[Lee Mac]

Well, this one is a bit more involved

 

See this thread for an example:

A better plot LISP can be found here:

Take a look at "PlotDwgs" -- that should suit you nicely

i bloody wish!!!

 

he has no idea on the limitations of acad, all he's bothered about it getting his drawings done as close to his personal preferences as possible....

 

he certainly doesn't know his lisps from his scripts!!!

I think that is echoed throughout many companies...

haha, more than likely!!

 

although i probably can't do half the things he can, so we can give him a bit of slack.... (only a bit mind!!!)

ok just playing with this now....

 

i found this 'string' of commands i'd like to use....

 

'zoom extents-purge-save-close' thanks to Strix on another thread, i saw this and thought it'd be uber handy to have......

 

so i've tried this:

 

(defun c:qq () (command "_zoom" "_e" "-purge" "a" "" "n" "qsave" "close"))

 

and get this error:

 

Command: close Command CLOSE is not available under SDI mode.

Command: nil

 

any ideas? can the 'close' command not be invoked via lsp?

 

Strix quite specifically only uses that string as a button macro btw, and it usually finishes off with 'open' too

i tend to use cleanscreen mode tho, (mainly so the gaffer can't see i have the web open behind acad!) and i much prefer keyboard entries than menu's and toolbars......
