Hi, I found and modify a lisp routine, I would like to know if it is on the right track. Also to mention that I don't really understand all the mechanics of it but first, here's what I want to achieve :

 

-I have a Layer named "Arch - Niveau 1"

-I would like to enter in the command prompt "a11"

-It would read if the layer is frozen or thawed and if it is frozen, it will thaw it (? sorry bad english) And if the layer is thawed, it would freeze it

 

That's it!

 

What could be added is:

To check up if the layer exists and if not, create it.

Would do the same for 2 other layer named "Arch - Niveau 2" command "a22" and "Arch - Niveau 3" command "a33". Is it clear?

 

Now the lisp I've found and modified is this:

 

(defun c:a11 (/ lay ldef flag)
 (setq layn "Arch - Niveau 1")

 (command "_.LAYER")
 (if (not (tblsearch "LAYER" layn))
     (command "_Make" layn)
     (progn
       (setq ldef (tblsearch "LAYER" layn)
             flag (cdr (assoc 70 ldef)))
       (and (= (logand flag  1)  1)
            (command "_Thaw" layn))
       ))
 (command "")
)

 

This lisp looks if it exists, if not, create it and only thaw the layer.

 

I'm not sure I want to understand all the mechanics because I'm not enough familiar with the "not", the "progn" the "flag", "and" and "logand" (!!!!)

 

Can you help me complete my lisp please?

Thanks a lot ! :)

Hi Troispistols, welcome to CADTutor :)

 

For your task, I would delegate the operation of creating, freezing or thawing a layer to a subfunction, and pass the subfunction the layer name, for example:

 

(defun c:a11 nil (FreezeThawLayer "Arch - Niveau 1"))
(defun c:a22 nil (FreezeThawLayer "Arch - Niveau 2"))
(defun c:a33 nil (FreezeThawLayer "Arch - Niveau 3"))

(defun FreezeThawLayer ( layer / dx en )
   (if (null (setq en (tblobjname "LAYER" layer)))
       (entmake
           (list
              '(0 . "LAYER")
              '(100 . "AcDbSymbolTableRecord")
              '(100 . "AcDbLayerTableRecord")
               (cons 2 layer)
              '(70 . 0)
           )
       )
       (setq en (entget en)
             dx (assoc 70 en)
             en (entmod (subst (cons 70 (boole 6 1 (cdr dx))) dx en))
       )
   )
   (princ)
)

Wow! I'm very happy for your extremly quick and efficient answer! Thank you for your time it is a pleasure!

 

In a new drawing with 2 rectangles it works good but in my existing drawing sometimes it work sometimes not.

 

Now I'v closed Acad and reopen my drawing, reload the lisp, and nothing happen when I hit "a1" (Yess I change it to "a1" instead of "a11")

 

(defun c:a1 nil (FreezeThawLayer "Arch - Niveau 1"))
(defun c:a2 nil (FreezeThawLayer "Arch - Niveau 2"))
(defun c:a3 nil (FreezeThawLayer "Arch - Niveau 3"))

(defun FreezeThawLayer ( layer / dx en )
   (if (null (setq en (tblobjname "LAYER" layer)))
       (entmake
           (list
              '(0 . "LAYER")
              '(100 . "AcDbSymbolTableRecord")
              '(100 . "AcDbLayerTableRecord")
               (cons 2 layer)
              '(70 . 0)
           )
       )
       (setq en (entget en)
             dx (assoc 70 en)
             en (entmod (subst (cons 70 (boole 6 1 (cdr dx))) dx en))
       )
   )
   (princ)
)

 

 

 

Thanks, I hope you can help me

The program works everytime for me, it's a simple code so I can't what could cause it to fail - are the Layers being frozen/thawed but the objects maybe not being updated?

 

Maybe this will solve it:

 

(defun c:a1 nil (FreezeThawLayer "Arch - Niveau 1"))
(defun c:a2 nil (FreezeThawLayer "Arch - Niveau 2"))
(defun c:a3 nil (FreezeThawLayer "Arch - Niveau 3"))

(defun FreezeThawLayer ( layer / dx en in ss )
   (if (null (setq en (tblobjname "LAYER" layer)))
       (entmake
           (list
              '(0 . "LAYER")
              '(100 . "AcDbSymbolTableRecord")
              '(100 . "AcDbLayerTableRecord")
               (cons 2 layer)
              '(70 . 0)
           )
       )
       (if
           (and
               (setq en (entget en)
                     dx (assoc 70 en)
                     en (entmod (subst (cons 70 (boole 6 1 (cdr dx))) dx en))
               )
               (setq ss (ssget "_X" (list (cons 8 layer))))
           )
           (repeat (setq in (sslength ss))
               (entupd (ssname ss (setq in (1- in))))
           )
       )
   )
   (princ)
)

Ok, thanks it seems to have solve the problem. It is 1 block of an "architecture floor plan" with many layers in it for each of the 3 layers (1 block for 1 layer) if it could help you understand what happened.

 

Thanks, seems to work fine!

 

Impressive! :D

Oh!

 

Now for the first time I can't open the layer manager (set to old layer manager variable) by clicking the button on the tool bar it says:

Do you have an idea what cause that and how do get it back?

That doesn't look LISP related, but rather something to do with .NET; certainly not caused by my simple code...

Did this only in one drawing

Tried the audit command and doesn't work

Okay, thanks for your answer.

 

Have a nice weekend

Hi,

 

Is it possible that when I load autocad, load my DWG, that if the layer is already frozen the command does nothing ? I have to unfreeze each of the layer at first for the command to work... any ideas ?

 

-edit-

Or... as i'm trying it, when I run the command ( "a1" ) it does nothing even if I thaw the layer... what seems to be in conflict with the lisp is that my layer is locked. The layer thawed as I unlocked it... again, any idea?

 

Thanks

Posted

The program appears to function as intended in my environment; locked layers won't affect its operation, and similarly, if the layer is already frozen, it will simply be thawed. The only thing that would affect the freeze operation is if the layer is current when frozen, though, this could also be accounted for using a simple conditional to check the layer against the setting of the CLAYER System Variable:

 

(defun c:a1 nil (FreezeThawLayer "Arch - Niveau 1"))
(defun c:a2 nil (FreezeThawLayer "Arch - Niveau 2"))
(defun c:a3 nil (FreezeThawLayer "Arch - Niveau 3"))

(defun FreezeThawLayer ( layer / dx en in ss )
   (if (null (setq en (tblobjname "LAYER" layer)))
       (entmake
           (list
              '(0 . "LAYER")
              '(100 . "AcDbSymbolTableRecord")
              '(100 . "AcDbLayerTableRecord")
               (cons 2 layer)
              '(70 . 0)
           )
       )
       (if
           (and
               (not (eq (strcase (getvar 'CLAYER)) (strcase layer)))
               (setq en (entget en)
                     dx (assoc 70 en)
                     en (entmod (subst (cons 70 (boole 6 1 (cdr dx))) dx en))
               )
               (setq ss (ssget "_X" (list (cons 8 layer))))
           )
           (repeat (setq in (sslength ss))
               (entupd (ssname ss (setq in (1- in))))
