ktbjx Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 my coworkers are really close minded so they dont want the preset from cad. plus our boss dont want it to so we do our own scale bar, now i was wondering if this can make our work easier by making a lisp to make scale bar ranging from 1:10 - 1:1000 1:10 1:20 1:30 1:40.......... we are dealing with maps, so its in meters.... can anyone help me make one? pretty please?

ReMark Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Sounds like something that could either be handled by a regular block or a dynamic block. Using lisp to create a scale bar seems like overkill. Quote
SLW210 Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Yes, just make a block or blocks, dynamic would be easier IMO, then use LISP, Menus, etc. to insert. See this thread on Autodesk site for Lee Mac's code on Inserting Dynamic Blocks and setting a Visibility State. http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/visual-lisp-autolisp-and-general/insert-dynamic-block-with-visibility-state-pre-selected/td-p/4713881 Quote
BIGAL Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 Yeah just pick the scale bar as a predefined block from say a tool palette or in our case from a drop down menu. Quote
ReMark Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 Dynamic metric/imperial scale bar can be found here... http://www.cadforum.cz/catalog_en/block.asp?blk=13231 Quote
