Auto Dimensioning

[Lindsay-CAD]

I have a routine to automatically dimensions Elevations of Tilt-Up Panels, Rectangular Closed Polylines, just by picking the outline. Works great if there are only 4 sides. If there is an opening, such as an overhead door, The dimensions get put in the wrong place.  The routine is based on points for the LLC, LRC, ULC, & URC. 

Attached is the lisp routine and a sample drawing

I have 2 similar routines that automatically dimension the interior structural components just by selecting the outline of the panel. 

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated on how to deal with the additional points

Thanks

As suggested write down the steps you would do manually and see what can be made into a lisp. If you use LOGFILEON it will write a file of everything you do on the screen, LOGFILEOFF stops it recording. Under Options, Files, Logfile, you can see where your logfile is being saved in. I have mine set to a simple directory as default setting has lots of sub directories.
