Adding Vertex shortcuts?

Hi All,

To add a vertex to a polyline, I usually hover over a grip until the drop menu comes down and I select add vertex. The problem is i have to do this for every vertex I want to add. I was just wondering if there's a way i can add multiple vertex with out going through the drop down menu.

Thanks

There are two lisp routines (see messages 2 and 3 of 9) in this thread at the AutoDesk Community - Visual Lisp forum. Maybe one of them will work for you. Disclaimer: I don't test; I only find.

Or try the one by CAB2k (post #2) in this thread found at the AUGI website.

Last one, and probably the best (written by CADTutor forum member Lee Mac, and available at his website Lee Mac Programming.

If you're not familiar with lisps and simply want to try it out, download it to your computer, then drag the file ( AddVtx&DelVtx.lsp) onto your AutoCAD drawing area which will load it for the session. Type ADDVTX to use.

Ah, improved version with demos... much cooler than mine, thanks

gile's version (link I posted), is by far the most functional. I use it regularly.
