Advance Steel custom commands-share your ideas

[acbsdesign]

Hello,

It will be nice to learn more about custom commands / combination of Autocad and Advance Steel commands improving productivity. 

To colleagues willing to share-Thank you.

Here is a tiny example:

"Hide parts with identical numbers"-used when parts are detailed using drawings styles.

^C^C_AstM5equalpartsMarkSame \;AstM4CommSelectMarkedObjects ;_AstM4SwitchReprMode off

And another one:

"Hide Similar Advance Steel Objects":

^C^C_SelectSimilar \;_AstM4SwitchReprMode off

Regards, 

Ilko Dimitrov

Hi, 
I was referencing the geometry of the tale:

But it behaves the same way as mine when there is a single line only added.

Thank you anyway.

What happened with the pinned thread-it is still useful.

Looked for one old command to restore, it wasn't there.

Assuming we are still allowed to use custom commands.

Or we have to pay to a third-party developer in order to use them?

is sounds like...weird folks, very, very sick and weird out there.

[Sebastian_Eiche]

What do you mean?

Is this thread unpinned? I don't see it correctly on my phone. Not sure who could pin or unpin a thread. 

[bigcarl5000kg]

No community feedback allowed ... where are the Like buttons?

[acbsdesign]

@Sebastian_Eiche 

Yes, sir, it is unpinned.

@Sebastian_Eiche 

It looks like someone is trying to put down everything about AS, even the good stuff not to be seen anymore.

[acbsdesign]

wow...what a day. Wish I could turn the clock back to yesterday.

[Sebastian_Eiche]

Maybe something went wrong by pinning the other new thread?

@handjonathan 

Could you please pin this thread again?

[bigcarl5000kg]

back to the 1 day before subscriptions 

[acbsdesign]

@Sebastian_Eiche 

And no No Like buttons...

[bigcarl5000kg]

my wish for this Christmas is...may Advance Steel survive it in good health

@bigcarl5000kg 

👍

Yup unpinned, what is going on?

Although, I think we should probably start a thread part 2. This one has gotten quite big. In the later pages, it turned into people looking for tech support lol.

@Julio_Soto 

Unpinned, not allowed to Like etc. It looks like they are trying to hide what is good in AS.

It is all done on purpose.

Hi @Sebastian_Eiche 

Thanks for reaching out on this issue. As community managers, we are tasked with keeping the forums structured. We have set criteria around the validity and amount of floated (pinned) topics we have on each forum board. Due to these reasons, I have unfloated this topic. 

If you wish to chat with me to discuss this further, please drop me a DM, and we can have a quick call.

@handjonathan 

I don't know if you have noticed this, but we did-using custom commands improved our work.

So if you wish to clean the unnecessary posts-please do so.

But to try to hide it as not important.., I don't know what to say.

We are all humans, we can understand.

Where did the Like buttons go?
