Batt Insulation Lisp Problem.

[Anonymous]

I have found a lisp routine in customer files and it works great. My
problem is that it sets osmode to 0. Is there a way to set it back to the
way I had it? I not sure how to make this work in the lisp routine file.
I've tried a few different things but I can't figure it out. I'll post the
file I use in CF, if someone wouldn't mind taking a look at it. Or does
anyone have a lisp routine that does what I want!

Thanks,

The customization group is the best place for these types of questins but
the answer is yes ...

Add to the beginning...

(setq OSM(getvar "osmode"))

At the end....

(setvar "osmode" OSM)

Oh I also get the following error, it doesn't seem to create a problem for
me, at least I don't see one. Except the osnap problem.

Command: batt
Enter start point (Left to Right)
Enter end point.
Enter insulation thickness. <3.5">
; error: no function definition: DGTR

Before the LISP routine sets OSMODE to 0, store the current value in a variable, preferably a local one, then restore it at the end, after the insulation is drawn.

(setq curosmo (getvar "OSMODE")) ; Store current value.

(setvar "OSMODE" curosmo) ; Reset initial value.

If you want to be really clever, you would have an error trapping routine that would be able to restore the values should the routine crash before the value is reset, but that is one area (of many) that I have not mastered.

Clint,
As Chip said in the ADT newsgroup the best place to get support for these
types of question is from the customization group.

The dgtr is an added routine that CJ has called separately in another
program, it essentially changes degrees to radians. Please check customer
files for a modified version of CJ's routine.

Clint,
Don't you have ADTcadPac? There is a routine to do batt insulation for
walls and an undocumented command.

Type BATTINSUL and select the points.

Let me know if you have any questions.
