Break from VB

Anonymous · ‎05-31-2002

I need send a break to autocad (or esc) with sendcommand method (or similar)
but don´t works to end any pending command.

I use acadobj.sendcommand(chr(27)) but this don´t work.

Any ideas?

Sendcommands only work when the acadscreen is visible and active. But I
assume that this is the case. When do you want to cancel? Do you want to
cancel a running code? Or do you want to interrupt an user action when an
event is triggered?

Public Sub Escape()

'Simulate the Escape key being pressed
On Error Resume Next
ThisDrawing.ActiveDocument.SendCommand Chr$(27)

End Sub

Using SendCommand may not work when you want it to due to the fact that it is asyncronous. Try the following function.

Public Sub CancelCommand()
SendKeys "{ESC}"
End Sub

Hmm, tough one. VBA apps won't start when there are
still commands in progress. So no command can be send in a way through vba. No
sendkeys and no sendcommand. If you start your VBA-application with a
button, you can put a cancel command in the commandline behind the button. Or if
you start it through a lisp routine, put a cancel in the routine before starting
you're application. If you start an application with an event in VBA you might
be able to cancel it with sendkeys or sendcommand but I don't think that will
work....

It sounds like you're trying to initiate a macro from the command line
while in the middle of a command. If that's the case, then I'd say
that's a problem. But it's not just with vba, it's with any acad command
. Even transparent commands can't be initiated from the prompt while in
the middle of something else. You have to kill it with the esc key or
with a ^C^C from a button. But that's normal behaviour.

To correct myself, you can use transparents from the command prompt but
only with the use of '_
You can't execute a zoom in the middle of a line with Z straight from
the pgp file, you have to use '_Z
