get dimensions for all poly lines with respect to grid lines

[archana96]

Hi ALL,

I Have a Lisp that gives dimensions concerning the grid for one particular object, but I need dimensions for all the objects in the drawing.

I am attaching the Lisp and drawing files...

please do the needful 

thank you...

Bonjour @archana96 

I am attaching the Lisp and drawing files...

I think you didn’t get to the end of your delivery

here is the file

Here is some code to help you get part the way there.

1. User makes selection returning just polylines on layer "FOOTING"

2. Then for each footing polyline...a "W"indow selection is done selecting polylines on layer "COL" within the given footing

This sets you up to point where you have entity name for a given footing polyline and entity names for the column polylines within.

Hope this helps.

Another, its still under development, does outside will add inside next.

The attached DimFtgs.lsp was built from ground up and defines command DIMFTGS.  This command has you select footings then dimensions all selected footings to the criteria per your drawing. Meaning...

1.  creates overall dimensions at top and left of footing
2.  creates continuous dimension, hitting column grid lines, at bottom and right

Function requires (based on your drawing):

1.  footing objects to be closed polyline rectangles on layer "FOOTING"
2.  column objects to be closed polyline rectangles on layer "COL"
3.  grid objects to be line objects on layer "CENTER"
4.  dimensions to use current dimension style

Let me know if this is the solution you were requesting.

It's been several days, with no reply, since proposed solution (DimFtgs.lsp) was posted, any thoughts?

@Rick_Tolleshaug_TSCwelcome to the world of forums, Elvis has left the building and so has @archana96

Thankyou Sir,

its Helpful

but i need the same as in feet drawings

[archana96]

It looks good but I need a feet and inches file. can you convert this from mm to feet ?

Hi,

this Lisp has nothing to do with Decimals/Millimeters or Feet, it's your dimstyle only.

Or does I miss something?

DimFtgs.lsp utilizes the current dimstyle, it does not manipulate units for dimensioning. To get feet you must set the current dimstyle (command DIMSTYLE) to one whose Primary Units are feet.
