Pedit problem.

[Glen1980]

When I first tried to use LISP files I couldn't add the files to the Program Files folder because of the admin rights that had been added to my machine.

In any event, I actually DID NOT have success using OVERKILL on the file in the first message. Overkill did erase 6 objects, but the remaining 6 were still closed polylines that required additional editing before they could be combined.

I'm assuming that's one of the drawbacks to working for a big company (tighter control).

No problem here doing so.

Which version did you test with. In 2012, the code was changed and OVERKILL became a core command with more/different options than the Express tool version. I tested with 2011, because that's the closest version I have to the OP's version (2010)

2015. I uninstalled all of my earlier versions.

[nestly]

Yeah, the revamped Overkill works in 2012-2015, but it doesn't do anything to the closed/overlapping plines in 2011.

[ReMark]

I have to admit that I was unaware the command had been revamped. I'll blame it on my old glasses.

For future reference, here's a copy of the ET dialog vs the AutoCAD core dialog.

Thank you nestly. I'll have to earmark this thread.

The link I posted has several LISPs in code tags, all you need to do is copy to notepad and name with a .lsp extension, no downloading needed. Place in a folder and add the location to the support file search path.

 

As far as that goes, you can OPEN the Overkill.lsp file posted by nestly and copy paste that one into notepad.
