Trimming out side use Extrim inside it is (etrim obj pt) just load it 1st that exposes the Etrim defun. Use (getvar 'extmax) for pt. In my Bricscad it odes not work properly hence why in code above use Cookiecutter. Sent a support request to Bricsys for comment. Just copying the objects trim them, then rescale is much easier than making a block of objects. Pick circle, enter desired scale, go to a layout and make correct viewport at desired scale a much better way.

This returns the serial number of the motherboard. It is more unique than the hard drive's serial number and also more unique than the variant of this same function that uses "Select * from Win32_BaseBoard". (defun obt_UUID (/ LObj SObj OSObj UUID) (setq LObj (vlax-create-object "WbemScripting.SWbemLocator") SObj (vlax-invoke LObj 'ConnectServer nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil) OSObj (vlax-invoke SObj 'ExecQuery "SELECT UUID FROM Win32_ComputerSystemProduct") ) (vlax-for Obj OSObj (setq UUID (vlax-get Obj 'UUID)) ) (foreach Obj (list LObj SObj OSObj) (and Obj (vlax-release-object Obj)) ) UUID ) This might be a good option if you want your program to continue working when the user changes their hard drive but not their motherboard.

pretty slick! you made a Jig in lisp

After seeing @BIGAL's suggestion, I'm wondering if I understood correctly what you're asking, Vica. Anyway, I'm attaching a short clip of what I'm talking about. FACTVM de ARCTIS.mp4 I’ve implemented a small emulator of the "pline" command in the base code, but each user should implement the code they need for their specific task instead. Basically, the distance variation from the last stored point in LASTPOINT is displayed above the cursor (though this can be easily changed by modifying the textoGR1 function). Below the cursor, any desired information about the object under it will be shown (or not, if visibility is toggled by pressing the F10 key). This information must be passed to the textoGR2 function as a list of (Property_Name StringValue) pairs. The main code must be implemented in the 'FuncionPrincipal' function.
