Probably the variable (CHANGEHEIGHT) in the coordinates on the move command. The value of DIAM isn't set so it could change. If there is a simpler way to move a 'ENTLAST' in z value i would like to hear. I tried the 'CHANGE' command to change Elevation, but that doesn't seem to work on solids for the lack of an 'elevation' property.

marko_ribar Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 (edited) You need to close bracket before you comment line...

OMEGA-ThundeR Posted March 22 Author Share Posted March 22 Hmz.. that was an easy mistake. But i wonder if that would fix anything. Cause in my case it still doesn't move the object after correcting that error. But if i change the 'CHANGEHEIGHT' to a number, the object does move.

marko_ribar Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 (edited) You are using qouted lists that AutoCAD literarily read... Instead of this, you have to say to CAD that the lists in final line has to be evaluated... So, instead of this line : (command "_.move" CIRSWEEP "" "_non" '(0 0 0) "_non" '(0 0 CHANGEHEIGHT)) You should write it like this : (command "_.move" CIRSWEEP "" "_non" (list 0 0 0) "_non" (list 0 0 CHANGEHEIGHT)) That's all - it should work now as expected...

Well, that LIST part worked like a charm (only did it on the part with the variable! Care to explain why 'list' does make it work?
