Reload current drawing

[Sathalex]

Hello everyone!
Please tell me how to programmatically reload the current drawing with the request to save changes.
It is necessary that the drawing is closed and immediately opened, I repeat, with a request to save the changes or not.
Thanks to everyone who will help.

You could try a simple script, writing the script as required so the dwg name is relevant. last line in the lisp etc is (command "script" "close-open")

Close Y
open dwgname

open dwgname

maybe:

(or vl-bb-set (load "blackboard.lsp"))(vl-bb-set 'dwgpath (strcat(getvar "dwgprefix")(getvar "dwgname")))
Close Y
(vl-load-com)(vla-activate(vla-open (vla-get-documents (vlax-get-acad-object))(vl-bb-ref 'dwgpath) :vlax-false))

Hi,

If you have the Express Tools installed on your system along with AutoCAD then you can use the command Revert but you need to install the VBA related link and the command would give you the link if its not already installed.

Personally I use this command a lot.

Hello Tom.
This is a good way, only the active drawing is not closed, but opens again without the possibility to edit it.
