FLATSHOT from lisp

[Anonymous]

Hi

it is possible to run FLATSHOT from lisp and to set the parameters?

If not is there any other routine, that works like FLATSHOT, that I can control from lisp?

Thanks Guido

Try this

The attachment in the first post has ALL the required files.

Hi Kerry

thanks for that ingeniously routine.

I have added SURFACE and REGION to the SelSet-filter because they are also used from FLATSHOT.

And I added a routine that unlocks all layers before your main routine, and that locks the layers after your main routine, else an error occurs if you have locked layers in the drawing.

This may also interest you... It creates FLATSHOT at the same place as your 3D MODEL...

The Swamp appears to be no longer accessible. If you still have the attached files you mentioned, would you be able to share them directly here?

Seems to be working just fine: are you just shy about signing up for free for access?

Been thinking about this for a while.

That image of you is a recent photo, right? 🙃

Looking forward to 2nd grade?  I mean teaching, of course.

Can kids understand AutoCAD before the age of reason? 🤔

No issue with signing up -- I just get a connection timeout.

Thanks for confirming, sounds like a problem for my IT.
