    <![CDATA[<strong>Author:</strong> <a href="https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/member_profile.asp?PF=669041">cjhooka</a><br /><strong>Subject:</strong> 12291<br /><strong>Posted:</strong> 15.Apr.2017 at 22:12<br /><br />Hi, I've spent all night reading up forums trying to find someone who's had the same request for a lisp but to no avail.&nbsp;<img src="https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/smileys/smiley19.gif" border="0" alt="Cry" title="Cry" /><br><div>this'll probably be my first post, but I've been lurking around this forum for a while now (using it for the awesome resource that it is) and after coming up dry I thought I should ask.<br><div><br></div><div>Well at the moment I'm using the RECTANG command, picking the first point, hitting D for Dimension, have to then Hatch it as Solid, followed by entering Mtext centered within the RECTANG which would include the Room/Rectangle Name and Size. This seems really long winded... Without yet knowing how to write the code myself, what I would like to have is a lisp that includes the following:</div><div><br></div><div>Prompts:</div><div>- Asking to pick start point.</div><div>- Asking to specify length and width in millimeters.</div><div>- Asking to specify room name.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Autonomously:</div><div>- To draw the rectangle using the current layer @ 100mm thickness.</div><div>- To solid hatch the rectangle created using a layer I have which is named: "-- NON PLOT --" or "defpoints"</div><div>- To insert Mtext with the Room name as the first line (Geometric Center of the Rectangle).</div><div>- To insert the dimensions for the room as the second line of the Mtext (displayed as meters eg: 10.5 x 8.0m).</div><div>- To draw a point @ 50mm off of each corner of the Rectangle.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Any help would be greatly appreciated. <img src="https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/smileys/smiley32.gif" border="0" alt="Clap" title="Clap" />&nbsp;(Pretty sure this is easy for those that are beyond picking apart shared LISP's to try get an understanding of what's going on).</div><div><br></div><div>Kind regards,</div><div><br></div><div>CJ.</div></div>]]>
