diable draworder (nc polaris error)

[briankstan]

I need to disable the draworder and remove the setting that it puts in the drawing.

 

What I have is a situation where we wblock a CNC program from an autocad drawing, then we use that new drawing to program the CNC with a program called RounterCIM that generates the G-code for the Milling process.

 

however, it the draw order command was used in the drawing it gives and error and won't open the file because of the draw order command.

 

if you have any ideas on what I could try I'd appreciate it.

 

thanks

thanks for your help, I tried set the sortents to "0" to disable it, but I'm still getting the same error.

 

what they program suggests it to copyclip the items, place in a new drawing and then do a save as. it appears that the draworder information is lost when using copyclip.

 

anyone know of a way to use copyclip and qnew in a lisp routine to speed up this process?
