MarcoW Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 A long time ago I used a lisp file that worked almost the same as the "ddatte" function / dialog. I believe it was part of an application, that I no longer work with since several years. One big difference to the ommon "ddatte dialog" was that it had toggle switches (checkboxes) to set the attribute to visible / invisible. Does anyone around still have that / such routine? I'd be glad to get a copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Mac Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 This will make your Atts invisible: (defun c:invis (/ ent obj) (vl-load-com) (while (setq ent (car (nentsel "\nSelect Attribute: "))) (if (eq "ATTRIB" (cdr (assoc 0 (entget ent)))) (vlax-put (setq obj (vlax-ename->vla-object ent)) 'invisible -1))) (princ)) Or, as a different functionality, this will make all tags with the listed name visible/invisible: Upon Selection (defun c:am1 (/ tag ss att obj) (vl-load-com) (setq tag "TAG1") (while (setq ss (ssget "_+.:E:S" '((0 . "INSERT") (66 . 1)))) (foreach att (append (vlax-invoke (setq obj (vlax-ename->vla-object (ssname ss 0))) 'GetAttributes) (vlax-invoke obj 'GetConstantAttributes)) (if (eq tag (strcase (vla-get-TagString att))) (vlax-put att 'Invisible (~ (vlax-get att 'Invisible)))))) (princ)) All Blocks: (defun c:am2 (/ tag ss sel) (vl-load-com) (setq tag "TAG1") ;; <<-- Tag to be Searched (and (setq ss (ssget "_X" '((0 .
