Storing multiple drawing variations for use in AutoCAD

[Anonymous]

I have to make minibuses on a daily bases with different variables like seat placing and such my question is is it possible to make like a modular interface where i can store all the possible seat places and different heights and all my variables to make my life easier.

Thanks in advance.

@Anonymous,

You can use one of these programming languages, Autolisp, vlisp, dcl, vba, vb.net, C#.net etc.

Autolisp is the easliest.

You may want to look into using Dynamic Blocks with Visibility States for every type of scenario (assuming you have standard measurements that you use over and over again), or, you can look into Dynamic Arrays where you can change the spacing and number of seats dynamically

for smaller data sets i would definitely checkout dynaimc blocks as @murray-clack suggests. If the variable change a lot of odependent data i migth go the lisp/scripting route as @KimBrunz suggested.

Hi @Anonymous,

I see that you are visiting as a new member. Welcome to the Autodesk Community!

From the description you provide I suspect that dynamic blocks might be the first step to take. You are welcome to attach a drawing or two if you want me to take a look at your exact process.
