JimmyJohn Posted August 27, 2024 Posted August 27, 2024 Title above! I need help creating a lisp routine to do the above. As I want to be able to draw a square around an area, select the square, run the function, and have it all break so I can cleanly excise anything within the selected area. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Quote
marko_ribar Posted August 28, 2024 Posted August 28, 2024 I don't follow you... But perhaps, CAB's BreakObjects.lsp can help... Here is link : https://www.cadtutor.net/forum/files/file/51-breakobjectslsp/ Quote
BIGAL Posted August 29, 2024 Posted August 29, 2024 Agree with @marko_ribar you can then look for segments of a length and delete. Quote
SLW210 Posted August 29, 2024 Posted August 29, 2024 If the end game is to isolate what's inside the square, why the need to break anything? Maybe post a .dwg with before and after noting what you need to do with objects in the square. Quote
Steven P Posted August 29, 2024 Posted August 29, 2024 I got distracted today, have half a LISP that will delete anything outside a polyline (good to shrink a drawing size if I only want a small part of say, a plan).... it didn't break lines and delete any outside the selected area.. but from there might be an easy conversion to what you want. In the office tomorrow so got to look half busy at least, might have another look Quote
