Are you thinking about an extension of the LAYMCUR command? That one changes the current layer to an object you select. You want to change the current color, linetype, and linetype scale to that object's properties as well as the layer. Is that correct?

Set up a drawing template. CAD Standards Checker might work for you as well.

After reading again the program, I can see that it can be improved for speed. Not big deal, but the variable “h” is raised at square twice, in two different program lines. You could place the result of (* h h) in a variable when it first occurs, and use that value instead of calculating it again. With this change it will process those 2000 triangles in 2.99999999 secs instead of 3!

The backslash character in AutoLISP is an escape character, used to give the characters which follow it an alternatively meaning - for example, \n represents a newline, \t represents a tab character, \" represents a literal double quote (as opposed to a string delimiter). As such, if you want to represent a literal backslash in a string, this must be preceded by another backslash to mark it as a literal as opposed to the start of another escape character sequence (i.e. the first backslash is an escape character which gives the second backslash an alternative meaning, marking it as a literal character). The reason that you only see one backslash everywhere else in the GUI is because the backslash is only an escape character in AutoLISP (and other programming languages).

This may be helpful. Trying to remember I think it was by number rather than Description. Some are not obvious (getvar 'dimblk) "Architectural tick" is "ArchTick" "Box" is "BoxBlank" "Dot" is "Dot" To find others change dimstyle arrows and (getvar 'dimblk)

Someone has to explain to me the difference between these two triangles of the same dimensions...!
