End points

[james.craft]

I have been creating new line types using Autocad 2008 to replace existing lines in 2d and isometric drawing. Is there any tool or program that would switch the end points if the lines were orginally drawn from right to left and not left to right. As to allow the text of the new linetypes to be orientd in the right direction.

Thanks for any help.

Try the two attached LSP routines

flip.lsp is not working dear. please check it and send again. thanks

First, under "PEDIT" turn on "Ltype gen".

Then run this lisp routine "rpoly.lsp" if you need to.

One other thing, when you join the lines to make them polylines, select the line that has the text oriented correctly first, this sometimes flips the other lines to that orientation.

Good Luck
Bob

Another late thought - if they are simple lines, just Rotate them 180 degrees each about its midpoint.

Please note I have *moved* this thread from the AutoCAD Tips & Tricks Forum to this one as I feel this particular Forum is a more appropriate place for such a topic.

Thanks,
