Autocad 2016 mac version vlisp and vlide

greypate — Sat, 31 Dec 2016 06:12:11 GMT

I used to MS Windows Autocad 2016, and a month ago I using Autocad 2016 for Mac in Mac Notebook. There is a problem then.

1. Can I reach the resolution command " vlisp " and "vlide" as like Windows Autocad 2016 ?

2. Autocad 2016 in Mac, why can't I run the command line " vlide " ?

And what is the method "vlide enabled" ?

Welcome to Autodesk Forums!

Hi,

VisualLISP is not available in AutoCAD for Mac, and you cannot use VLIDE in it.
AutoCAD for Mac is not straight 1:1 port of its Windows-based counterpart.
Please refer to the comparison matrix at this location:

for full details.

Hi Maxim -

I don't see anything mentioning the Lisp IDE (or lack thereof) at that link you provided... There are numerous other tools found on the Windows release that are missing on Mac as well... We're not talking about differences per se, but tools that simply weren't ported over... So as a true comparison between the Windows and Mac products, I guess it's fairly useless, eh?

Cheers.
