smitaranjan Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 LEGEND.LSP Hi anyone can modify the code so it can create legends for both and linetypes with their layer name in description. It's a lee mac's program which creating legend in model space. If by touching the viewport it can make legend at layout whatever showing in the viewport it will be a great help.

Steven P Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 (edited) So in his LISP I bet there is an 'ssget' line to select the objects, keeping with Lee Mac look at his ssget reference (http://lee-mac.com/ssget.html) and there is an option in there to change that to 'window' selection... all we need to do is work out the window This LISP will draw the viewport area in modelspace - if that can be adjusted to give the coordinates and not draw anything then job done https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/visual-lisp-autolisp-and-general/outline-projection-all-viewports-to-model/td-p/3254748 or https://jtbworld.com/autocad-vp-outline-lsp Do you reckon you can work it out from there?

No may be...how these will help? they have to create extra viewport in layout for legend. Also legend.lsp only make legend for linetype that it makes line continuous and it does not include blocks in legend..I want it to create like this.

Steven P Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 But with the new viewport rectangle will let you use ssget to select the objects, and I am sure there are some changes that can be made in the layers LISP to get say blocks and so on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven P Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 (edited) Something like this, command is trythis, no nice stuff added like errors, undo, or clear instructions...

BIGAL Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 (edited) I can see problems with a make legend not in the sense of get linetypes and blocks but rather in the descriptions, if you look closely. Some of the descriptions are 3 lines long. So they would need to be excluded and say added manually, else you need a look up for them and get the details. So make all linetypes then make Blocks, the SRS linetypes need to be added last. Move the pothole and Bore pit up. Simplest way is to have the Buried fibre and Interduct as external blocks and Insert. Need a real dwg to do real testing. Steven P pretty sure this returns the 4 corners of a viewport in mspace will try to have a look at Lee's code. Note Twistangle for rotated viewports. Used for grids in layouts. (command "._PSPACE") (setq sss (ssget "_+.:E:S" (list (cons 0 "Viewport")))) (setq cspace (cdr (assoc 69 (entget (ssname sss 0))))) (setq obj (vlax-ename->vla-object (ssname sss 0))) (if (= (vla-get-objectname obj) "AcDbViewport") (progn (setq cen (vlax-get obj 'Center )) (setq ht (vlax-get obj 'Height)) (setq wid (vlax-get obj 'Width)) (if (> ht wid) (setq dist (* 0.8 ht)) (setq dist (* 0.8 wid)) ) (setq sc (vlax-get obj 'customscale )) (setq ang (vlax-get obj 'TwistAngle)) (setq xmin (- (car cen)(/ wid 2.0))) (setq xmax (+ (car cen)(/ wid 2.0))) (setq ymin (- (cadr cen)(/ ht 2.0))) (setq ymax (+ (cadr cen)(/ ht 2.0))) (command "zoom" "c" cen 2000) (command "Mspace") (setvar 'cvport cspace) (command "UCS" "w") Edited June 3, 2023 by BIGAL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven P Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Thanks BigAL, I tried that code, gives me the coordinates of the actual viewport? Wanted to coordinates of the area it shows but it did give me some thoughts about angles and so on. Still busy here but something to think about. i think for this one my next step is what the OP needs to show in the legend - it is showing the details from lines and their layers just now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 I will look into the original code more thought it was correct use trans to convert the corners to world. Read my comments about some of the legends being inserted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven P Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 That is OK, just checking we are going in the right direction for you. Does it select the view port area OK as you want? A question from what BigAl said earlier, are any of your viewports rotated or are they all aligned to model space? For the blocks, are you just wanting a list of all the blocks and then the block name: For example: [block lines] Block Name Should be easy to add, all drawn in black (or whatever layer 0 is set to) Linetype? Not sure what you want for here get the legend details as you want and the insertion point is easy. perhaps while I think about this you could find out the ssget code to select just blocks - will help me in the blocks part of the legend (Note to others... this is a good learning point for the OP to start making up their own LISPS......)

Steven P Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 (edited) Yup, working this out as and when I get a moment, lots of parts and not finished. This is the basics of adding the blocks to the legend For inserting the legend in paper space, you could look at the code below and perhaps using an internet search work out where to put the switch back to paper space - saves me a task and I've decided that is something you can add and learn a little too. This replaces 'c:legend' in the code above (defun C:LEGEND ( sscoords / *error* acdoc acobj an co e hs ht i la lst bnlst lt p p1 p2 p3 space ss st ro dr) (defun emakeline ( x p1 / ) (entmake (list '(0 .

Steven P Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Slight update to mine above just part way to lining the blocks and text up nicer - let us know though if Tharwats solution works for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven P Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Unfortunately, that's the way things are - a dedicated and speedy response or take things slower and get something that might not be exactly what you want. In defence of paying for a LISP, most bosses are reluctant unless you can demonstrate that the cost will give a decent time saving - which is all I want, a few LISPs that gives me 10 minutes extra in the day to make a nice cup of tea, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
