Lisp for creating Multileader from object Extended Data

[TourajM]

Hi Dears,

I am a Land Surveyor, and in our daily work, we generate several CAD files. For example (File 2026-org.dwg) has lines, polylines, and blocks with attributes. Most of these objects have Extended Data, and we need to project these Data on the map; we manually use Multileader as shown in (file 2026.dwg). I am looking for a program or a lisp that can automate this progress and save much of our time. I would highly appreciate it if anyone could help me in this matter.

Best Regards,

I can see that the application name is "TrimbleName" but can't see any information that pertains to the diameter and "D" value from the XDATA, except of course Z-values on some of the entities which can be obtain without XDATA.

Guess you just wanted to label the elements via lisp ? Am I missing something here? in Civil 3D perhaps?

Thank you for the replay. The application name "TrimbleName" is because we process and create CAD files from our Survey Data with Trimble Business Center software. If you select any polyline or line and check the properties in the Extended Data tab, you will find the relative information such as Dia and Depth. as a sample of how I need to project or, as you said, Label, I shared File name 2026. DWG.

explanations, I have attached two screenshots.

Sure enough it's in Civil 3D,   

Not sure if with Civil 3D Enabler that information can be access thru Vanilla AutoCAD.

Dear hosneyalaa, I don't know how to thank you. This dll works perfectly and is amazing. If it is not too much to ask, is it possible to Modify it to select the blocks as well? We have a lot of Blocks, such as Trees, street lamp posts, etc, with Extended Data. Also, can we change the Command: TESTShortestNetworkPath to something shorter or simpler to be remembered?
Again I appreciate your time and support.

[TourajM]

As a sample of blocks in the drawing, I attached a file.

Hello, 
It seems that this feature is nog working for me. 
I put the dll-file on my local pc. 
Netload asks me to select the dll. So far so good. 
But the command to label is not working.

This tool seems amazing, is it something you would be willing to share as the .dll code?

[Jeff_M]

@jklinkeB8EEG the dll was posted in a RAR by @hosneyalaa in message 12.

[jklinkeB8EEG]

I was actually wanting to see how this .dll was coded in .NET, if they were willing to sare.

[TourajM]

Sorry for the late response; I was sick for 2weeks with Corona. The command is: EXTENDED_DATA

[TourajM]

Thank you for your reply.
