alanjt Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 Following the request from JeepMaster, I have updated the code for Dynamic Offset to Version 1.6 As always, your suggestions are welcome Lee New code can be found here. Did the subroutine I posted help? Quote
Lee Mac Posted December 9, 2009 Author Posted December 9, 2009 Thanks Alan, But I didn't use it in the end - as you can see from the way that I implemented the offset, there is no need to tell which side to offset But thank you for your offering. Lee Quote

Lee Mac Posted December 10, 2009 Author Posted December 10, 2009 Following a suggestion from one of the guys over at theSwamp.org, I have updated the code for the Dynamic Offset to Version 1.7 In this version the user may toggle the option to retain/delete the original objects selected by pressing 'D'. As always, your comments and suggestions for improvement are welcome Enjoy! Lee The New code can be found here. Quote

JeepMaster Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 I'm finding this lisp to be more and more useful. Lee you really should change the preview clip to include polylines instead of just curves/circles. When I first saw the clip, I thought it will only do curves, but it actually does polylines also. This is VERY useful when doing wiring diagram. If I need to add a new set of wires, all I need to do is run the lisp and it will create it the entire length with offset. In the pass, I would have to trace the entire path and make offset lines. Again, THANKS SO MUCH Lee! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup: I want to buy you a beer, what happen to your donation link? Quote

You're very welcome Jeep - Its great to know that my program is saving you time (and lowering stress levels ), I probably should update the clip as you say - as the program can do a lot more since I made that first clip. As for the beer - I believe the Paypal links were removed due to the public uproar that ensued when they were added... but I can send you my email address (I think that's all you need). Many thanks Jeep once again for your kind post Lee Quote
Lee Mac Posted December 14, 2009 Author Posted December 14, 2009 Following a suggestion over at theSwamp.org, I have updated the code for Dynamic Offset to Version 1.8 - this version provides the ability to offset to the center of two objects. The new code can be found here. Enjoy! Lee Quote
JeepMaster Posted December 14, 2009 Posted December 14, 2009 That is great Lee, it just keeps getting better and better. I find this center option pretty useful too. Another suggestion: What if I want to add 2 or more offset lines while using the "center" option. Is that possible? I tried using the "+/-" and the "number" while using the "center" option, but the "center" option only makes 1 offset line. Quote

I tried using the "+/-" and the "number" while using the "center" option, but the "center" option only makes 1 offset line. If you choose your lines using [N]umber or +/- before entering the [C]enter option, this will offset the correct number of lines Quote
JeepMaster Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 Lee, I've tried it again and it still isn't working like I wanted. Baically I have 2 lines and I want to add more lines in between the 2. ie: Line 1 and Line 2, now I want to add 2,3, or 4 lines centered between Line 1 and Line 2. So I would offset Line 1 with N=4 and pick center option, then click Line 1 and Line 2. The result isn't centered between Line 1 and Line 2. Maybe I'm asking too much. Quote
Lee Mac Posted December 15, 2009 Author Posted December 15, 2009 Its due to the fact that additional lines are offset past the cursor position - I believe this could be altered, I shall look into it Quote
Lee Mac Posted December 16, 2009 Author Posted December 16, 2009 I have updated the code for the Dynamic Offset to Version 1.9. In this version, I have changed the way that the program handles multiple offsets, and have also made an important bug fix for the OSnap. The New code can be found here. Lee Quote
