a custom button but no idea how to set up
a custom button but no idea how to set up
(OP)
well this is kinda a multi part question first im trying to set up a button to change a selected object to a set layer or the layer of another object
but the other question i have is what would be easier
a lsp that
offsets a lin 6" then shortens it by 1.5" on each end and setting it to a perticular layer
or a button that allows the person to do this one thing at a time
but the other question i have is what would be easier
a lsp that
offsets a lin 6" then shortens it by 1.5" on each end and setting it to a perticular layer

RE: a custom button but no idea how to set up
^C^Cselect;\_offset;(offset distance needed);_change;p;p;la;(getvar(CLAYER));
the last part i think is what is not working maybe i have the sintax wrong coould some one give me a hand
im thinking instead of getvar it should be setvar there am i right

RE: a custom button but no idea how to set up
^C^Cselect;\;_change;p;;p;la;(getvar"CLAYER");;
it only changes the layer of the selected objects to the current layer im still working on getting it to do the offset

RE: a custom button but no idea how to set up
well here it is the real thing this time i think so far i can only get it to do 1 offset at a time cause the offset command looks for only one object at a time so picking a selection set wont work but if anone wants it there it is oh and if you want to know the macro for just changeing an object(s) to the current layer here it is tooo
^C^Cselect;\_change;P;;p;la;(getvar "clayer");;
