Mlisp Creation

[prose]

*edit - I meant to put Mleader in the subject, sorry.*

I am trying to find a lisp routine that will create a Mleader Style and make it current.
I have done a search here and google and have yet to find what I'm looking for.
I was hoping that someone on this site would already have something similar.
Thanks ahead of time.

If your search was for "Mleader" you should have found the following thread:

Mleader Lisp

The code to create mleaders was there, and will set the last one created as the current style

*edit - I see this was linked above, and that you're having issues with it... It was originally utilized in 2008

Sorry Prose,

I'm also using AutoCAD 2008, and I have no error message.
Can you see where it happens?

Try the attached, it's the same code, just has multiple mleaders on creation. The arrowhead styles were loaded off of another drawing that I had embedded into the template, I can't find that right now, not at the right computer to get to it.

It's working for me in both 2008 & 2009

Dear Bill,

Where are _dot.dwg and _dotblank.dwg?

Regards, HofCAD CSI.

[blybrook]

_dot.dwg and _dotblank.dwg are embedded into my template now & the originals are on another computer that I can't get to at this time. The call out can be changed to any particular arrowhead style you wish. I didn't edit the code to remove that call out before I posted it.

If I can get to those drawings today, I'll edit the post and add them as well.

Its wierd, the first one had an issue, but the "mlsetup.lsp" worked fine.

Dear Bill,

Where are _dot.dwg and _dotblank.dwg?

I just created my own block and named it "_dot.dwg" and "_dotblank.dwg" and put it in my paths. It seems to work just fine.

Thank you all for your help.
