Find an existing routine or, better yet, code the following LISP program as a novice programmer.
Goal: To streamline setting existing CAD file dimensions (linear, angular, etc.) to a preset dimension style.
Source Dimension Style: A source .txt file per each preset a.k.a., "drafting standard", dimension style holding all dimension settings.
Steps:
- Start the routine
- Code includes:
3. Include dimension size/appearance/scale recognition for preserving the existing dimension style's scale (especially important for model space-based dimensions).
- User selection from a list of desired standard/preset dimension style to apply (styles stored in text-based data files)
- User can apply the selected dimension style to either ALL existing dimensions or by SINGLE selection of dimensions
Can someone enlighten me with code portion snippets, routine examples, or add to the above steps that should be included?
Thanks,
Clint
