X-REF open

Rui Dias

Hello,I know how I can edit my X-REF from within my live file. But how do I open an X-REF?Thanks again.

Hans De Backer

You probably refer to acad's XOPEN command, which prompts the user to select an entity belonging to the X-Ref that should be opened? XOPEN is not available in Bricscad V9, we plan to add it in the coming months.

Rui DiasIf you need an XOPEN command, you can use this lisp

(DEFUN C:XOPEN () (VLA-ACTIVATE (VLA-OPEN (VLA-GET-DOCUMENTS (VLAX-GET-ACAD-OBJECT)) (VLAX-GET-PROPERTY (VLAX-ENAME->VLA-OBJECT (CAR (ENTSEL))) 'PATH))) (PRINC) )

Hi,

This is a great  fuction,

But you can only use it for Saved Path (=> x:\drawing.dwg)!

Need a solution for Found Path (=> .\drawing.dwg). 

 

P.S. at 2008 = we plan to add it in the coming months.

It is now 2010

You can prefix the DWGPREFIX variable if the path is relative. A modified version of the posted example that should work (with no error checks):

 

;;;============================================================================;;; Simple function to prefix DWGPATH on a relative path(defun abs-to-dwg-path ( path / )    (if (= "." (substr path 1 1))        (setq path             (strcat                 (getvar "DWGPREFIX")                 path))    )    path);;;============================================================================(DEFUN C:XOPEN ()     (VLA-ACTIVATE         (VLA-OPEN             (VLA-GET-DOCUMENTS                 (VLAX-GET-ACAD-OBJECT)            )            (abs-to-dwg-path                (VLAX-GET-PROPERTY                     (VLAX-ENAME->VLA-OBJECT                         (CAR (ENTSEL))                    )                    'PATH)                )            )        )     (PRINC) )
