Hello - very nice LISP. If it is to be inserted possibly the visibility status by dynamic blocks?

True, perhaps I could add this as an option in a future version

Thank you - this would be great. I have some symbols about the visibility status of dynamic blocks.

I am the same as mexxx, an option to specify visibility states of some sort. I have one dynamic block of a FCU, with 7 visibilities all different FCU's (fused connection units) A count for a specific one would be good.

Haven't got much time recently guys, but I'll see to it when I can.

[monk]

no problemo, all your stuff is great! Cheers!

Lee,

 

I've been searching far and wide for something like this. You really went the whole nine yards on the output. Counting all the blocks, dynamic or otherwise, would have been great, but the table with the previews is fantastic.

Thanks Bill, I'm really glad you like the program - I enjoyed writing it

Hi this works great - the proble is my blocks have an attribute letter that is changed by the user.

ie the same block called "600x600" might be labelled with an A or any letter.

This would then be repeated around the drawing.

So in summary we use the same block for different uses and change its value.

in your table i only get the default letters appear and not the user enterred ones - could you quickly change a line or two so that is outputs that into the table instead.

hope this is poss - and realise we all have normal jobs too.

 

thanks

Hi Piscopatos,

 

I can't seem to reproduce that - does it still happen after restarting AutoCAD?

[piscopatos]

its been a while now since this error occured, i restarted the autocad alot since then. it used to work just fine but after i installed autocad mep 2010, i got this lovely error pumpin up on the command line. i uninstalled the autocad and autocad mep then reinstalled just the autocad to get the count command workin and running again but there was no use.

it would be great to be able to use this again.

Ok, to determine at what line the code fails, you can use the VLIDE:

 

 

• VLIDE at the command line.
  

 

• Open Count.lsp (Ctrl+O)
  

 

• Debug Menu >> Break on Error (ticked)
  

 

• Load Program (Ctrl+Alt+E)
  

 

• AutoCAD: Run Program
  

 

• VLIDE: Debug Menu >> Last Break Source
  

[ Post the code that fails ]

• VLIDE: Reset Error (Ctrl+R)

(logand 45 (cdr (assoc 70 (tblsearch "BLOCK" (setq n (BlockName obj))))))
