Hi All, I have the wonderful Lisp routine that mfuccaro wrote back in 2003 called Offset Polylines "POF" for short. like I've said before in my other threads I'm just learning how to write and modify Lisp routines, I've manage to modify this routine to offset to the current layer but i can't figure out how to get it to remember the last offset distance. Can anyone help me please. thanks, Brian ;| OFFSET POLYLINES mfuccaro@hotmail.com September 2003 |; (defun c:pof( / plines ; selection set of polylines ext ; extrnal point dist ; distance to offset poly ; a polyline from plines plist ; the list of poly del ; polyline to delete int ; internal point i) (command "undo" "begin") (princ "select polylines") (setq plines (ssget) i 0 ext (getvar "limmax") dist (getdist "distance ")) (repeat (sslength plines) (setq poly (ssname plines i)) (setq plist (entget poly)) (command "offset" dist poly ext "") (setq del (entlast) int (polar (cdr (assoc 10 (entget del))) (angle (cdr (assoc 10 (entget del))) (cdr (assoc 10 plist))) (* 2 (distance (cdr (assoc 10 plist)) (cdr (assoc 10 (entget del))))))) (command "offset" dist poly int "") (command "_.change" (entlast) "" "_p" "_la" (getvar 'clayer) "") (entdel del) (setq i (1+ i))) (command "undo" "end") (princ) )
