Error with polylines not being recognized.

[Mikeyshannon]

Hi!

I am troubleshooting a drawing that is to be uploaded to Serraview. Everything looks good but the polylines are not being recognized. The properties show as polylines but running FindGap lsp, I get Error no polylines found. Publishing to Serraview gives me the same type of error. I have flattened, purged, redrawn the polylines and recreated the drawing. Anyone seen this issue?

Thanks for any help!

There is polyline and lightweight polyline.

Convert to LW poly and see if it works.

Tried converting, didn't have and affect.

Two things no one here can test: for #1, you need to go ask "them" for help, for #2, may I ask why you opted not to share that LISP and a DWG sample file for someone else here can see your work and review your LISP code? Do so now please.

[Mikeyshannon]

This is the drawing but, I cannot share the lisp routine. Company policy.

Well, there are no POLYLINE objects in your entire drawing, so that mystery is solved

Next time you encounter this problem, take the time to validate your LISP findings with built in tools like PROPERTIES.

[Mikeyshannon]

Not sure why you are giving attitude but, the drawing I sent has polylines. See attached. 

If you don't want to help then ignore my post and keep it moving.

Hi,

the drawing I sent has polylines. See attached. 

Download your file CLICK and select all objects, check it again

He like to help, you can tell by the fact that he took his time and addressed the problem.
PS. Anyone can make a mistake or just be wrong, EVERYONE, including you.

Think about, we can check the .dwg only, we can't check your tool!

(perhaps you checked another file, OR you checked it after you reid to run the Tool?)

Additional: If your PLINETYPE is set to 2, set it to 0 and try your Tool again.

(don't forget to set it back to the previous value)

Just confirming that the drawing as posted does not contain any Polylines here, either, including after ensuring that all Layers are thawed and on, Zooming to the Extents to not miss anything in selection, and checking the Paper space Layouts.  Did you post a different one than you're actually working with?

That's not the DWG file you share with us here: try again? We can only go by what you share, nothing more.

I had to use Trueview to convert this drawing to 2007 version so I can open it, it shows there are polyline.

Very strange.

[cadffm]

very strange.

I tried the same with TrueView2021 (dwg2007), but opened by ACAD2013 and ACAD2021,

nothing changed, no plines.

[Mikeyshannon]

No this is the only drawing.

This is so strange. This is the only drawing I am working with. I did just find a ton of filters in the layers which I deleted. I am using 2021. I didn't create this drawing, was asked to help figure it out. I did also just find a couple of odd views which I also just deleted. I have deleted all of the hatching as well. I don't get why one of my co-workers opened the drawing and sees the polylines. We also tried recreating the drawing by moving the arch and furn into a clean sheet and re-drawing all of the polylines. Same error. Here is the drawing again.

Your first shared file did not contain the layer A-AREA or any of the Polyline outlines in it.

This new second share does, and these are all Plines (I changed all the other color layers so these stand out)

So... these are PLINEs, and they are in your DWG file, so either your not-sharable LISP is at fault somehow, or like you did here, used it on the wrong file instead of the correct file. We can't help you with that LISP without it. Sorry.

How would you like to proceed?

[Patchy]

This drawing is different, 3d view shows a lot of lines that have different Z

Flatten them and Pedit, use join if you really need them to be Polylines

[cadffm]

totally different files - you have more than just one.

Differently birthdays

1.upload left, the 2.on the right.

Command: DWGPROPS

They have different positions of the content and the one labled CIR-01 and CIR-01

and the other one is labled by CIR-01- AND CIR-02!

Okay, back to your problem.

a) Try my attached drawing! If your Lisp still doesn't work on it (same error), we can't help.

or

b) very last idea: Share one drawing what is working! (try it with one file, do not save the result and share the original file)

Perhaps we can see "your" issue then. Wrong Layer, wrong widh or something.
