Class Description: AutoLISP® has been around for a long time and has always separated the AutoCAD® green thumbs from the gurus. This course begins by debunking some popular rumors that AutoLISP is going away and that AutoCAD VBA is better than AutoLISP. Both languages have their strengths and weaknesses. The amount of AutoLISP code used in CADdependent industries today remains tremendous, and AutoLISP is more powerful today than ever. It's free, it's gentle and forgiving, and it provides users with the ability to create new AutoCAD commands in minutes. This class helps seasoned AutoCAD users enter the world of customization and programming using AutoCAD's native graphical language. The class provides over 30 examples of code to help you understand the syntax of this language. The material is designed for intermediate-level AutoCAD users who have never programmed in AutoLISP before.
