How can I trim entities in an array? I can make the array just fine, but I don't know why it won't let me trim them. I suppose it's trying to keep references to the array and the original entity that the array is based off of, but at this point I don't wish to keep that information. For what I'm doing I could just use offset but that is time consuming.

 

Thanks!

If the array is one entity, you should be able to explode it. Then you can work with the individual entities.

 

Welcome to the forum!

Are you arraying blocks ? these may not trim.

 

maybe try Cookiecutter.lsp search here

 

Also you can do stuff like trim to a pline using the "F" option

2012 has associative arrays, you can use the arrayclassic command, or just explode the associative array and then trim.

Another way of doing it.... when in array command at the end it says:

 

Press Enter to accept or [ASsociative/Base point/Rows/Columns/Levels/eXit]

 

Type AS for associative and then NO.

 

Saves you having to explode them after :-)

Good to know about this, too.

I was not arraying blocks, but I will keep this in mind.

Another helpful tip, thank you.
