If you mean that script-generated coordinates shouldn't be influenced by OSNAP, check the OSNAPCOORD variable (should be > 0).]]> Tue, 29 May 2012 09:53:44 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=7873&PID=20373&title=scripts-autocad2011-problem#20373 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=7873&PID=20372&title=scripts-autocad2011-problem#20372 Author: NAOb

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

Your endpoints may get "osnapped" to the existing geometry. Try to switch off osnaps (OSNAP=0).]]> Tue, 29 May 2012 08:36:46 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=7873&PID=20370&title=scripts-autocad2011-problem#20370 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=7873&PID=20318&title=scripts-autocad2011-problem#20318 Author: NAOb

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
-22.2875183144474,884.034198085051,0

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

All is well, but when I start differently:

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

_cylinder 0,-6.13672013486127,-5

_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?

Regards
Norbert
