text, line, circle, hatch LISP routine HELP me make

[ktbjx]

can you help me make a list routine that will make those?? i have a sample DWG file attached... my co worker is dealing with these and it takes a lot of time, specially we are dealing with tons of datas do put in cad...

 

note:

Settings = in units, METERS > clockwise > Direction North

LINE = the length varies but line ALWAYS STARS from ABOVE. so the angle should always be between 90 to 270..

TEXT = constant 0.3 height... this is where we input 2 values. the top value and the bottom value

Circle = it will depend on how long the line is

Hatch = we use gradient white and blue color

 

 

can anyone help me??? im just trying to maximize our productivity because 1 map takes forever to complete... maybe if we have this routine, it will be faster

BTW, the settings, we do it manually o every DWG so no need to add it on the lisp thank you in advance!!!!

Why do you need a lisp routine? Couldn't this be a block with two attributes? Doesn't the color choice for hatching the circle make reading the numbers difficult? There isn't a lot of contrast.

 

 

Finished block on right. The diameter of the circle is such that the number 99.99 could still fit above and below the dividing line.

actually the hatch color differes demending on value2. i just dont want to add it on the lisp, because i feel like asking too much if i added it

Then it sounds like it isn't really needed. But why a lisp routine? The above is just a block with attributes. Make it once and use it many times. You will still have to insert (or copy) it, rotate it and change the values. What advantage does creating this using a lisp routine provide you?

thats what we're doing right now, and it still takes too much time, i thought if lisp routine, we just make the line then input 2 values then thats it! the lisp do the rest!

Your drawing did not contain any blocks. I doubt a lisp routine would make the process any faster unless the values were going to be incremented as each symbol was inserted. Is that the case here?

 

BTW...what line are you making? Was there supposed to be a line from the symbol that connects to an object or point? Once again YOUR drawing did not indicate this.

i didnt block any of it because its just a sample, the line varies, and values varies too, so even if we use block, we still need to align the line on the direction its supposed to be and make sure the length is correct too, so time consuming still.

but if its on lisp, all we have to do is create the line and input the values, thus faster... i think?

It could be accomplished using a dynamic block with a line length that can not only shrink and grow but can rotate 360 degrees if need be. You're over thinking in my opinion.

 

BTW...if you are asking someone to design something specific to your needs you ought to provide as good an example as you can so they have all the information they need right from the beginning.

 

So you want the lisp routine to already know which block will be used then prompt for 1) insertion point, 2) length of line, 3) rotation angle, 4) Value1 and 5) Value2. Is that about it or did I miss something?

 

Re: LINE = the length varies but line ALWAYS STARTS from ABOVE. so the angle should always be between 90 to 270. What increments would you want to limit the line rotation to (ex. - 10 degrees) or isn't this necessary?
