Hi,
I'm trying to create a sundial (board, stick, shadow) for various locations with a script file. Coordinates are created by an Excel program and then copied into the script.
When I write in the script (language is German)
Three layers - board, lines & stick do exist already in the drawing:

_line 0,0,0

_line 0,0,0
-22.2875183144474,884.034198085051,0

****************************************************

All is well, but when I start differently:

_line 0,0,0
-22.2875183144474,884.034198085051,0

************************************************

The lines do not start from 0,0,0 as I would expect, but from a point near the stick. And the longest line does not make sense at all.

Any idea where I go wrong?

Norbert

Thanks,
it worked, even if it doesn't makes any sense.
In this German installation of AutoCAD the osnap = ofang = F3
Thanks again.
