Costinbos77 Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 What editor you use for programming in AutoLISP? There are other possibilities than AutoCAD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 In the past any ASCII text editor could be used to create lisp routines. Notepad is just such one. I don't know what most people use these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costinbos77 Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 (edited) But you, what do you use when writing vlisp programs ? It is very difficult to program in Notpade because it is hard to follow the closing parenthesis, function name ....

ReMark Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I have no idea what that first sentence means. Then look into using the Visual Lisp IDE, a developer tool supplied with most versions of full AutoCAD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLW210 Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Hi there, has anyone encountered the following problem in AutoCAD 2007 ? To copy some objects from a drawing and then you paste them in another drawing command 'Paste to original coordinates ', but this command line is not active (available in window of right click and then use the option 'Paste to Original Coordinates'). It is an AutoCAD bug that remains to this day. If grayed out in the Right-Click menu it is usually available in Edit menu and sometimes vise versa. As mentioned by irneb, seems to happen most often in paper space. Also,as mentioned by irneb, use CopyBase (0,0,0) and Paste (0,0,0).

irneb Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Bat you, wath us ? It is very difficult to program in Notpade because it is hard to follow the closing parenthesis, function name .... You may use any text editor you wish, since a LSP file is simply a text file (preferably saved in ANSI/ASCII text codes). Personally I like Notepad++ and SciTe, but the built-in VLIDE in AutoCAD (as Remark mentioned) isn't bad either - it's got the added advantage of debugging/watch/inspect/appropos/console/keyword-help inside acad.

Costinbos77 Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 I use AutoCAD VLIDE, for all the advantages mentioned above. I do not know as Notepad + + or SciTe, but I will make inquiries. For SLW210 and irneb: is a good idea to solve the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 If you have questions about lisp programming then I would suggest you start a new thread in the proper forum. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
