Auto fit the 3d drawings in the each viewport of each layout

[Sekar]

Hi @BIGAL, 

I am not getting this.,

 

This is the output after placing text (001.png).

 

But what i am looking is like this. (002.png)

Can you explain a bit detail. Thanks

 

[BIGAL]

Ok a few things for it to work you have to work in UCS WORLD. The text must exist within the cupboards, I also set it to z=0

 When you select objects it also looks for the text within a new box containing all the parts.

2nd problem in new sample dwg you changed the name of the default layout I used Ph00. Can do a enter name but will leave that to you. The other option is can make layout names Ph01 Ph02 etc. 

 

I updated the code.

hi @BIGAL

where i am making mistake?

can you help me on this?

 

[BIGAL]

Ok a couple of rules 

UCS W Plan

Make sure mtext Z is zero use properties to reset.

The master layout name is Ph00, we can discuss later different names.

 

 I changed code to check for text,

(command "mtext" (list 10 185) (list 150 190) str "")
change to
(If (= str nil)
  (alert "no text label available ")
  (command "mtext" (list 10 185) (list 150 190) str "")
)

 Please try again.

Hi.,

I tried it, but getting the same error, i placed the text in the Z=0, and within the specified area coordinates first corner at 10,185 and second corner at 150,190.

[BIGAL]

No the text gets placed in the cupboards see image. 

[Sekar]

Hi.,

if you dont mind can you make a short video on placement of text. i am not getting it. i am getting error only.

how to place the text in the cupboards?

[BIGAL]

Again as Before

UCS W

PLAN

Move the text to inside the cupboard.

 

[Sekar]

Hi @BIGAL.,

 

Thanks, it works in the bricscad.  not in the autocad 2015. 

 

is is possible to set/ Change  the text height in the layout?

 

[BIGAL]

It will be the default text size and style being used in the Mtext line. Mine was using 2.5 so did not see issue but did make it do weird things to the size and style.

 

Look for the ctab line and add the 2 lines about setting text style and height.

(setvar 'ctab "Model")
(setvar 'textsize 2.5)
(setvar 'textstyle "Text R")

I had another go at it, I have changed the view direction code I did get some problems and not sure why , seems ok with your dwg, so please download again. Dont forget you can change the function name from WOW. Download code above.

Hi @BIGAL

 

Thanks. It works now
