Barcode Lisp

[Ron-C]

I need to add barcodes to autocad drawings
I have a Lisp file but it will only do 2 numbers.
I need to have it do 4 numbers
I have never done Lisp before.......and looking at this file
I can't fiqure out what part of the code would need to be
added to make it do 4 numbers.
Any one have one that will do 4 numbers?
Is there anyone here able to help me out and make this one
do 4 numbers.
Thanks
Ron

I don't know, but see whether this gets you to something without the 2-number limitation:

This lisp can make a barcode , as the same seen on all products.
I do not understand what do you mean with more than 2 number.
It can make 2 number up to 5 digits each.
See dwg in 2008.

Sorry I jumped the gun on this one..............
I thought the Lisp program was asking for the same 5 digits each time
Rough-day.....
Thanks guys !

Could you please run that barcode Lsp and see if it makes a difference
if you are zoomed-in close to the size of the barcode, or if you are zoomed out
say 10 X. The barcode should have 3 different width lines when made.
If I'm zoomed out a small amount it will produce all thin lines.
If I zoom out 10x it does not print all the lines, or the lines get all mixed-up.

Thanks
Ron

That sounds like you're running it with Object-Snap modes in effect. I didn't see anything in the routine to account for that. Try turning running Osnap off, and see whether it works right. If so, and if you don't know how to add code to handle that, you can find enormous numbers of routines on the Discussion Group that save the current OSMODE setting, turn Osnap off for the routine to run, and restore its value when the routine is done.

WOW ! you nailed it !
I had 0snap turned on so I could locate the barcode in a certain spot.
With the Osnap off .....the routine runs fine !
Thanks for the info ........I can go home for the weekend without that
hanging over my head ! I need to produce 1600 special name tags
with Barcode info ..( I know they make programs for this, but the labels
are special design I did in Autocad, and they wanted to add the barcode
info to cubicle name tags

Thanks Kent
Have a Great Weekend !

After you've been poking around here long enough, running Osnap becomes the first thing you think of when some routine is putting things in unexpected places. You *could* leave Osnap on at the beginning, so you can snap to your "certain spot" with it, and after that point in the routine, but before it actually draws anything, put in the code to turn Osnap off.
