Hi,

I used to a lisp which I can Copy a item and Rotate it directly (1 comment only)

Is that possible in Autocad LT 2006 ?

Somebody kindly advise....

Thanks

Hi

AutoCAD LT will only run LISP routines if you acquire (already have) some Third Party piece of software that enables ARX, LISP, VBA etc functionality within AutoCAD LT.

If you do not have (or intend to acquire) such a piece of software you will have to look at building a Command Macro using the ._Copy & ._Rotate commands.

Have a good one, Mike

Hi

Plus, some alternative methods that might be worth looking at...

leave original when rotating (http://forums.augi.com/showthread.php?t=10697)

Rotate while copy, viceversa..alternative for polar array (http://forums.augi.com/showthread.php?t=24806)

I just made one for someone I work with- so here it is....

(DEFUN C:RC()(COMMAND "COPY" PAUSE PAUSE "END" PAUSE "END" PAUSE "ROTATE"))


type rc to get it to run. Please not that the copy point is based on the end of , and will place the object directly on top of the original one, until it rotates!

"kssow" (Sorry, I don't know your real name), is using AutoCAD LT therefore a LISP solution is no good to them (unless they are using some Third Party piece of software that enables ARX, LISP, VBA etc functionality within AutoCAD LT).
