EIA Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Let´s say I have a square and some lines passing through it, like in the image above. Is there any lisp routine (or maybe autocad command?) out there that lets you select objects and then a polygon so autocad trims everything out of that polygon and leaves only what's inside?

lastknownuser Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Autocad EXTRIM command, select polygon and click outside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Another that is very reliable like Extrim is Cookiecutter.lsp. Sometimes use as Extrim has not worked properly. If you want to automate say pick rectang then outside all done, inside Extrim is a lisp function that can be called from lisp. Pt a hint use extmax. (if (null etrim) (load "extrim.lsp")) (etrim ent pt) CookieCutter2_v1.0.lsp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLW210 Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 There is a 1.1 version of CookieCutter2 at CookieCutter2 - more fun with ET extrim (theswamp.org) This may be the latest, though I never saw this at the Swamp --- CookieCutter2 v1.2.lsp GitHub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EIA Posted June 7 Author Share Posted June 7 (edited) I forgot to say that I am currently working on AutoCAD LT, and as it seems you get Extrim from Express Tools which is an AutoCAD Mechanical thing, is there any way to do this anyway for us LT users? edit - does CookieCutter use extrim for anyhting? I only read the first answer when I sent the reply tbh Edited June 7 by EIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven P Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 You can try it, LT doesn't support all LISP functions so it might not work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 (edited) You need LT2024 at least, but all hope is not lost, manually Trim select the rectang, Enter, then "F" draw a shape around rectang, Enter should be done. Edited June 7 by BIGAL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
