Autocad to Draftsight, im losing my hair over this.

[Martin van Stigt Thans]

Dear Lisp pro`s

 

I have a perfectly nice functioning lisp routine for AutoCAD, however Draftsight doesn't want to do 1 thing.

 

So here's the thing, we have to get all the entities from layer 0 transformed were magenta will be white and color 40 will be yellow, this all works like a charm.

 

A list is created with the proper selections for export thru for example 

(setq zoek (ssget "X" (list(cons 62 6))))

 

so whap happens is, everything gets set to the right color but when using.

 

(command "dxfout" naam1 "v" "r12" "O" zoek "" "16")

 

it does indeed export to dxf but it exports everything, the command manager clearly says theres a few errors.,

 

I have tried so many things and must say the documentation for draft sight is lacking (and I'm a little bit inexperienced)

 

can anyone here help me?

 

original lisp is added as a attachment.

I don't have draftsight, but you can do this manually?

 

So what steps do yo do to do this maunally? Copy from, the command line maybe

doesn't look like  dxfout isn't supported.

use this command instead.

What approac would i take for a block?

 

get the selected enitities in:

 

(setq zoek (ssget "X" (list(cons 62 6))))

 

and then make a block somehow?

Just do -wblock and follow the prompts so it then becomes.

 

(command "-wblock" fname "" "0,0" zoek "")
